Energy crisis is one of the serious problems which Pakistan is facing at present.the energy shortfall fluctuates between 4000MW-9000MW. this situation has arisen because of apathy of government,provincial mistrusts and lack of conservative measures.the energy crisis has brought serious consequences which have affected the political,social and economic sectors of our country. To prevent these adverse effects we should adopt
conservative measures and produce energy through alternative resources.
