There has hardly been any industrialization during the past nine years. And where there has been, there has also been self-generation provision. For instance, ALL sugar mills produce their own electricity, and so do the cement plants. In fact, all CPI's produce their own power, it is a by product of their operation. Batch processing industries, for instance textile mills, require utility power. On the other hand there has been MASSIVE increase in the power consumption of the urban households. Figure should be available with PEPCO, WAPDA, KESC etc., but they are tight lipped about them, mainly due to two factors. Line losses, which are very high, and power theft, which is astronomical. Power theft began in Karachi, and spread throughout the country very soon. The media, especially the print media played a key role role in its spread, printing pictures and describing in graphic detail how it is done. In Karachi, even billion rupee industries have been known to steal power on a continuous basis.
