Private IPPs also owe significant amounts, with Liberty Power's dues at Rs16.397 billion, Kapco at Rs2.253 billion, Orient Power Rs1.441 billion, FKPCL Rs900 million, Sapphire Power Rs409 million, Saif Power Rs313 million, and Halmore Power and Davis Energen each owing Rs88 million. Government-owned plants such as QATPL, NPPMC (Balloki), and NPPMCL (HBS) collectively owe Rs3.779 billion. SNGPL said the situation stems from inadequate fund releases by the Central Power Purchasing Agency (CPPA-G) to the power sector, which in turn delays payments to the gas utility. The company has urged CPPA-G to expedite payments to Wapda, IPPs, and government plants so they can clear their liabilities, enabling SNGPL to meet its own payment obligations to gas suppliers.
