A PAKISTAN GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT COMPREHENSIVE ENERGY PLAN by A GENIUS SCHOL...Malik Tariq Sarwar Awan
GROWTH AND DEVELOPEMNT EFFORTS FOR PAKISTAN TO BECOME A DEVELOPED COUNTRY by Tariq Sarwar Awan A Genius Research Analyst, Scholar and Public Representative Tariq Sarwar Awan in his Public Awareness program. I am working on all the core issues to give their SOLUTIONS for rapid growth of my Nation, Great Pakistan Pakistan Nuclear
Pakistan has a small but growing nuclear power program focused on increasing capacity from the current 725 MWe. Its program includes operating pressurized heavy water and pressurized water reactors built with Chinese assistance. Pakistan is constructing additional Chinese-designed reactors at Chashma and plans to build two large reactors near Karachi to further increase capacity while reducing reliance on oil and gas. However, its nuclear activities are hindered by its weapons program and exclusion from international nuclear trade due to not being party to the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty.
Power plants in pakistan
The document discusses different types of power plants in Pakistan. It describes five main types: thermal power plants, hydropower plants, wind power plants, solar power plants, and nuclear power plants. Thermal power plants generate electricity by heating water into steam to spin turbines connected to generators. Hydropower plants use the gravitational force of falling or flowing water through dams to generate electricity. Wind power plants convert kinetic energy from wind into electrical energy using wind turbines. Solar power plants transform solar energy into electricity using solar cells or by focusing light to power engines. Nuclear power plants derive power from controlled nuclear fission to heat water and spin turbines.
Energy sector in pakistan
The document discusses Pakistan's energy sector and energy crisis. It notes that electricity in Pakistan is generated mainly through thermal, hydel, and nuclear sources. Approximately 55% of the population has access to electricity. It is experiencing a severe energy crisis with shortages of 4,000-9,000 MW per day, costing the economy billions. To resolve this, it suggests increasing investment in renewable sources like wind, where Pakistan has significant potential to develop wind farms and power coastal areas.
Power resources in pakistan
Pakistan relies on both non-renewable and renewable resources for power generation. Non-renewable resources include coal, natural gas, crude oil, and liquefied petroleum gas. Coal is extracted through both surface mining and underground mining, and is used primarily for power generation as well as industries like cement, brick kilns and steel production. Natural gas and crude oil are extracted through drilling and are used for power generation, transportation fuel, and industrial processes. Electricity in Pakistan is generated by public sector utilities like WAPDA and K-Electric, as well as independent power producers. However, generation still falls short of demand, resulting in regular load shedding across the country.
Renewable energy crises in pakistan
Pakistan has significant potential for renewable energy generation, including:
- 340,000 MW from wind energy; 2.9 million MW from solar; 50,000 MW from large hydro; and smaller amounts from other renewables. However, currently renewable energy accounts for only a small portion of Pakistan's energy mix.
The document proposes that Pakistan should focus particularly on developing its solar, biogas, and wind energy potentials. It suggests specific future projects like installing solar panels in remote villages not connected to the national grid, and setting up biogas plants in villages that produce a lot of animal manure. Developing renewable sources could help address Pakistan's energy needs and create new jobs.
Thermal and nuclear power
Pakistan has a total power generation capacity of around 17,457 MW. Hydropower accounts for 5,013 MW or 29% of capacity, while thermal power such as from furnace oil, coal and gas accounts for 12,169 MW or 71%. Nuclear capacity is 462 MW from the Karachi and Chashma plants. However, nuclear development has been limited due to international pressures and high costs compared to hydroelectric power.

