Electricity is one of the most important drivers of socio-economic development, yet up to 250 million Indians are not connected to the national grid, and the majority of rural consumers have grossly unreliable power supply. More than solar lanterns and home systems that power a few lights and fans, among the most efficient ways to provide reliable electricity in remote areas is through local mini-grids. India has several run by energy service companies and usually funded by philanthropic capital.
Most of these enterprises have not been able to scale-up their impact meaningfully because the risk of the national grid entering their markets can render their mini-grid unviable. Rather than seeing “grid versus mini-grid” as a policy choice, Beyond Off-Grid: Integrating Mini-Grids with India’s Evolving Electricity System explores ways we can encourage more of both: to have the grid operate in partnership with a network of distributed mini-grids to accelerate electrification.
What does the roadmap for this ‘interconnection’ of our energy system look like? How can we leverage both government and private investment? What are the different interconnection models and their commercial, technical and regulatory implications? Where do mini-grids go from here? This timely report – commissioned by the Asha Impact Trust in collaboration with Shakti Foundation and Rockefeller Foundation – provides a multi-layered perspective to address these questions based on extensive research, wide-ranging policymaker interactions, and our investment experience evaluating mini-grid operators.

Khawaja Danish Farooq defines a point of difference as factors that differentiate a company's goods or services from its competitors. This differentiation aims to increase customer benefit and brand loyalty. However, too much differentiation could cause a company to lose standardization within its industry and customers. A point of difference is similar to a unique selling proposition but more broadly refers to any competitive advantage, while a unique selling proposition is the single most valued advantage for a target market. Examples of effective points of difference include delivering a service within a timeframe, having proprietary processes, awards, or promising a certain customer experience.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

Companies Ordinance 1984.
•
The Government of Pakistan took control of the Company by acquiring majority
shareholding in 1952.
•
The licensed area of KESC is spread over entire Karachi and its suburbs up to Dhabeji
and Gharo in Sindh and over Hub, Uthal, Vindhar andBelainBaluchistan.
•
The privatization of the Company has been finalized in November 2005 with the
transfer of 73% shares of Government ofPakistanalongwithManagement Controltothe

of Pakistan in .7. It came into existence on September 13, 1913 uncle the Indian
Companies Act of 1882 and was nationalized in 1952 before 2. KESC was a
government organization with limited population and limited capacity generators
power supply. It was privatized in November 2005 and gradually began to grow
when in 2008 Abraj Capital took over. It slowly spread over in all the provinces and
new plants were developed. Over the years the backbones of distributional system
increased to 1100. KESC is a monopoly and therefore faces no other competition in
load shedding or transmission. It focuses on supplying Karachi and other remote
areas near to Karachi south as Uthal, Bela, Vindhar, Hub and Gharu. These remote
networks prefer KESC over other supplying companies because KESC is nearer to
thern other than the other supplying companies such as WABDA, HESCO and PESCO,
who are the supplying net + Naks for Baluchistan, Quetta etc. This network stretches
for 6500 km 2. It is currently serving 2.2 million customers. KESC provides electricity
to industrial, merdal, residential and agricultural areas.

