The story of Engro Energy goes back to 2008, when a fully owned subsidiary was incorporated by Engro Corporation to develop power projects in Pakistan and beyond. As they say, the rest has been history.
Moving further in its efforts to improve energy efficiency and ecosystem in the country, Engro Energy formed the Sindh Engro Coal Mining Company in collaboration with its partners to unearth and mine one of the world’s largest lignite coal reserves in Thar – achieving a first for the country in terms of becoming one of the only private sector entity with the engineering capability, capacity and expertise to operate and optimize an open-pit mine. Soon thereafter, the Company ventured into establishment of 2×330 MW mine-mouth power plants in Tharparkar through a dedicated subsidiary, Engro Powergen Thar Private Limited. The culmination of these Thar coal projects from inception to financial close and including the stellar project management, which remains inclusive and collaborative, is testament to our organizational knowledge and skill in delivering projects of significant magnitude and strategic importance.
Engro Energy Limited owns and operates Engro Energy Qadirpur Limited, a 217 MW combined cycle power plant and the first green facility in Pakistan to utilize permeate gas for reduced carbon emissions.
A joint venture between Government of Sindh and Engro Energy Limited with the vision to bring energy security to Pakistan by utilizing coal from Thar.
The 660 MW power project in Thar Block II, Sindh, Pakistan is a pioneering project in generating electricity using indigenous lignite coal from the Tharparkar district.
Engro Energy Services Limited has been established with the primary objective of analyzing potential opportunities in the power sector and undertaking service-related contracts for Independent Power Projects (IPPs).
