Hub Power Plant

Hub Plant, situated strategically at the Hub River estuary, Baluchistan is one of the most efficient RFO fired thermal power plant in Pakistan, which supplies reliable and uninterrupted electricity to the national grid. It is one of the largest private power projects and the first and largest Independent Power Producer (IPP) in Pakistan to be financed by the private sector in Southern Asia.

The power plant consists of four generating units each rated at 323 MW gross output, with a residual oil-fired single re-heat boiler and tandem compound, two-cylinder condensing steam turbine directly coupled to a hydrogen cooled generator. The net available output of 1200MW is exported to WAPDA’s national grid via the power station’s 500kv switch yard.
