Pakistan's government is inviting bids for its first 400MW electricity wheeling auction, signaling an exit from power procurement and the launch of a competitive market.
The Pakistani government has invited bids for its first 400-megawatt electricity wheeling auction, signalling its intention to withdraw from power procurement. This initiative marks the launch of the Competitive Trading Bilateral Contracts Market (CTBCM), a system designed to introduce competition into the energy sector.
This move aims to liberalise the power market, particularly for large consumers, by allowing them to source electricity directly from generators. The government's exit from procurement is intended to foster a more efficient and market-driven energy landscape in Pakistan.
