Electricity profile 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.
Improvements
• 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.
Installed capacity
• Electricity – total installed capacity: 25,100
MW (2015)
• Electricity – Sources (2014)
– 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
– average demand-17,000 MW
– shortfall-between 5,000 MW and 6,000 MW
Four major power producers in
country
• Water and power development
authority (WAPDA)
• Karachi electric (K-Electric)
• Independent power producers
(IPPs)
• Pakistan Atomic Energy
Commission (PAEC).

Energy consumption by sector
How electricity gets to us
How is coal converted into electricity?
• Steam coal, also known as thermal coal, is used in power
stations to generate electricity.
• Coal is first milled to a fine powder, which increases the
surface area and allows it to burn more quickly. In these
pulverised coal combustion (PCC) systems, the powdered coal
is blown into the combustion chamber of a boiler where it is
burnt at high temperature.
• The hot gases and heat energy produced converts water – in
tubes lining the boiler into steam.
•The high pressure steam is passed into a turbine containing
thousands of propeller-like blades.
•The steam pushes these blades causing the turbine shaft to
rotate at high speed. A generator is mounted at one end of
the turbine shaft and consists of carefully wound wire coils.
Electricity is generated when these are rapidly rotated in a
strong magnetic field. After passing through the turbine, the
steam is condensed and returned to the boiler to be heated
once again.
•The electricity generated is transformed into the higher
voltages (up to 400,000 volts) used for economic, efficient
transmission via power line grids. When it nears the point of
consumption, such as our homes, the electricity is
transformed down to the safer 100-250 voltage systems used
in the domestic market.
