Distribution companies (DISCOs) are companies operating under the Pakistan Electric Power Company (PEPCO). They are responsible for supplying electricity to the consumers living in their assigned areas. These companies help manage electricity supply, reduce line losses, and handle customer connections in their areas. They buy electricity from producers such as Water and Power Development Authority (WAPDA), GENCOs, PAEC, and other private Independent Power Producers (IPPs) and sell it to their respective area customers. All companies are owned by the Government of Pakistan except K-Electric, which was privatized in 2005.