Hydro Power In Pakistan
1) Hydroelectric power has significant untapped potential in Pakistan to help address the country's energy needs.
2) Pakistan currently generates around 35% of its energy from hydropower but has an estimated potential of over 41,000MW, most of which remains unutilized.
3) Harnessing more of Pakistan's hydro potential through projects like Diamer-Bhasha Dam could help reduce the country's reliance on expensive and imported fossil fuels for energy generation.
Pakistan electricity scenario
This document provides an overview of Pakistan's current electricity demand and supply scenario. It discusses that Pakistan is facing a 6000 MW deficit in peak summer months, with demand growing at 6-7% annually. It attributes the crisis to bad governance, financial issues, and theft. Plans are outlined to enhance generation capacity through coal, hydel, and renewable projects to bridge the gap and attract private investment. Charts show current installed capacity by source, consumption by sector, and Pakistan's energy mix compared to global averages. Upcoming private projects through 2025 are projected to add over 15,000 MW of capacity.
Coal fired power plants by Waqas Ali Tunio (07ME34)
Coal-fired power plants produce electricity by burning coal to heat water and create steam, which spins turbines that generate electricity. Conventional coal plants are large scale operations that run continuously. Modern plants have increased efficiency and output, with some generating over 1000 MW of power. A typical 500 MW coal plant burns 1.4 million tons of coal annually. However, coal use causes air and water pollution and environmental damage from mining to disposal of wastes. Pakistan has large coal reserves, especially lignite in Thar, but development has been limited due to environmental and economic challenges from coal power.
Power generation
This document provides information about various topics related to power generation including different types of power plants (hydro, nuclear, gas, diesel, thermal), sources of energy (renewable like wind, hydro, solar, biomass vs. non-renewable like coal, LPG, natural gas, nuclear, fuel cell), energy consumption per capita in different countries, the share of different energy sources in power generation, installed power generation capacity in India by source, and some key parts and issues involved in thermal power plants. It also discusses electrical safety, power distribution, transmission losses, and common problems and solutions in electrical power systems.
Nuclear power in pakistan
Pakistan currently operates two nuclear power reactors generating 2.4% of the country's electricity. The Pakistan Atomic Energy Commission is responsible for all nuclear energy programs. The KANUPP reactor near Karachi began operating in 1971 and the Chashma-1 reactor began operating in 2000 with assistance from China. A third nuclear reactor is planned to begin operating in 2010 to further increase nuclear power generation in Pakistan.
Power Generation In Pakistan
Pakistan faces a major electricity crisis as demand is growing at 9% annually while supply is only increasing at 7%. Thermal power generates 65% of electricity, hydel 33%, and nuclear 2%. Reasons for the crisis include liquidity issues at WAPDA, decreased generation at KESC, opposition to the Kalabagh Dam project, and theft of electricity. The government is pursuing alternatives like solar, wind, and biomass to boost renewable energy and address the crisis. The Alternative Energy Development Board is working on various pilot renewable projects across Pakistan to develop these resources and improve the energy situation.
Arc reactor
The document discusses different power generation technologies, including conventional nuclear fission which produces high power in megawatts but requires large steam turbines, and betavoltaic batteries which produce power in nano-milliwatts but are small and conventional. It then proposes combining fission and betavoltaics by using a graphite moderating material with uranium-235 to generate power from fission, and nickel-63 to generate power from beta radiation through a semiconductor design, allowing for high power output in a small form factor.
Nuclear Power Plant
The presentation provides us the basic information of the Nuclear Power Plant situated at Rawatbhata, Rajasthan Site. It helps us to know about total number of Nuclear Power Plants situated all over India, its basic functioning and all about its parts.
Power potential in Pakistan
The document discusses Pakistan's power generation sources and electricity crisis. It outlines that Pakistan faces a significant shortage between electricity supply and demand of 6,000-8,000 megawatts. This results in daily power outages of 20-22 hours in cities and rural areas respectively. The gap is caused by low productivity, transmission line losses, and increasing demand. Sustainable energy use and careful planning are needed to balance energy needs with community needs.
The Energy Crisis | Biocity Studio
Sydney’s energy usage is 15% per capita higher than other developed cities in the world. The government is introducing a Carbon Trading Scheme as a proactive response to Greenhouse Gas Emissions. This presentation discusses the outcomes and benefits of the decentralised trigeneration, New York Cities renovation of existing power plants and solar /wind power.
Wind energy
This document discusses wind and solar energy. It explains that wind energy is produced through wind turbines that convert the kinetic energy of wind into electrical energy. Solar energy is produced through solar panels that convert sunlight into electrical energy. Scotland is well suited for wind energy production due to its windy conditions. While renewable sources are cleaner than coal and nuclear, wind turbines have disadvantages such as high setup costs and effects on landscapes. The document considers pros and cons of different renewable energy sources.

