Energy Supply/ Demand Situation

• Pakistan is currently facing severe energy shortages

• Electricity supply shortages of 4000 - 6000 MW have

been experienced in the recent years.

• Installed power generation capacity is 23,538 MW as

detailed below:

• Hydro power plants 6,716 MW

• Public sector generation companies 4,720 MW

• Independent Power Producers 11,315 MW

• Nuclear power plants 787 MW


Energy Supply/ Demand Situation (Contd.)

• Per capita electricity consumption is very low i.e.

340 kWh as compared to world average of 3,000

kWh.

• The electricity peak demand is increasing at 6-8%

per annum

• To meet the growing electricity demand, all types

of energy resources need to be developed.

• Nuclear power can play an important role in

future electricity supplies.


Coal, 0.1%

Gas, 29.4%

Hydro, 29.0%

Nuclear, 4.9%

Oil, 36.2%

Imports, 0.4%

Total : 98,664 Million kWh

Nuclear Power Development in Pakistan

• Pakistan has an established nuclear power

programme (NPP) , as such it is beyond the Third

IAEA Milestone (ready to commission and operate

the first nuclear power plant).

• It has three operating nuclear power plants of 787

MW.

• Two more Nuclear Power Plants of 340 MW each are under construction expected to be operational by the end of 2016/17.

• More Nuclear Power Plants are planned which would increase Nuclear Power Generation capacity to about 8800 MWe by 2030.

• Several PAEC Projects are working on Design, Analysis, Safety and other aspects of existing and proposed power plants.

Challenges in HR Development for the Expanding

Nuclear Power Programme of Pakistan

• There are several contemporary technologies already

developed and still under development in developed

countries for design and safe operation of nuclear

power plants. Manpower development in such

technologies is a challenge for Pakistan in future.

• Replacement of ageing/retiring highly experienced

Nuclear Scientists and Engineers.

• IAEA can contribute by providing collaboration forums.

activities between the developed and developing

countries for manpower requirements for safe design

and operation of nuclear power plants.


Pakistan’s Experience in HR Development & Capacity

Building for its Expanding Nuclear Power Programme (NPP)

• Pakistan has operating experience of more than 55

Reactor-years.

• It has been operating its three operating reactors in safe

and secure manner under IAEA safeguards.

• It has capable manpower development institutes that

support its nuclear power programme by providing

necessary manpower for contracting, participating in

design, commissioning and operation of these plants.

• Pakistan has been actively participating in the activities

organized by the IAEA for safe and secure operation of

nuclear power plants and is willing to participate in such

activities in future.

Conclusion


Sharing knowledge/ experience through IAEA Meetings,

Workshops, RCA and TC projects will be very useful for

further enhancement of PAEC’s manpower development

and capacity building activities to support its expanding

Nuclear Power Programme in the following areas:

• Education and Training

• Human Resource Development

• Knowledge Management

• Knowledge Networks
