Electricity Survey Coming Soon
September 26th, 2010
The government has decided to initiate a survey of electricity consumers to address issues of power theft, line losses, power companies’ losses and circular debt.
According to sources in the ministry of finance, power distribution companies will conduct the survey, which is part of a broader strategy chalked out by the Asian Development Bank, the World Bank and the Planning Commission to tackle the energy crisis.
A survey for the Islamabad Electric Supply Company (IESCO) has already been finalised as part of a pilot project. Feedback from the project will be funnelled into finalising the survey for power distribution companies.
