NGC Sets July 1, 2026 Launch for Overhauled National Grid Operating Model

Overview

• NGC told Power Minister Sardar Awais Leghari that its company‑wide reform is on schedule, and he reaffirmed full government support.
• The redesign centers on unified operations leadership, stronger financial controls, dedicated regulator and stakeholder teams, independent safety oversight, streamlined processes, and modern digital monitoring.
• Since January, NGC has filled key leadership posts, introduced performance metrics, advanced new technology systems, and held a company town hall to prepare staff for the shift.
• The company plans to switch to the new operating model on July 1, 2026, with full operational and digital maturity targeted for December 31, 2026.
• NGC says the plan addresses long‑standing gaps left by the old NTDC structure from 1998, a change that could cut delays and reduce outages for homes and businesses across Pakistan.
