Electricity distribution companies of Pakistan


Distribution companies (DISCOs) are companies under Pakistan Electric Power Company (PEPCO) responsible for distribution of electricity in their respective allocated areas. They buy electricity from producers such as Water and Power Development Authority (WAPDA), GENCOs, PAEC and other private Independent Power Producers (IPPs) and sell it to their respective area customers. All companies are owned by the Government of Pakistan except K-Electric, which was privatized in 2005.[1] Unfortunately, most of the electricity distribution companies in Pakistan are highly inefficient and leads to huge line losses of electricity.
