this is all about energy sector of pakistan percentage generated of electricity in pakistan throughout country

2. • Pakistan, a 61 year old independent state still not
able to meet its demand of power generation
• Pakistan is not self –sufficient in energy production
• Country faces huge electric power crises today

3. Electricity in Pakistan
Electricity in Pakistan is generated, transmitted, distributed,
and retail supplied by two vertically integrated public sector
utilities: Water and Power Development Authority (WAPDA) for
all of Pakistan (except Karachi), and the Karachi Electric (K-
Electric) for the city of Karachi and its surrounding areas.
There are around 42 independent power producers (IPPs) that
contribute significantly in electricity generation in Pakistan.

4. Electricity – Sources (2016)
fossil fuel – 14,635 MW – 64.2% of total(oil-35.2% + gas-29%)
hydro – 6,611 MW – 29% of total
nuclear – 1,322 MW – 5.8% of total
There are Three major power producers in country:
WAPDA
K-Electric
IPPs (Independent Power Producers)

7. Supply and demand
• The total power production capacity in the country is about 19,500
Mw.
• Curent demand is nearly 24,000 Mw
• The country is falling short of 4500 Mw
• As a result, 10-12 hours of load-shedding per day across the
country.
• The demand for the supply of electricity is growing at an annual
rate of almost 9% whereas the supply of electricity is increasing at
a coparatively slower rate of around 7%.

8. According to a survey:
Electricity consumed by-
Households sector 44.2%
Industrial sector 31.1%
Agriculture 14.3%
Government sector 7.4%
Commercial 5.5%
Street lights 0.7%

10. CPEC and it’s Impact on Power Sector
Electricity generation has increased by 3.18% in 2015 as a result of
Government of Pakistan (GoP) efforts and China–Pakistan Economic
Corridor (CPEC). The country has begun diversifying its energy
producing capacity by investing in coal, nuclear energy, solar energy
and wind energy to help offset the energy shortage while larger
projects greater than 1000 MW such as the Diamer-Bhasha Dam,
Kohala Hydropower Project, Pakistan Port Qasim Power Project,
Sahiwal Coal Power Project, Thar Engro Coal Power Project, Hub
Coal Power Project and new nuclear plants are now under
construction or planned.

11. CPEC Projects – Due 2020
Power Stations Capacity
Pakistan Port Qasim Power Project. 1320 (2x660MW)
Sahiwal Coal Power Project 1320 (2x660MW)
Rahimyar Khan coal power project 1320 (2x660MW)
Thar SSRL coal power project and mine 1320 (2x660MW)
Quaid-e-Azam Solar Park 1000MW
Suki Kinari Hydropower Project 870MW
Karot Hydropower Project 720MW
HUBCO coal power project 660MW
Thar Engro Coal Power Project 660 (2x330MW)
Gwadar coal power project 300MW
UEP Windfarm 100MW
Others* 50x3MW

12. Classification Of Power Plants

13. Hydel Power Plants
It is said that Pakistan could produce upto
40,000MW through Hydel Energy yet it
consumes less than 20% of its resource. The
Hydel Contribution to power sector is only
7,116MW.

14. Nuclear Power Stations
As of 2017 the net addition to grid through Nuclear Power
Station is 1,467MW. With Chasnupp and Kanupp extension
underway and due till 2020. Net +4200MW addition to the
grid is expected by 2020.

15. Thermal Power Stations
They are further classified as
• Oil Fired – 35.2%
• Gas Fired – 29%
• Coal Fired – 1.2%
Oil Fired
The major share of Oil fired plants raise a
startling concern as it contributes to loss of
foreign exchange and with hiking oil prices per
unit cost Rs./KWh has also increased. Oil Fired
Plants add +8000MW to the grid as of 2013
survey.
Gas Fired
Having world’s largest gas reserves quickly deplating.
Gas Fired Plants add +6900MW to the grid. Being
cheaper compared to HSD and HFO, it’s the best
alternative to produce cheaper electricity.
Coal Fired
Pakistan have large coal reserves. Its estimated that 40000MW could be
recovered for next 100 years. Yet due to environmental policies and
coal quality the projects are limited. +300MW has been added to grid
as of 2013

16. Dawn News Report:
The coal power plant will have two units each
with a combined capacity of 1320MW. One unit
(holding 660MW capacity) is expected to be
completed by the end of 2017 and the other by
March 2018.
The project adopts the world’s leading super-
critical thermal technology and will also follow
environment-friendly operations, including
seawater desalination and flue gas de-
sulfurization.

17. Conclusion
Pakistan’s Power Sector is fast evolving. The production has gone
2.5x in last 10 year plan. Through China Pakistan Economic
Corridor – CPEC upto 10,000MW would be added to the Grid by
2020. Suppressing the Shortfall and featuring job opportunities.
Furthermore more efficient Super Critical Plants are being
established with 42% Net Efficiency and other Combined Cycle
Power Stations are part of the “Early Harvest – Energy Project”.
