The Pakistan Electric Power Company (Private) Limited (PEPCO) has been entrusted the task of managing the transition of WAPDA from a bureaucratic structure to a corporate, commercially viable and productive entity. It is a mammoth task and progress in the initial months was rather slow, but one should keep in mind that responsibility is enormous and transition is a long drawn process.
Before going into further details of the restructuring programme, it is necessary to understand the shift in the GoP policy. The GoP, in line with its Strategic Plan of 1992 approved by the cabinet committee, had decided to restructure the entire power sector in the country.
It was extremely surprising to read Naeem Tahir’s article on the Power Sector as appearing in the op-ed pages of Daily Times of August 7, 2010. The gentleman’s foray with comparatively less insight into the subject has resulted in a skewed analysis.
POLICY FRAMEWORK FOR NEW - CAPTIVE POWER PRODUCERS (N-CPPs)
To lessen the gravity of power shortage in the country it was decided by WAPDA/PEPCO to
acquire surplus and redundant Captive Power from APTMA members as one of the
supply side measures. This Captive Power was mostly oil based. Subsequently, Sugar Industry
also made a similar offer for sale of surplus (bagasse based) Captive Power. So far about 182 MW
produced by different CPPs on different fuels could be fed to DISCOs on take-and-pay-basis at
tariffs approved by WAPDA Authority/PEPCO under the guidelines of NEPRA. Up till now APTMA
remains the main contributor.
The Pakistan Electric Power Company (PEPCO) is planning to install an additional 747 MW combined cycle power plant at Guddu Thermal Power Station. The proposed power project would comprise a 747 MW combined cycle power plant consisting of two gas turbines of 243MW each, two heat recovery steam generators (HRSG) followed by one steam turbine having a capacity of 261 MW and associated equipment. An environmental impact assessment (EIA) of the proposed project has been conducted in accordance with the stipulations of Pakistan’s environmental laws and the environmental guidelines of the International Finance Corporation (IFC).
