Islamabad: The Asian Development Bank (ADB) has approved a $200 million loan to modernise Pakistan’s power distribution infrastructure and improve distribution companies’ ability to deliver reliable electricity.
According to a statement released by the Manila-based lender, ADB’s Power Distribution Strengthening Project aims to upgrade and modernise distribution systems to meet Pakistan’s rapidly growing electricity demand.
