What drives Power Generation & Distribution on the PSX
Independent power producers typically earn under long-term contracts that pay a capacity payment regardless of how much electricity is dispatched. That makes revenue unusually predictable on paper. The recurring problem is cash: Pakistan's circular debt means invoices are frequently not paid on time, so a profitable-looking power company may be short of cash.
What to watch
- Circular debt and the timing of government payments — the defining issue of the sector.
- Contract terms, tariff structure and any renegotiation of legacy agreements.
- Plant availability, since capacity payments depend on being ready to run.
- Dollar-indexed returns in some agreements, creating currency sensitivity.
