Experience That Supports the Future
NationalGrid traces its origin back to 1998, following the unbundling of the Water and Power Development Authority (WAPDA) into separate generation companies, distribution companies, and a transmission company, the National Transmission and Despatch Company Limited (NTDC).
Transmission Licence No. TL/01/2002 was granted to NTDC by NEPRA on 31st December 2002, authorising it to perform multiple sector functions including power system planning, system operation, transmission network operation, metering, power purchase on behalf of Distribution Companies (DISCOs), billing, settlement and market operations.
Transfer of power purchase, billing, settlement and market operation functions to Central Power Purchasing Agency (CPPA-G).
NTDC was restructured as National Grid Company of Pakistan Limited (NGC), reflecting its focused role as a Transmission Service Provider (TSP) and Metering Service Provider (MSP) within a competitive electricity market. Establishment of the Independent System and Market Operator (ISMO) and transfer of system operations, generation planning and forecasting functions.
Following the restructuring, the Board approved the company’s transformation to NationalGrid – a modern, efficient, future-ready and high-performing transmission utility.