We Care’ – Our Health Philosophy
Employee health is a top priority at KE, and under the “We Care” program employees
and their families receive preventive treatment. Regular vaccination campaigns are
run in line with the World Health Organization National Health Program and
Expanded Program for Immunization to protect employees and their families against
Hepatitis-B and other highly infectious diseases. Awareness sessions on first aid and
personal hygiene are also conducted. This program has reduced the occurrence of
diseases, lowered absenteeism, and increased employee efficiency.
7. 7
“NobodyGets Hurt” – Our Safety Philosophy
The “Nobody Gets Hurt” philosophy was adopted to provide a safe and injury-free
work environment to employees, and a safer distribution network to consumers. A
comprehensive Safety Management System was formulated and implemented on
the principles of International Standards Organization (ISO) OMS 9001, EMS 14000
and Occupational Health and Safety Assessment Specification (OHSAS) 18000, to
inculcate a safety culture throughout the organization.
Business Units are encouraged to take safety initiatives and safe behavior is
acknowledged through various awards forindividuals and Business Units; violations
of safety are reprimanded. On average, more than 10,000 employees are trained
annually on topics within HSE.
Emergency Response Plans are in place forall locations of strategic importance and
all occupational accidents are investigated by the HSEQ team promptly forfuture
prevention.
Reaching Out to the Customers – Public Safety
For the first time in Pakistan, a power utility has invested marketing dollars to
promote safety. Marketing awareness campaigns on general public safety are
conducted annually, especially during the monsoon season, through extensive
coverage in electronic, print and outdoormedia. Public outreach are also organized
on an annual basis. Feedback fromthe campaigns has been positive, and the number
of fatalities reported has generally declined.
One can also report any electrical safety hazards here fora quick response by our
team which is active round-the-clock. Since 2011, more than 2,000 safety hazards
have been reported and resolved.
Recognition
KE’s HSEQ standards have also been formally commended by its peers. These public
and prestigious acknowledgements of our commitment to HSEQ are a testament to
our continuous adherence to HSEQ throughout the organization.
8. 8
In 2016 the organization KE won the prestigious renowned ACCA-WWF award, the
National Forum for Environment & Health NFEH Environmental Excellence Award for
the seventh year running, and the National Level Safety and Fire Prevention Award.
KE is working with the Pakistan Engineering Council to develop the National Electric
Safety Code for power and telecom sectors, and has also been recognized by the
United States Agency forInternational Development forits safe practices.
Generation
Over the last few years, KE has enhanced its generation capacity by approximately
1,057 MW and improved its overall fleet efficiency by 23%. The organization now
generates almost 55% of the electricity it distributes through its own systems.
KE’s fleet efficiency has increased from 30.4% in (Jan-Dec, 2008) to 37.1% (Jan-Dec,
2015).
Transmission & Distribution
T &D losses have been reduced to an all-time low of 22.2%.
Collectionfrom more than two-thirds of the city stands at 92%.
61% of consumers are load shed-free.
The organization has achieved a complete roll-out of SAP IS-U,the first of its
kind in the region.
KE became the first ever distribution company in Pakistan to earn an ISO 9001
– 2008 certificationforits Integrated Business Centers. To date, 17 IBCs and
four departments have achieved the certification.
KE has initiated an e-bill payment solution with major banks at the branch
level, aiming to eliminate manual processing, control invalid transaction
processing and improve overall data processing.
Health, Safety and Environment
Employee training on safety tools/techniques resulted in a 51% reduction in
employee accidents and an 80% reduction in asset damage (from 2010 to 2015).
Privatization
9. 9
During 2002 and 2003, incentives were introduced in preparation for KE’s
privatization, which eventually finalized on 29 November 2005 with a 71% transfer of
ownership to a consortium of the Saudi Al-Jomaih Group of Companies and Kuwait’s
National Industries Group (NIG), with the government still retaining around 26%
stake. The privatized consortium was unable to improve the Company’s financial and
operational crisis.
Term FinanceCertificates
In July 2012, KE declared that the first ever utility sectorbonds issued by it, the Rs. 2
billion AZM Term Finance Certificates, were fully subscribed. The history making
venture received an overwhelming response frominvestors - the entire subscription
was completed within the first six weeks of the three-month period, which was
reflective of the confidence reposed in KE's certificates.
In January 2014, KE introduced Pakistan’s first sharia-compliant investment
certificate named, Sukuk. Like its predecessor AZM, the Sukuk certificates is also
expected to set new records in sales and add to the trust of the KE consumers.
Largest Employee Engagement Program In The History Of
Pakistan
KE declared 2012 as the “Yearof Turnaround”, and organized AZM Tameer-e-Nau
Conference spread over 45 sessions during the year in which all its 10,962 employees
took part. The Conference was aimed at transformation of the Company mindset and
to convert the once government-controlled half-working utility into an efficient,
effective and successful entity. The AZM Conference expressed the unanimous
commitment to transform KE into a truly customer-centric private entity. The
employees pledged to reinforce the common goal to restore Karachi to its former
glory as the ‘City Of Lights’.
Power generation & transmission
By 2012, KE achieved Gross Dependable Generation Capacity of 1670 Megawatts.
The latest addition to its generation fleet took place in May 2015 when its Korangi
plant saw the addition of another Combined Cycle unit. This added another 27 MW
to the existing 220 MW that the power plant was generating. Before that, in April
2012, KE’s newly constructed prime power station called Bin Qasim Power Station
No. II started to generate 560 additional megawatts when it was converted to
10. 10
Combined Cycle technology. Overall, 1057 MWs had been added to KE’s installed
power generation capacity, from January 2009 to May 2015, by construction of new
power plants, improvement of existing fleet efficiency by 21.7 per cent through the
measures stated above in addition to the replacement of old machines with highly
efficient machines, timely and digital annual maintenance and overhaul of Bin Qasim
Power Station I’s old units and by optimum dispatch of electricity. Reliability of the
system has been improved by reducing unit tripping by 33% and by 31% reduction in
the loss of un-served energy. KE’s 180 MW GE – Jenbacher Gas Engines – Project has
been awarded “Best Fast Track Project (Silver Award)” and “Best Plant in the Region”
title by Asian Power Magazine.
Integrated Business Centers (IBC)
To provide one-window service to customers, KE management launched 29 IBCs
(Integrated Business Centers) across Karachi catering to all customer related issues
from new connections to bills amendment and faults repair. The IBCs were
established after clubbing maintenance centers and billing zones. In June 2011, KE
also launched Virtual IBCs afterthe success of IBCs forgiving customers better
services. VIBCs work just like IBCs. Call Centre 118 has also been modernized
reinforced and its performance has improved, bringing the complaint attendance
time to a just few hours from the days and weeks in the past.
In addition to these, KE has also introduced Mobile IBCs especially in under-
privileged areas foron-spot bill-payment facilities and distribution of low-cost
meters among people. It has ensured a quick resolution time and received great
response from consumers.
Thought Leadership Forum
KE, in line with its vision to promote enlightened thoughts and objectivity, has
created a prestigious "Thought Leadership Forum" as a contribution towards the
development of the countries economy. Under this forum, seminars related to key
economic issues and opportunities are organized periodically focusing on logical,
implementable and contemporary perspectives aimed at sustainable economic and
social development. KE invites most respected and established thought leaders who
present their in-depth analysis of various economic issues and their solutions.
Businesspersons, corporate leaders, diplomats, media personalities and key
achievers from various walks of life are invited to attend these seminars.

