Department of Electrical Engineering, University of Engineering & Technology, Taxila 47050, Pakistan 2. Department of Electrical Engineering, GCT, Abbottabad, Pakistan [email protected] Abstract: Pakistan has abundant water resources. Hydro-potential resources can play effective role in contributing towards energy security as well as energy independence of Pakistan. This research paper delineates hydro potential in Pakistan. At present, Pakistan is facing severe short fall of electric energy. A brief history and the present situation of the hydro-electricity production, its consumption in the country and importance of utilization of water resources for the production of electric power have been discussed. Predictions to solve energy crises are made on the basis of empirical data and preliminary observations. The root causes of the shortfall in energy generation, an estimated forecast of demand and generation of electricity for the next twenty years has also been predicted. Energy projections have been discussed in detail. [T. MAhmoo, H. Khan, M.A. Choudhry. Pakistan’s Hydro Potential and Energy Crisis.

Introduction facing by the whole world now a day. At present, the Pakistan, at present facing serious short fall duration of forced load shedding in peak season is of electric energy and this has evolved as crises.

The reason is that no planning are the main causes of the above mentioned worthwhile steps have been initiated to install new circumstances. Main technical causes of the shortfall hydel capacity to meet the demand. As a result, the of energy in Pakistan are the followings; frequent power shutdowns; “load-shedding” is a Insufficient installed generation capacity, common phenomenon throughout the country.

The shortage of electricity is badly related problems are also playing key role in the affecting not only the industry but also the commerce present energy crisis. Some of these causes are: and daily life of the people. The investment of foreign Faulty management information system, investors in the industrial sector is also poor. Inaccurate forecast and failure of future Therefore, drastic steps are required in-order to planning, explore all available energy resources particularly, No expansion in the existing transmission / Hydro. To resolve the energy deficient, Government distribution networks and grid stations, of Pakistan (GoP) considering two options; 1.) to Unavailability of sufficient financial import electric energy from neighboring countries resources, and (Iran and Central Asian Republics) and, 2.) using indigenous sources, such as, Hydel, coal, waste, wind, Rapid and uncontrolled increase in the solar power, nuclear power, and biomass for population. production of energy [1]. Although, Pakistan poses In the June 2012, the country is facing about greater wind potential than India, yet India has 5000 MW power supply shortage - the most severe become the fourth largest installed capacity of wind energy crisis to ever hit in the country’s history [9]. power in the world [2-8]. Needless to say that if the The occurrence of prolonged and frequent power country desires to accelerate its economic growth and outages have negative impact on industry operation, need to improve the living standard of people, it has to the economy and the livelihood of common citizens, make serious efforts towards framing a coherent in general.

  • PAKISTAN WATER and POWER DEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY (April
    PAKISTAN WATER AND POWER DEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY (April 2011) April 2011 www.wapda.gov.pk PREFACE Energy and water are the prime movers of human life. Though deficient in oil and gas, Pakistan has abundant water and other energy sources like hydel power, coal, wind and solar power. The country situated between the Arabian Sea and the Himalayas, Hindukush and Karakoram Ranges has great political, economic and strategic importance. The total primary energy use in Pakistan amounted to 60 million tons of oil equivalent (mtoe) in 2006-07. The annual growth of primary energy supplies and their per capita availability during the last 10 years has increased by nearly 50%. The per capita availability now stands at 0.372 toe which is very low compared to 8 toe for USA for example. The World Bank estimates that worldwide electricity production in percentage for coal is 40, gas 19, nuclear 16, hydro 16 and oil 7. Pakistan meets its energy requirement around 41% by indigenous gas, 19% by oil, and 37% by hydro electricity. Coal and nuclear contribution to energy supply is limited to 0.16% and 2.84% respectively with a vast potential for growth. The Water and Power Development Authority (WAPDA) is vigorously carrying out feasibility studies and engineering designs for various hydropower projects with accumulative generation capacity of more than 25000 MW. Most of these studies are at an advance stage of completion. After the completion of these projects the installed capacity would rise to around 42000 MW by the end of the year 2020. Pakistan has been blessed with ample water resources but could store only 13% of the annual flow of its rivers.

  • Hydel Power Potential of Pakistan 15
    Foreword God has blessed Pakistan with a tremendous hydel potential of more than 40,000 MW. However, only 15% of the hydroelectric potential has been harnessed so far. The remaining untapped potential, if properly exploited, can effectively meet Pakistan’s ever-increasing demand for electricity in a cost-effective way. To exploit Pakistan’s hydel resource productively, huge investments are necessary, which our economy cannot afford except at the expense of social sector spending. Considering the limitations and financial constraints of the public sector, the Government of Pakistan announced its “Policy for Power Generation Projects 2002” package for attracting overseas investment, and to facilitate tapping the domestic capital market to raise local financing for power projects. The main characteristics of this package are internationally competitive terms, an attractive framework for domestic investors, simplification of procedures, and steps to create and encourage a domestic corporate debt securities market. In order to facilitate prospective investors, the Private Power & Infrastructure Board has prepared a report titled “Pakistan Hydel Power Potential”, which provides comprehensive information on hydel projects in Pakistan. The report covers projects merely identified, projects with feasibility studies completed or in progress, projects under implementation by the public sector or the private sector, and projects in operation. Today, Pakistan offers a secure, politically stable investment environment which is moving towards deregulation

  • Public Sector Development Programme 2021-22
    GOVERNMENT OF PAKISTAN PUBLIC SECTOR DEVELOPMENT PROGRAMME 2021-22 PLANNING COMMISSION MINISTRY OF PLANNING, DEVELOPMENT & SPECIAL INITIATIVES June, 2021 PREFACE Public Sector Development Programme (PSDP) is an important policy instrument aiming to achieve sustainable economic growth and socioeconomic objectives of the government. The outgoing fiscal year PSDP was made with a particular focus on strengthening the health sector and creating economic opportunities to combat widespread disruptions caused by COVID-19 pandemic. As a result of efficient and well-coordinated management of the pandemic, the economy showed signs of recovery and economic growth stood at 3.94% during FY 2020-21. In the upcoming year 2021-22, the priority of the Government is to further spur economic activities. Therefore, the PSDP in 2021-22 has been enhanced by 38% from Rs 650 billion in FY 2020-21 to Rs. 900 billion (including foreign aid of Rs 100 billion). The focus of PSDP 2021-22 is on improving transport and communication facilities with special emphasis on inter-provincial and regional connectivity, investment on building large dams and water conservation systems as per the National Water Policy, augmenting and strengthening health sector infrastructure and service delivery, improving access to higher education, social protection, increasing employment and livelihood opportunities, reducing regional disparities, mitigating effects of climate change, building knowledge economy, enhancing agricultural productivity & ensuring food security and supporting Public Private Partnership initiatives through providing Viability Gap funding. Special Development Packages have been initiated under the Regional Equalization Programme to ensure the development of the deprived areas to bring them at par with other developed regions of the country.
