Pakistan has high wind potential
Tahir Bashir Cheema pointed to coastal areas, like Balochistan, Sindh and the Pothohar region, as the most viable places to build wind turbines, Asia Pulse Data Source reports.

The government funding can also be used to finance approved renewable projects that will add more capacity to the renewable grid.
