lesser construction periods etc, PPIB has also started processing small hydropower projects having
generation capacity of below 50 MW under the Tri-partite Letter of Support (LOS) regime of Power
Generation Policy 2015. Through this arrangement, a Tripartite LOS will be issued to the projects
sponsors/companies and PPIB will facilitate them in establishing private power projects and related
infrastructure through signing Implementation Agreement and issuing GoP Guarantee under the
provisions of Power Generation Policy 2015. This initiative will attract and encourage potential investors
in developing small to medium size hydropower power projects in the country.
The current portfolio of hydropower projects being processed by PPIB includes projects ranging from
7 MW to 1,124 MW of generation capacity which are located in Khyber Pakhtunkha, AJ&K and Punjab.
