Allai Khwar Hydropower Plant

The Allai Khwar Hydropower Plant is a run-of-the-river, high head project of 687 metres, located in the Battagram District on the Allai Khwar River, a left bank tributary of the Indus River in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province, Pakistan.

The transmission line was laid by the North East China Electric Power Corporation with the assistance of a local firm, Imperial Construction Company (ICC) from Lahore.

The Islamic Development Bank (IDB) provided a loan of US$38.435 million from July 2009 onwards to complete the remaining works on the project.
