Pakistan is facing a serious and increasing energy crisis over the past five years. The country generates electricity primarily through thermal, hydel, and nuclear power, but faces political instability, fluctuating oil prices, old equipment, and mismanagement that have exacerbated the crisis. Short-term solutions include reactivating closed power plants and importing electricity, while mid-term plans focus on solar and wind projects and long-term plans center around coal power, exploring new reserves, and international agreements. The government must pursue consistent policies to utilize coal and other resources to overcome the energy crisis.
