The World Bank has approved a $723 million financial package for Pakistan to help the country improve its power sector and make it more efficient.
The package includes a $500 million loan and a $223 million grant from the International Development Association (IDA), the World Bank’s concessional lending arm.
The loan will have a 4-year grace period and an interest rate of 1.25 percent.
The grant will be used to support the implementation of the Pakistan Power Sector Reform Program.
The program includes measures to improve the financial and operational performance of Pakistan’s power sector, as well as to reduce the sector’s reliance on subsidies.
The program will also help Pakistan to develop a more sustainable energy mix, including through the use of renewable energy.

As a result, Pakistan has been facing power shortages of around 4,000 MW, which have led to widespread blackouts.
The energy crisis has also had a negative impact on Pakistan’s economy, with GDP growth projected to slow to 3.3 percent in the fiscal year 2013/14 from a previous 4 percent.
