Importance of Electricity
Energy the lifeline of economic development.
Pakistan is the poorest of the poor as far as energy
consumption for capital is concerned.
Per capita energy consumption, is one of the indicator of
Industrial development and quality of life of a country.
Pakistan has 14 Million BTUs as compared to 92 Million
BTUs of Malaysia and 34 Million BTUs for China.
Per Capita electrical consumption per year of Pakistan is
470kWh, & of Malaysia is 2,708 & of Singapore is 6,775

Effects of the energy crisis
Energy crisis in our beloved country Pakistan
has brutally affected the whole organizations
and even we can say complete system of
Pakistan.
We can see that hundreds and thousands of
manufacturing units that do not contain their
own power generation capacity
(producing energy through heavy power
generators or in some cases through solar
systems)are closing down with high rate, and
as a result unemployment in Pakistan is
increasing.

As we know that most of the enterprises even cannot be operate
economically when power (Electricity) is accessible just only for
few hours in a whole day, this condition again varies in different
cities of Pakistan, and you can assume that if this is a situation of
our big industrial cities then what would be the situation of our
villages and the innocent villagers.
Unfortunately, unluckily, and sadly in Pakistan, in spite of
availability of all huge natural resources that are required to
produce electricity, real solution to meet the energy requirement
of the nation have never been achieved.
As a result we can see in our beloved country Pakistan, Pakistans
economic, industrial, and social growth has been greatly suffered,
and Pakistani peoples are facing very big problems due to the
crisis of Electricity or Energy.

Most of the people have a positive behavior
regarding energy saving.
Lack of concentration towards energy saving
results in wastage of energy.

An energy source that
can be used instead
are fossil fuels

Sun, Water, Wind,Waves
and Tides can also be
used as the alternative
source of energy.
