Electricity for 100 homes Being Generated through Wind Turbines by Pakistani Fishermen

Shah Kamal, a resident of Kharochhan, 150 kilometer south of Karachi has derived a way to produce electricity, initially for his own home and then for 100 homes of his small island.

Earlier this island had no electricity supply, and fishermen felt that Government of Pakistan is not well placed to provide electricity – hence, they took the initiative and installed 5 turbines to lit 100 homes with 2 bulbs each.

Pakistan has huge potential available throughout the country for generating wind energy. Its need of the hour to work on alternate and private energy resources to meet our energy demands.