This document discusses how revolutionary low energy nuclear reaction (LENR) technology could transform the oil and gas industry. It claims that LENR could increase the economic value of fossil fuel reserves like oil and coal by 500 times by enabling their conversion into highly energy-dense, carbon dioxide-free LENR fuels. This would dramatically expand financing opportunities for oil and gas companies through mechanisms like asset-based lending. The document also outlines several potential applications of LENR technology in oil and gas production processes that could significantly reduce costs.
Nuclear Power Plant in Bangladesh : Environmental Issues and their Solutions
For better view : https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1NWlCP_WaaGw55eOJ-Ac9csE4TzdACMmowr9Oyc8b1QE/edit?usp=sharing
Fission-based electric power stations are responsible for the emission of negligible amount of Carbon Di-oxide and thus many countries are considering the possibility of building Nuclear Power Plants in order to get clean energy at a reasonable cost. Bangladesh is not different either. Though Bangladesh might not have a strong financial support, but they are going to enter the Elite Club of "Nuclear Power Producing Countries" in 2023. Thanks to Rosatom and thanks to Russia for their outstanding support.
Lattice Energy LLC - Compelling Economics of Transmutation vs Combustion of C...
Revolutionary LENR technology can potentially transform oil and coal into ‘green’ CO2-free LENR fuels that possess >5,000x the energy density (Watt*hours/kg) of unleaded gasoline.
In LENR fuels derived from extraction and processing of aromatic fractions found in oil and coal, generation of thermal heat energy occurs via clean radiation-free, neutron-catalyzed transmutation of Carbon into Nitrogen and Oxygen rather than chemical combustion with O2.
Herein we show how applied LENR technology can potentially increase the economic value of natural fossil Carbonaceous energy sources by at least 500x; much of this increase in energetic economic value comes from enormous energy densities and BTUs produced by nuclear processes as compared to purely chemical energy processes such as combustion.
In British Petroleum's 63rd annual Statistical Review of World Energy (2014) they estimated that oil will run-out in ~53 years and coal in ~113 years. Given at least 500x increase in the energetic economic value of LENR fuel, commercialization of LENRs on aromatic molecules would extend useful economic lifetime of fossil Carbon sources out to at least 25,000 years.
Commercialization of LENRs occurring on aromatic rings would eliminate the so-called “Carbon Bubble” and fossil fuel “stranded asset” problems that during the past few years have begun to concern certain financial players that even include the Bank of England.
Renewable energy resources in Pakistan
Pakistan has significant potential for renewable energy from solar, wind, hydro, and biomass sources. However, it currently utilizes very little renewable energy. The government has created an Alternative Energy Development Board to promote renewable energy with a target of 5% generation by 2030. Pakistan is well suited for solar power due to long sunshine hours and receives significant solar radiation. The coastal areas have strong winds suitable for wind power. Biomass potential includes bagasse from sugarcane and biogas from animal waste. Remote villages could benefit from decentralized renewable energy projects like solar and biogas that do not require connections to the national grid.

Wind power in pakistan by tahir
Wind power has potential in Pakistan but faces challenges. It could help address Pakistan's electricity shortage by providing power to remote areas not connected to the national grid. However, wind is intermittent and large-scale wind farms are needed to meet major power demands. While wind is free and produces no emissions once turbines are built, some view turbines as eyesores that damage landscapes. Pakistan is exploring a project with China to build small wind plants and aims to obtain 5% of its energy from renewables by 2030, but financial and political issues may limit wind power's growth.

It outlines Statkraft's growing capabilities and ambitions in developing larger offshore wind projects, using new foundation technologies like suction buckets inspired by oil and gas. The document promotes Statkraft's role in providing system operation and balancing services for renewable energy producers.
R&D for coal power in a carbon-constrained world
I gave this short presentation on March 5, 2014 on Capitol Hill in Washington, DC at the request of four US Senators who wanted to highlight the research that is needed to maintain coal as a competitive option for power generation while reducing its CO2 emissions.
Environmental Effects of Rampal Power Plant.
The document summarizes the environmental effects of the proposed Rampal Coal Power Plant in Bangladesh. It notes that the plant would be located near the Sundarbans mangrove forest, displacing wildlife including the endangered Royal Bengal Tiger. Smoke and pollution from the plant could harm the local ecosystem and people. Burning the large amount of coal required would produce millions of tons of carbon dioxide and other emissions annually. Shipping activities to supply the plant could also damage the mangroves through noise, oil spills, coal dropping, and waste discharges into rivers. The construction and operations would likely lower the water table and destroy the ecosystem of the Posur River. Many vulnerable species that inhabit the area could die off or leave if the power

