0 Introduction

Pakistan Water and Power Development Authority (WAPDA) is an integrated utility


in Pakistan. WAPDA is responsible for the development of Hydel Power and Water S
ector Projects in Pakistan. WAPDA operates through- Power wing and Water wing, I
t is engaged in the generation, transmission and distribution of power. In addit
ion, it also manages irrigation, water supply and drainage system in the country
. Further, it is also responsible for prevention of water logging and reclamatio
n of waterlogged and saline lands. Its responsibilities also include flood manag
ement and inland navigation. WAPDA was created as a Semi-Autonomous Body in 1958
. The company is headquartered in Lahore, Pakistan.
The Pakistan Water and Power Development Authority (WAPDA) was established throu
gh an act of parliament in February 1958 for integrated and rapid development an
d maintenance of water and power resources of the Country. This includes control
ling soil salinity and water logging to rehabilitate the affected land in order
to strengthen the predominantly agricultural economy of the country. As per the
charter, amended in March 1959 to transfer the existing electricity departments
from the federating units to it, WAPDA has been assigned the duties of investiga
tion, planning and execution of projects and schemes for:
• Generation, Transmission and distribution of power,
• Irrigation, water supply and drainage,
• Prevention of water logging and reclamation of saline land,
• Flood control and
• Inland navigation.
Under the later on developments, vis-à-vis the “Energy Policy 1994”, setting up of the
rmal power generation projects was shifted to the private sector. Similarly, as
a result of restructuring of the Power Wing, the utility part was corporatized i
nto independent companies. This shift from convergence to divergence gave birth
to 13 entities to operate in different zones. These are National Transmission an
d Dispatch Company (NTDC), four thermal power generation companies (GENCOs) and
eight distribution companies (DISCOs). The present status of these companies is
of corporate public limited entities under the Umbrella of EPCO, ultimately to g
o privatized as planned. The residual Power Wing is therefore now responsible fo
r major hydro-electric power projects and schemes in operation.
1.2 Water Vision 2025
WAPDA has formulated a comprehensive $25–33 billion National Water Resource and Hy
dropower Development Program me, entitled Water Vision 2025. The Water Vision 20
25 projects are expected to generate 16,000 MW of hydroelectricity. Other goals
are to prevent water shortages, limit drought and increase water storage for a g
rowing population. Five massive hydropower projects have been announced by the P
resident of Pakistan; these are to be completed by 2016, with a generation capac
ity of 9,500 MW. Two of the projects are ready for construction, while three are
in the stages of feasibility studies and preparation of tender documents.
Water Vision 2025 consists of three phases. Phase I was expected to start in 199
3 but was delayed. The priority of water sector projects under Phase I of Water
Vision 2025 are Gomal Dam (NWFP), Mirani Dam and Mithan Kot Barrage at Kachhi Ca
nal (Balochistan) raising of Mangla Dam (Azad Kashmir), Greater Thal Canal phase
I (Punjab) and Thar/Rainee Canals phase I (Sindh). The total cost of these Phas
e I projects will be $2.467 billion with a construction period of five years. Un
der Phase II, Hingol Dam, Balochistan Dam and Satpara Dam (Northern Areas), Chas
hma Right Bank Canal and Khurram Tangi Dam (NWFP), phase II of the Greater Thal
Canal Akhori Dam and Sanjwal Dam (Punjab), phase II of Thar/Rainee Canals, Gajna
i and Sehwan Barrage (Sindh) will be completed in 3–6 years, except Basha Dam, whi
ch will take 8–10 years for its completion. The total cost of Phase II projects wi
ll be $8.94 billion. These 11 projects will have a storage capacity of 12.79 mil
lion acre-feet, would generate over 3362 mW of power, and would irrigate 1.4 mil
lion hectares of land. Under Phase III, Yugo Dam, Skardu Dam, Dhok Dam, Rohtas D
am, Naulang Dam and Khadji Dam will be completed.

