The mining volume of Thar II Coal Mine Project has reached 117 million tons by the end of last month, and production value has reached Rs 5.3 billion ” according to a report carried by Gwadar Pro on Monday.
In an interview, the spokesmen of That Project Song Jiayu and Feng Hongchao said, the annual coal output of Thar project is stable at 3.8 million tons which provides high-quality coal for pithead thermal power stations.
Song recalled, at the beginning of the construction of Thar project, Pakistan relied heavily on the import of crude oil, diesel oil and natural gas for energy supply, and the utilization of coal was limited.
It resulted in a serious imbalance of energy supply in Pakistan and restricted the development of the domestic economy. Therefore, the Pakistani government has attached great importance to Thar project, aiming at improving the utilization of coal and optimizing the energy structure.