This document discusses technologies for achieving perpetual mobility and sustainment on water using solar and wind power. It summarizes recent developments in solar photovoltaic and concentrated photovoltaic technologies that have increased efficiency. Concentrated photovoltaics in particular allow for a reduction in the size of solar panels needed while maintaining or increasing power output. The document also proposes using these solar technologies together with battery storage, hydrogen fuel cells, and small wind turbines to create systems capable of powering vessels indefinitely without fossil fuels.
13 hja 01 motive power mst
This document discusses technologies for powering vessels using renewable energy sources like solar and wind. It summarizes recent solar-powered circumnavigations and the advantages of concentrated photovoltaics (CPV) for generating electricity from solar power. CPV could allow for a 70% reduction in the size of solar panels needed. The document also discusses using solar power to produce hydrogen fuel for fuel cells, vertical axis wind turbines, towing kites to reduce fuel usage, and new DC electric motor and micro-grid technologies. It proposes a prototype hybrid solar/wind power system for a 80' x 20' vessel to demonstrate these technologies.
B.Sc. Thesis_Design of a Energy Generating Systems Using Speed Breaker
This document proposes a new technique to generate renewable energy by capturing the wasted kinetic energy from vehicles passing over speed bumps. A prototype system was designed using a rack and pinion mechanism connected to an electric generator. Experimental data showed that a single vehicle passing over the speed bump could generate 19.62 watts of power. Scaling this up, it is estimated that the system could generate 28.25 kilowatts of power per hour from traffic over a 24 hour period. While this offers potential benefits like being low cost and reducing pollution, challenges include the pulsating DC output, corrosion risks, and low efficiency. Further work is needed to design generators and springs for larger scale implementation and integration with the electric grid.

The document discusses Ballard Fuel Cells and its role in providing clean energy solutions using renewable resources like hydrogen fuel cells. It summarizes Ballard's products in areas like backup power, material handling, bus transportation and distributed generation. Ballard aims to leverage its expertise in proton exchange membrane (PEM) fuel cells to address various clean energy markets worth billions of dollars through established and growing applications.
Energy, power and climate change
The document discusses various sources of energy and methods of power generation. It covers both renewable and non-renewable energy sources, including fossil fuels, nuclear power, solar power, hydroelectric power, wind power, and wave power. For each method, it outlines the basic principles and transformations of energy, as well as the relative advantages and disadvantages.
Don Talend Turbine Efficiency Article
The document discusses how the Braintree Electric Light Department (BELD) installed two Rolls Royce gas turbines as part of a $110 million power plant repowering project to meet growing energy demands in the region. The turbines provide 116 MW of power during peak demand periods and offer more flexibility than traditional combined cycle plants. They can go from cold start to full power in under 10 minutes, allowing them to rapidly respond to fluctuations in power supply and demand. Having operated for a few years, BELD has found the new turbines to be more cost-effective than the previous plant, lowering electricity rates and saving significant costs during peak demand periods.
Renewable energy
Fuel Cells are becoming the preferred alternate energy but unless the constraints are understood and dealt with it will not be adopted at the rate it should
Energy, power and climate change1
The document discusses energy sources and climate change. It begins by explaining energy transformations in heat engines and power generation from fossil fuels. It then covers various energy sources like nuclear power, solar, hydroelectric, wind, and wave power. Greenhouse gases are discussed along with the greenhouse effect and evidence of human-caused climate change from increased CO2 levels. Predictions of global warming effects are also mentioned.
Lightbridge (NASDAQ:LTBR) Investor Presentation
Lightbridge Corporation is developing advanced nuclear fuel designs to improve reactor safety and economics. Their metallic fuel designs can be used in existing reactors to enable power uprates of 10% or higher without requiring changes to the reactors or refueling schedules. This increases reactor output while enhancing safety features such as lower operating temperatures and faster cooldown in accident scenarios. Lightbridge fuel is targeting initial commercialization in large US reactors starting in the early 2020s. It has the potential to generate hundreds of millions of dollars per year in royalty fees for Lightbridge if it captures a significant portion of the global reactor market.

This document compares the efficiency of subcritical and supercritical pressure in thermal power generation. Supercritical pressure refers to pressure above the critical point of water at 374°C and 22.1 MPa, allowing steam to reach higher temperatures without changing phase. The document finds that supercritical units have higher efficiency (52-59%) than subcritical units (36-37%) due to higher steam parameters, reducing fuel consumption and emissions. Major power companies worldwide have adopted supercritical technology, and India is planning supercritical projects to improve efficiency and meet increasing energy demand.
Building Integrated Renewables Public
The document discusses various renewable energy sources including solar, wind, biomass, and biofuels. It provides information on technologies such as solar photovoltaics and solar thermal, types of wind turbines, biomass heating systems, and combined heat and power systems. Case studies are presented on installations of solar PV, biomass CHP, and small residential wind turbines.
