[edit] Responsibilities
The Private Power and Infrastructure Board (PPIB) was created in 1994 to facilitate private sector in the participation of power generation in Pakistan. PPIB provides a “One-Window” facility to private sector investors in matters concerning establishing power projects and related infrastructure. These matters include negotiation of the Implementation Agreement (IA).
PPIB also provides support to the power purchaser and fuel supplier while negotiating the Power Purchase Agreement (PPA), Fuel Supply Agreement (FSA)/Gas Supply Agreement (GSA), other related agreements, and liaison with the concerned local and international agencies for facilitating and expediting progress of private sector power projects.
PPIB is working to attract and facilitate FDI in Pakistan’s power sector. A number of foreign investors have expressed interest in setting up power generation projects that would exploit our indigenous resources including hydel, wind, natural gas, and coal. Their proposals have been evaluated and the prospective investors facilitated and encouraged to come up with power projects focusing on maximum utilization of available local resources.
