World Bank set to back Pakistan energy projects with new loan

Pakistan is likely to secure a new World Bank loan worth about Rs10.7 billion to support reforms and upgrades in the energy sector.

According to Samaa TV, the funding is expected to help improve the power system, including transmission infrastructure and related energy projects. The report drew strong interest because it touches on one of Pakistan's most persistent economic challenges: energy reliability and efficiency.

The development became a trending economic story as audiences focused on how international financing could shape future electricity reforms and reduce long-term system losses.
