Two more Private companies to establish Coal based plant in Thar

Sindh Engro Coal Mining Company (SECMC) has been directed by Sindh Chief Minister Syed Murad Ali Shah to begin the expansion of mining work in its phase-I project so that two more private companies may establish their coal-based power plants in Thar.
While presiding over a meeting at CM house he was told that Hubco was setting up two power projects of 330MW each based on Thar-coal. Thar Energy Ltd (TEL) and Thal Nova Thar Limited (TN) have re-partnerd with Hubco. These projects are part of Mines Phase-II of Sindh Coal Mining Company Block-II. The TN is also in advanced stage of arranging finances.
The Hubco has already begun work and wants the provincial government to execute LBOD scheme under which water would be provided to the coal power projects. Nespak has been appointed for study of pre-treatment system for LBOD. Work would begin once the study papers are submitted and approved by the chief minister. TEL water requirement is in June 2020, therefore, pre-treatment system would be made before June 2020.
