The company was incorporated on 23 April 1998 and certificate for commencement of business was obtained on 1 July 1998 from NEPRA under section 146(2) of Companies Ordinance 1984.As a result of revamping, 12 corporate entities, 8 distribution companies (DISCOs), 3 generation companies (GENSCOs) and 1 National Transmission and Dispatch Company  (NTDC) company were formed.