2.1 WAPDA
The electricity supply service in Pakistan, initially, was undertaken by
different agencies, both in public and private sectors, in different areas. In
order to provide for the unified and coordinated development of the water and po
wer resources, Water and Power Development Authority (WAPDA) was created in 1958
through WAPDA Act, 1958.
2.1.1 LAHORE ELECTRIC SUPPLY COMPANY LIMITED (LESCO)
LESCO
The environment and structure of the power industry throughout the world
are undergoing dramatic change. The power sector is moving from monopoly to pri
vatization and from integration to disintegration. To keep pace with this change
, the Government of Pakistan approved a Strategic Plan in 1994 as a consequence
of which the power wing of WAPDA has been unbundled into 12 Companies for genera
tion, transmission and distribution of electricity.
Lahore Area Electricity Board was reorganized into one such corporatized entity
under the name of Lahore Electric Supply Company (LESCO) with effect from 22-03-
1998, with the aim of commercialization and eventually privatization.
2.1.2 Area of Operation
LESCO s area of responsibility covers Civil Districts of Lahore, Kasur,
Okara and Sheikhupura.

2.3 Energy Resources & Power Development History
At the time of independence, Pakistan inherited 60MW of power generation
capability for a population of 31.5 million, yielding 4.5 units per capita cons
umption. Twelve years later, when WAPDA was created in 1959, the generation capa
city had increased to 119 MW. By that time country had entered the phase of deve
lopment, which required a dependable and sold infrastructure, electricity being
its most significant part. The task of power dev elopement was undertaken by WAP
DA for executing a number of Hydel and thermal generation projects, a matching t
ransmission network and a distribution system, which could sustain the load of r
apidly increasing demand of electricity.
The effects of WAPDA’s professional approach to find the solution to multi
farious problems did not take long to show. After first five years of its operat
ion by 1964-65, the electricity generation capability rose to 636 MW from 119 in
1959, and power generation to about 2,500 MKWH from 781 MKWH. Number of consume
rs in 1959 to 688 thousand in 1965, as many as 609 villages had electricity supp
lied to them by 1959, increasing to 1882 in 1965. The rapid progress witnessed a
new life to the social, technical and economic structures of the country, mecha
nized agriculture started, industrialization picked up and general living standa
rds improved. In the year 1980 the system capacity touched 3000 MW which rapidly
rose to over 7000 MW in 1990-91.
Now the total generation capacity from WAPDA’s own hydel and thermal sourc
es after completion of Chashma Hydro Power Plant plus generation from independen
t power procedures stands at 15764 MW.
2.4 Power Sector Reforms & History Of NTDC
Over the past 15 years, Pakistan has been following a strategy of deregu
lation, privatization and transformation of its public sector entities (PSEs), i
ncluding its two major power utilities, Water and Power Development Authority (W
APDA) and Karachi Electric Supply Corporation (KESC). WAPDA was established in
1958 as a semi-autonomous agency to coordinate the development of Pakistan s wat
er and power resources.
NTDC previously was the part of Water and Power Development Authority (W
APDA). It was known as Transmission and Grid Station. In December 1998, the WAPD
A Act was amended, which allowed the creation of Pakistan Electric Power Company
(PEPCO), and unbundling of WAPDA’s Power Wing into:
eight (9) distribution companies (formed from existing area boards);
three (4) generating companies (comprising 11 of WAPDA’s generating plants); and
National Transmission and Dispatch Company (NTDC).

