35. • The total power generation capacity in Pakistan is of the order of
17,457 MW
• This includes the hydropower generation capacity of 5,013 MW
• The thermal power generation capacity of 12,169 MW
• The nuclear power generation capacity of 462 MW
• The potential for hydropower generation in Pakistan is of the order
of 54,527 MW
• Currently short fall is about 7,000 MW in Pakistan
CONCLUSION

36. RECOMMENDATIONS
Dams & Hydro-Power Projects should be preferred over
other sources of power generation, as it is
Economical
Multi Purpose
Long lasting
Environment friendly
The under construction & future projects should be
completed so as to control floods & their destructions
