Decline in Pakistan’s Electricity Production: Insights from February 2025

Karachi, Pakistan – A recent report from Topline Securities has revealed that electricity production in Pakistan witnessed a significant decline of 15% month-on-month in February 2025. This downturn is attributed to reduced demand resulting from sluggish industrial activity and an increasing transition of consumers towards solar energy solutions.

Yearly Comparisons Show a Troubling Trend

According to the analysis, total electricity production dropped by 3% year-on-year, totaling 81,738 GWh over the first eight months of the 2024-25 financial year (from July to February). This marks a decrease from the 84,317 GWh produced during the same period last year, indicating a concerning trend in energy output.

February Sees Notable Decrease in Production

In February 2025, Pakistan’s electricity production fell by 2% year-on-year and 15% month-on-month, amounting to 6,945 GWh. This decline paints a stark picture of the country’s current energy landscape, emphasizing the need for urgent attention to the underlying causes.

Cost of Electricity Production Also Declines

The report highlights a 13% annual decrease in the cost of electricity production, with a more pronounced 30% drop on a month-to-month basis in February 2025. During the initial eight months of the current financial year, the cost reduced from 3% to approximately PKR 8.8 per unit, suggesting that economic factors are also at play.

Factors Contributing to Reduced Electricity Demand

Financial analysts attribute the reduced electricity production chiefly to a sluggish industrial sector. Muhammad Waqas Ghani, research manager at JS Global Capital Ltd., noted a direct correlation between the lack of industrial activity and a decline in large-scale manufacturing numbers (LSM). This downward trend in industrial activity has significantly impacted the country’s overall energy needs.

The Shift Towards Solar Energy

Another critical factor is the rapid adoption of solar energy among residential consumers. With the rising costs of electricity from the national grid, many households are turning to solar solutions as a viable alternative. Commercial consumers are also increasingly setting up their own captive power plants fueled by gas and coal, further reducing their reliance on the national grid. This shift indicates a broader transition toward alternative energy sources.

Government Initiatives to Address Electricity Challenges

In response to the escalating energy crisis, Pakistan has been actively pursuing reforms aimed at alleviating budgetary pressures. Recent governmental measures include plans to renegotiate contracts with independent power producers (IPPs) to lower electricity costs and tackle the mounting circular debt issue. The federal cabinet approved a plan in January to revisit agreements with 14 IPPs, signifying a proactive approach to manage the energy sector effectively.

Conclusion: Navigating Pakistan’s Energy Challenges

The ongoing decline in electricity production, compounded by the transition to solar energy and reduced industrial activity, presents significant challenges for Pakistan’s energy landscape. As the country seeks to implement reforms and mitigate costs, the path ahead will require careful navigation to ensure a sustainable and efficient energy future.
