The Power Division spokesperson has issued an important clarification regarding the Peak Hours Relief Strategy.

Islamabad: April 14, 2026

The statement explained that no load management is being carried out in HESCO (Hyderabad Electric Supply Company) and K-Electric under the 2.25-hour peak hours relief plan.

This is due to the availability of low-cost power generation in the southern region and its supply to these two distribution companies. The spokesperson noted that furnace oil-based generation does not significantly impact these areas. In addition, sufficient electricity from alternative sources is available in the south.

Since this electricity is primarily supplied to HESCO and K-Electric, it has been decided not to subject consumers in these areas to unnecessary inconvenience under the peak hours strategy.
