Minister for Energy, Sardar Awais Ahmad Khan Leghari, has emphasized the government's commitment to power sector reforms and expressed confidence that these measures would address ongoing challenges and stabilize the financial structure of the sector. In an interview with a private news channel, he said the government has proposed its reform plans and energy vision to the National Energy Administration of China. He further stated that the finance minister and other officials have engaged with Chinese bankers for potential investments in Pakistan's power sector. Another key component of these reforms, involves converting electricity generation plants from imported coal to local coal, which could significantly lower the cost per unit of electricity.
