Power Crisis,Tourism

Load shedding is typical across much of fuel-short Pakistan, but few areas suffer prolonged outages

SKARDU – In the mountainous valleys of Pakistan , 18-hour daily power cuts have meant local teacher Aniqa Bano uses her fridge as a cupboard for storing books and kitchen utensils.

While higher-end hotels can supplement their supply with solar panels or fuel generators, many locals cannot afford such luxuries.Skardu is the largest city in the region of Gilgit-Baltistan, where almost impossibly high peaks tower over the Old Silk Road, still visible from a highway transporting tourists between cherry orchards, glaciers and ice-blue lakes.

There are up to 22 hours of load shedding in winter and between 18 and 20 hours in summer – an increase of around 10 percent each year for the past six years, according to the department. "In the presence of light, we could prepare 10 to 12 suits every three days. Now, to prepare a single suit, it can take 10 to 15 days."
