Pakistan is facing a severe energy crisis with electricity outages of 18 hours per day. The crisis is affecting the country's economy and is expected to worsen with shortages of 1000-2000 MW currently and over 3000 MW projected next year. In addition, Pakistan is facing shortages of 80 million tons of oil and 27 million tons of natural gas annually. The key causes of the crisis include fluctuating international oil prices, inefficient distribution systems with 15-20% energy losses, and a lack of implementation following seminars and conferences. Recommendations include paying off debts, investing in distribution infrastructure to reduce losses, converting inefficient gas plants, and developing solar and coal energy resources.
