The symposium will enable deliberations on the regulatory and commercial aspects of this transition.”

He further said ”in continuation of the framework approval and remarkable implementation progress on Competitive Trading Bilateral Contracts Market (CTBCM), we would like to acknowledge the market liberalization initiatives of National Electric Power Regulatory Authority (NEPRA).” This symposium is supported by the Government of Sindh, NEPRA, Overseas Investors Chamber of Commerce & Industry (OICCI) and Corporate Pakistan Group (CPG).
