K-Electric’s flagship 560 MW, Bin Qasim Power Station-II (BQPS-II) is recognised as one of the industry leaders in energy management best practices and holds the unique distinction of being Pakistan’s first and only ISO 50001 certified power plant for its Energy Management System which improves energy productivity and cuts CO2 emissions. It is also the first-ever Pakistani power plant to be declared a WWF-Green Office for its Environmental Management System which prioritises energy efficiency, focuses on waste reduction across the entire value chain and ensures an environmentally-friendly workplace.
BQPS-II had been also been declared as the “most reliable GE Gas Turbine Power Plant with Frame 9E technology in the Middle East and Africa (MEA) region” for the year 2016, 2017, 2019, and 2022. The power is transferred via two overhead 220KV Transmission lines to KCR grid and to PIPRI and ICI grids using two 220kV short lines interconnections with BQPS-I’s & BQPS-III’s GIS (Gas Insulated Switchgear).