Campaigns
While describing key challenges facedby power sector, State Bank of Pakistan notes:
"… Leakages in terms of theft and inefficiencies at the generation and transmission
stage must be seriously addressed. In this regard, the example of a privatized KE is
insightful: this utility has shed surplus staff (despite stiff union opposition); has cut
power supply of unpaid bills (even forhigh-profile government agencies); has
invested in more efficient generation units; and has formulated a commercially
driven load-shedding schedule. As a result, the situation is quite different in Karachi
compared to the rest of the country. In May 2015, KE launched a mega campaign
against defaulters and power thieves called “Operation Burq”. Working in tandem
with law enforcement agencies, teams were appointed to collect payments, register
cases against non payers, and reduce losses through actively chasing defaulters. TV,
print, and social media campaigns were run to bring people into the loop about the
campaign’s results. This campaign continued successfully till July of the same year
having had an aggressive approach. After the success of Operation Burq in 2015,
Operation Burq II was launched in January 2016. The bill against electricity theft and
default which was passed in the Assembly armed KE teams this time to deal with the
perpetrators according to the law. TV, print, and digital media campaigns kept the
consumers apprised with the progress of the Operation.
Project Ujala is an effort that KE is carrying out all across Karachi to bring an end to
power theft and bring about a positive change in the lives of thousands of people by
spreading Ujala (brightness) in their lives. Through the implementation of kunda-
resistant Aerial Bundled Cabling, distribution of low-cost meters to low income
communities KE is on the mission to light up Karachi household by household. It aims
to work towards a better livelihood, reliable supply of electricity with consistent
voltage forits consumers, and to spread Ujala to 200 communities - 1 million people
- by June 2017.
The target will be achieved through the conversion of existing power lines to Aerial
Bundled Cables. ABC are overhead power lines consisting of a number of insulated
wires bundled tightly together. It is a safer and more reliable way of conducting
electricity and it requires less maintenance. Most importantly ABC prevents power
theft through the use of kundas/hooks. It seeks to put an end to kunda (hook)
culture in the city thus preventing power theft.
Communities are also being provided with on-the-spot healthcare facilities,
sanitation awareness, and fun-filled fairs forchildren as part of Ujala.
12. 12
Online billpayment
KE in a major value addition departed from conventional practice of bill payment and
established a system of online payment service in collaborationwith 12 leading
banks of the country, becoming the first power utility in Pakistan to bring the
convenience of an integrated and round the clock online bill payment service. The
banks are: Allied Bank, Burj Bank, Bank Al Habib, HBL, KASB Bank, MCB Bank,
Standard Chartered bank, Summit Bank, Samba Bank, Soneri Bank and UBL.
Customers can log on to www.ke.com.pk,the KE official website, anytime and from
anywhere in the world, and pay by using their 13 digit account number. KE
customers can also visit their own internet banking page and pay their power bills by
entering their 13 digit KE account number. This convenient service saves them from
waiting forthe printed bill to arrive and physically visiting bank branches and
standing in queues. Customers not familiar with online payment, have been offered
other value added alternate payment facilities via Easy Paisa outlets, UBL Omni
shops and NADRA offices by just presenting their 13 digit account number at a much
wider distribution network of these institutions.
Power plants
KE is the only vertically-integrated power utility in Pakistan. It produces electricity
from its own generation units with an installed capacity of 2262 MW. It also has
power purchase agreements for 1021 MW from various IPPs (Independent Power
Producers), WAPDA, KANUPP (Karachi Nuclear Power Plant) and through imports.
These purchases are based on an optimized generation cost that is governed by the
fuel cost at the respective power facilities and their operating efficiencies.
Bin Qasim Power Station 1 (Capacity: 1260 MW)
Bin Qasim Power Station 2 (Capacity: 560 MW)

