Load Shedding Schedule Announced for Islamabad

Islamabad Electric Supply Company (IESCO) has declared the initiation of load shedding throughout the city on Monday, citing low demand as the primary reason.

In an official communication on X, formerly Twitter, IESCO highlighted the emergence of a gap between the supply and demand in its region, necessitating the implementation of load management measures.

The announcement specified that load shedding would be carried out across all circles for a duration of six to eight hours.

It was emphasized that the load management would cease once the supply was restored to its optimal levels.

Additionally, IESCO shared another update from an additional director within the company, revealing that 17 feeders in the G-9 area had been manually switched off due to a fire incident.

Simultaneously, the Peshawar Electric Supply Company has also disclosed that residents in the region should anticipate ‘forced’ load shedding in the upcoming days.

  • I do not know that why they all are not telling that there was an incident at Guddu which lead to power blackouts all over Pakistan.
    The main issue is lack of planning and other power generating units being switched off for which they take money from us in the bills in the name of capacity payments. Massive mismanagement and corruption. As soon as Guddu went offline, the whole of Pakistan is impacted.
    Where we have a capacity of more than 30000MW and consumption being only 14000~15000MW a 1700MW power plant going out should not have impacted this much. But in actual, its more than that, majority of power plants are shut down in winter and with Hydel also down in Dec/Jan, they do not have any spinning reserve. For the last 4 years every January there is an incident at Guddu which is basically due to a corrupt DMG officer being deputed at the highest level of a technical institute that Guddu makes sure that it goes down taking with it the whole of Pakistan.

    • Whole Pakistan is working with incompetent, Mismanagement, Kickback, Commission Mafia, Dishonest, Sluggish people

    • Until people of Pakistan do not take control of their governence and remove 75 year old elite capture the situation will not improve. It is time for REVOLUTION

    • That’s not the reason, i m no expert but let me give you and the people some idea.
      During nawaz’ tenure, they started projects all over north and center and not a single project was started in south, some KANUPS were started but not as equal as the other side.
      Now, north produces more and south produces less, they create a havoc like situation on the junction as the distribution lines are old.
      These were to be upgarded but came elections and nobody, PTI and nor PPP worked on it. (FYI, i am aPolitical btw).

  • Pure nonsense.

    Switch off the electricity of WAPDA House, the house of its chairman, Minister for Water and Power, Secretary of this Ministry and WAPDA’s affiliated offices throughout the country for 24 hours and see what happens. These people enjoy heated offices and houses free of cost and make the public a scapegoat in the process. Unless the people come out against this madness, nothing can happen.

  • نالائق حکومت کے نالائق تمام ادارے۔۔۔ حرام خوری اور فرعونیت کی انتہا ختم ہے ان پہ۔ غزہ کا حال اسرائیل نے کیا اور پاکستان کا یہ حال ان تمام منافق اداروں نے جیا۔ نہ حکمران مسلمان نہ قاضی مسلمان نہ سالار مسلمان نہ محافظ مسلمان۔۔۔ اللہ سے کس کی شکایت کریں چاروں طرف سے مار آستین پھیلے ہوئے ہیں

  • ضلع بنوں کے پی میں ہر دو گھنٹے بعد ایک گھنٹے کیلئے بجلی دی جاتی تھی اب اس ایک گھنٹے میں بھی صرف پانچ منٹ بجلی دی جاتی ہے۔ جبکہ بنوں میں ڈیم ہے اور بجلی پیدا کی جاتی ہے۔ ٹیکس عوام دیں اور چوبیس گھنٹے مفت بجلی کی سہولت ججوں، واپڈا اور دیگر اداروں کو ہے۔ اب عوام کو مجبور کیا جا رہا ہے کہ وہ سولر پلانٹ لگوائیں کیونکہ شریفوں نے سولر پلانٹس کا کاروبار شروع کیا ہوا ہے جو ان اداروں کو باقاعدہ حصہ دیتے ہیں۔ عوام کو اپنے حقوق نہیں معلوم نہ ہی یہ معلوم کہ حقوق کیسے حاصل کئے جاتے ہیں۔
