Pakistan has the potential of producing approximately 150,000MW power from wind energy sources and wind projects can fetch investment of around two billion dollars.
Pakistan-China Joint Chamber of Commerce and Indutry (PCJCCI) President S.M Naveed expressed these views during a think-tank session here at PCJCCI office on Wednesday.
