Wapda Advocates for Diamer Basha Dam Project in Beijing

The Water and Power Development Authority (Wapda) is actively working to highlight the importance of the Diamer Basha dam project during Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif's upcoming trip to Beijing. This project holds significant promise for Pakistan's energy sector and overall development.

Wapda has put forth several strategies to garner support for the project. One such approach involves offering a stake in the 1,450-megawatt Ghazi Barotha hydropower project to Kuwait. Additionally, Wapda is advocating for the inclusion of the Diamer Basha project in the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC), a flagship initiative aimed at enhancing connectivity and promoting economic growth between the two countries.

By showcasing the Diamer Basha dam project as a key component of Pakistan's energy infrastructure and seeking international partnerships, Wapda aims to secure the necessary resources and support to advance this vital undertaking.

The efforts of Wapda to promote the Diamer Basha dam project underscore the significance of sustainable energy development in Pakistan. Through strategic collaborations and proactive engagement, Wapda is paving the way for a brighter and more energy-efficient future for the nation.
