ENERGY PRODUCTION UNDER SUKI KANARI HYDROPOWER PROJECT WILL BEGIN IN 2022

The 885 megawatts Suki Kanari hydropower project will begin production in 2022, said an official. “We have completed more than 55 per cent of work and expect that the power production will begin in 2022,” project deputy director (commercial and technical) Bilal Khan told reporters. The Suki Kanari project, whose site is on the Kunhar River in Kaghan valley of Mansehra district, is the first energy venture being executed as part of the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. He said 760 electric towers had been installed to link the powerhouse with the dam’s tunnels, while Rs33 million had been paid to landowners. Mr Bilal said almost all due payments had been made to the owners of over 8,000 kanals of land acquired for the project.
