Chashma Nuclear Power Plant II trips again; loadshedding crisis exacerbated
Tuesday, July 24th, 2012 11:00:05 by Fayyaz YaseenMianwali: (Tuesday, July 24, 2012) Adding to the already exacerbated energy crisis in Pakistan, the Chashma Nuclear Power Plant (CNPP) has once again tripped today due to which power supply of 325 megawatts have suspended to the
national grid.
According to the Ministry of Water and Power, 325 megawatts of energy was reintroduced to the national grid after engineers worked out a technical error which struck the Chashma Nuclear Power Plant in Mianwali.
About two days ago, both the CNPP I and II had broken down, but they were repaired later on Monday.
With the CNPP II breaking down again, loadshedding is likely to increase in the country.
Lately, when contacted, the sources confirmed that the repair work was underway.
