Pakistan on Monday said that a consortium led by a Chinese company has won the bid for a Rs.82 billion power project in Punjab province.
To be set up near Lahore, the 1,000-1,200 MW combined cycle power project was offered for international bidding by the National Power Parks Management Company Ltd., a subsidiary of the ministry of water and power.
