Oracle Power completes grid study for 1.3 GW hybrid plant in Pakistan
Findings were submitted for review and approval by authorities.
Oracle Power has announced the completion of its transmission and grid interconnection study for its proposed 1.3 gigawatt hybrid renewable energy plant in Sindh, Pakistan.
According to the company, comprehensive load flow studies showed the reliability of the proposed transmission scheme under normal conditions.
The study has been submitted to state-owned National Transmission & Despatch Company for review and approval by relevant authorities. This will be critical in advancing the project towards implementation.
“This milestone marks the culmination of extensive investigative studies and sets the stage for the next phase of detailed engineering design. The findings for the study provide a solid foundation for securing potential off-take agreements for power,” Oracle Power CEO Naheed Memon said.
The project, located in Jhimpir, Sindh Province, will comprise 800 megawatts (MW) of solar project and 500 MW of wind power. Early this year, the company secured permission to develop the plant.
