Engro Energy Limited (formerly Engro Powergen Limited) (اینگرو انرجی لمیٹڈ) is a fully owned subsidiary of Engro Corporation to develop power projects in Pakistan.
Engro PowerGen
Their first intervention in the energy sphere was launched in the form of Engro Powergen Qadirpur Limited which owns and operates a 217 MW power plant in Qadirpur, Ghotki and runs on permeate gas which was previously being flared. This unique aspect makes the Engro Powergen Qadirpur plant one of the few green power plants in Pakistan earning carbon credits.
Engro Energy Thar Projects
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. 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.
