1.1 Introduction to Organization:

                        Peshawar Electric Supply Company Limited (PESCO) is one of the nine electricity distribution companies (DISCOs) established as a result of the unbundling of the vertically integrated power wing of Pakistan Water and Power Development Authority (WAPDA). The company was established and incorporated in April 1998 as a public limited company under Pakistan Companies Ordinance 1984. It was originally organized to take over the properties, assets, obligations and liabilities of former Peshawar Area Electricity Board (AEB) of WAPDA serving North West Frontier Province (NWFP) of Pakistan including the tribal areas. Subsequently, a new company Tribal Electric Supply Company Limited (TESCO) was spun out of PESCO in June 2002 for supply to tribal areas of PESCO. Presently service area of PESCO includes NWFP excluding tribal areas.

PESCO distributes and supplies electricity to about 1.5 million customers of various categories within its service area. National Electric Power Regulatory Authority (NEPRA) has granted Distribution License to PESCO for distribution and supply of electricity pursuant to the Regulation of Generation, Transmission and Distribution of Electric Power Act, 1997 (NEPRA Act). The various categories of PESCO include domestic, commercial, industrial and agricultural served by an extensive distribution system network of 132 kv, 66 kv, 33 kv, 11 kv, 11 kv and low voltage.
