The whole operation was completed safely and all the parameters of the relevant grid equipment were found within normal limits, as per the bulletin.

The statement further added that after energizing the 500 KV system, CPHGC has achieved energization of start-up transformer and 10 kV auxiliary power system, and is preparing for the system commissioning of Unit 1.

According to the press release, the milestone was achieved in collaboration with the production and technology departments of CPHGC and National Transmission & Dispatch Company.

Speaking at the occasion, Mr. Zhao Yonggang, CEO, CPHGC thanked the officials of the NTDC and said he looks forward to the continued support of the NTDC. “The achievement of this major milestone also indicates that we are on track on meeting the deadline of August 2019 for the COD”, stated in a press release.

Furthermore, as per bulletin, Zhao Yonggang said that CPHGC is a prime example of the bonds of friendship that exist between Pakistan and China.
