Big news in Karachi! K-Electric, the main electricity company, just got a super-long 20-year license from NEPRA (National Electric Power Regulatory Authority). They asked for this special license to keep providing power to Karachi for the next 20 years. Before this, they had a 20-year license that ended in July 2023, but NEPRA gave them an extra six months to make sure the city keeps getting power.
