Mansehra: The government has decided to establish the Hazara Electricity Supply Company (HESCO) in a bid to provide better services to the domestic and commercial consumers located within the division, a news source reported.
MNA Salah Mohammad Khan made this announcement during a press briefing, and revealed that the government had recently finalised a strategy to establish additional electric supply companies across the country.
He quoted Federal Minister for Water and Power Omar Ayub as saying that HESCO would be set up on a priority basis to address the concern of prolonged power outages in Hazara.
At present, the authorities concerned are working to install pylons and electric transformers in remote parts of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) to resolve the issue of low voltages.
Moreover, existing feeders are being bifurcated for better and uninterrupted electricity supply in Hazara and its suburbs–in order to curb the province’s energy crisis.