The Rebrand
Rebrand was an important pillar of the ‘holistic, inside out & outside in’ framework
which was articulated in 2009 known as the ‘Value CreationPlan’ that aimed to
convert KE, froma weak brand to an exemplary brand and a rebrand could only be
done once positive changes & tractiontowards turnaround (tandem with reality) was
consistently experienced by majority of the stakeholders & star customers that don’t
steal or default. The scorecardof milestones achieved in the last 4 years is very
extensive however; it is worthwhile to mention few achievements that paved the
way to rebrand:
56% of the city including industries exempted from load shed.
Lowest ever T & D losses from40% to just 23.7% (1% line loss is equivalent to
approximately US$ 1 million)
Union-free work environment
Unprecedented investment of approximately US$ 1.3 billion in the power
infrastructure
One-window-solution offices
The Management and the Board are encouraged by the success the Company has
experienced during the past few years as part of the turnaround and wish to
continue with a stronger zeal and energy under a new identity that is in line with our
aspirations, ESG philosophy, does not restrict us geographically & yet does not shy
away from its legacy.
New Identity
To reflect its renewed commitment to serve its vast consumer-base and instill its
core resolve into its functions, the Company revamped its corporate identity
changing its name, logo and tagline. The new identity, that entails 3 feathers that
represent their primary function & ESG (Environmental, Social Governance) values,
creates a perception of a robust organization dedicated to serve Karachi & hence
Pakistan.

Future Plans
K-Electric unveils plan forthe development of a 900 MW power project that will
significantly increase generation capacity and play a critical role in further supporting
the energy needs of Karachi.
The 900 MW Bin Qasim Power Station III will be built at K-Electric’s Bin Qasim site at
an estimated cost of US$ 1 billion and includes simultaneous upgrades to associated
transmission infrastructure. The plant will be dual fired with primary fuel expected to
be RLNG (Re-gasified Liquid Natural Gas). Once completed, it will represent one of
the largest private sectorinvestments of its kind in the country’s power sector.
According to K-Electric CEO TayyabTareen, “The 900 MW BQPS-III is a big investment
for K-Electric but our conviction is that this is essential in meeting Karachi’s
immediate energy demands. We aim to commission the project in the fastest
possible time and are confident that with the right facilitationfrom all quarters,
power from the plant may be added to our supply as soon as summer of 2018.”
Waqar Siddique, Chairman K-Electric and Managing Partner The Abraaj Group, said
“An investment of the size and magnitude of BQPS-III once again reinforces Abraaj’s
