    Cointelegraph.com - 06:07 Aug 17, 2025

At the time of publication, Bitcoin (BTC) is trading at $117,867, meaning a move into that range would represent gains of 19% to 27%, according to CoinMarketCap.

  • Sindh earmarks land for first B2B green power project
    Dawn - 05:49 Aug 17, 2025
    KARACHI: The Sindh government has allotted 300 acres of land in Jhimpir to Moro Power Company (MPC) for establishing a 100-megawatt hybrid wind and solar project, the first business-to-business (B2B) electricity venture under the province’s own regulator. Officials said the project, to be executed under the Sindh Electric Power Regulatory Authority (SEPRA), will enable MPC to supply power directly to industries in Nooriabad through the Sindh Trans­mission and Despatch Company (STDC).

The Jhimpir project is therefore viewed as a pioneering step towards decentralised power generation in the country. Moro Power to set up 100MW wind-solar hybrid project in Jhimpir ...
