What happened?
Wafi Energy Pakistan Limited announced that its profit after tax for the first half of 2026 reached PKR 1.523 billion, up from PKR 1.260 billion in the same period a year earlier.

The rise in earnings signals that the company’s recent spending on supply‑line upgrades and projects aimed at bolstering national energy security is beginning to pay off, a development that could help ease chronic power shortages faced by households and industry across the country.
What’s next for the firm?
Wafi Energy’s board reaffirmed its plan to broaden generation and distribution capacity, targeting further infrastructure investments to keep pace with growing electricity demand and to support the government’s goal of achieving a more reliable power grid.
