Hydel Power Projects are going to be Completed this Year

According to the Water and Power Development Authority (WAPDA), three to five projects of hydel power would be completed by 2016. The producing capacity of this hydel power projects is approximately 5,789 MW power. If the project runs successfully it will accomplish all the energy and power requirements of the country. Some of the basic information of all the hydel power projects is listed here:

Diamer-Bashra Dam: This dam is considered as the lifeline for full-filling the national economic needs. This river Indus dam project will also meet all the needs of electricity and agricultural. Power generation, controlling the flood circumstances and water storage are the three main benefits of the Diamer-Bashra dam. This hydel power project has a rate of producing 4500 megawatts electricity and the water storage capacity is about to eight million acre-feet to meet the entire needs of irrigation and power.
Golen Gol Hydro Power Project: This project is under construction and will be completed this December 2016 as per Pakistan Water and Power Development Authority (WAPDA). This dam is constructed in the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KPK) district the Chitral. The resulting power producing a capacity of Golen Gol hydropower will be 106 MW. This least-cost energy generation plan is executed in order to solve the electricity problem of the Chitral district as an emergency. This project is running by the WAPDA on the basis of priority harness the indigenous hydropower resources of the country to improve the ratio of hydel electricity in the National Grid, help reduces electricity tariff and provides relief to the consumers. The Golen Gol plant will produce 436 million units of electricity to the system.