2.5 Formation of PEPCO


PEPCO was created in May 1998 as a Management Company, owned by Governme
nt of Pakistan vested with the following corporate objectives
• The corporatization and commercialization of WAPDA’s assets block in generation, t
ransmission and distribution.
• Overseeing the design and implementation of the Manpower Transition
• Program stewardship of early business operations by the newly formed companies
• Privatization initiative
2.6 Formation of NEPRA
National Electric Power Regulatory Authority (NEPRA) was created to regu
late the unbundled Power Sector in order to promote competitive power market to
ensure reliable power supply at affordable rates to millions of electricity cust
omers in Pakistan. Major responsibilities of NEPRA include:
• Issuance of licenses to the power utilities.
• Tariff determinations in a transparent manner.
• Establishment of performance standards for the utilities.
2.7 CHARTER OF DUTIES IN WAPDA
The charter of duties of WAPDA includes investigation, planning, and exe
cution, of schemes in the following fields.
Generation, transmission and distribution of power.
• Irrigation, water supply and drainage.
• Prevention of water logging and reclamation of water logged and Salind land.
• Flood control and inland navigation.
• Inland navigation.
2.8 Follow Sind-Tass Agreement
The organization was also entrusted with the work of implementing Indus
Basin Settlement plan signed between India and Pakistan in 1960 to develop repla
cement works for management of river water and irrigation system. The life savin
g action for Pakistan’s agriculture has been WAPDA’s role in the field of water logg
ing and salinity. During past four decades WAPDA has planned and executed 60 scr
aps at a total cost of Rs.37.8 billion to cover an area of 19 million acres of a
ffected land for putting it back into production.
2.9 Division of WAPDA
NTDC is only one of the above companies, which is connected with all the
companies. Its major operations are based on the purchasing of electricity from
generation companies and selling it to distribution companies.
The other functions of NTDC are performed to handle high voltage electricity wir
es in preinstalled electrified areas and those areas to which Discos want to ele
ctrify. So we should have knowledge about all stakeholders which are generating
and distributing electricity in Pakistan like what are their major functions, pr
ojects, and their locations in order to make budgets through which NTDC will ear
n revenue in future.
2.10 Major Stakeholders Of WAPDA
Now we discuss all the companies which are the major stakeholders of WAP
DA.
These are:
• Power / Electricity Generation Cos.
• Power / Electricity Distribution Cos.
2.11 Major Sources For Generation Of Power / Electricity Are
• HYDEL Power (Controlled by Residual WAPDA)
• Thermal Power (Controlled by PEPCO)
• IPPS (Independent Power Projects) Controlled by PEPCO
• Rental Power Projects (Controlled by PEPCO)

2.12 WAPDA Residual Projects & Functions


2.12.1 Water Dam
To Constructing ,repairing & maintaining of dams is the major function o
f WAPDA.
2.12.2 Hydel Power Generation
As a consequence of partition of the Indo-Pakistan Sub-Continent in 1947
, India and Pakistan became two independent sovereign states. Hydel generation c
apacity of only 10.7 MW (9.6 MW - Malakand Power Station & 1.1 MW - Renala Power
Station) existed in the territory of Pakistan. With the passage of time, new Hy
del Power Projects of Small and Medium capacities were commissioned including th
e first water storage dam and power house at Warsak due to which country s Hydel
capability raised to about 267 MW uptill 1963.
The Irrigation System which existed at the time of partition in 1947 was
divided between the two countries without any regards to the irrigation boundar
ies which resulted in an international water dispute which was finally resolved
by signing of the Indus Water Treaty in 1960 under the aegis of World Bank. The
Treaty assigned three Eastern rivers (Ravi, Beas and Sutlej) to India and three
Western rivers (Indus, Jhelum & Chenab) to Pakistan. It also provided constructi
on of replacement works called Indus Basin Projects (IBP) to compensate for perp
etual loss of Eastern rivers water. The works proposed under the Treaty include
d two multipurpose dams i.e. Mangla Dam on Jhelum river and Tarbela Dam on Indus
river having the provision of power generation. These were commissioned in 1967
& 1977 respectively. However, their capacities were subsequently extended in di
fferent phases.
WAPDA RESOURCES
3.1 Dames
There are many dams under WAPDA control. Some important names of these d
ams are given below.
3.1.1 Tarbilla Dam
3.1.2Cashma Power Plant
3.1.3 Mangla Dam

3.1.4 Warsak Dam


3.2 Hydel Generation Capacity
The total capacity of 13 No., Hydel Stations as of today is 6443.56 ~ 64
44 MW which is 37.10% of total installed generation capacity of WAPDA. During 20
07~2008, aggregate energy sharing during the year was 33.32%. The Hydel Generati
on Capacity was reduced from 6463.16 MW to 6443.56 MW due to decommissioning of
Jabban Hydel Power Station after a fire incident in November, 2006.
3.2.1 Seasonal Variations Of Hydel Generation
The seasonal variations of reservoir levels and consequent reduction in
Power outputs of storage type hydel projects in Pakistan are very pronounced. Ta
rbela with maximum head of 450 ft. experiences variation of 230 ft. while Mangla
has 162 ft. variation against the maximum cranium of 360ft.
The lean flow period of Tarbela reservoir is from November to June when the Capa
bility reduces to as low as about 1350 MW against the maximum of 3692 MW during
high head period i.e. August to September (15% permissible overloading on Units
1~10). Lean flow period of Mangla reservoir is observed from October to March w
hen the minimum generating capability is 500 MW. The capability rises to as high
as 1150 MW during high head period (15% permissible overloading).
In all, WAPDA s Hydel generating capability varies between the two extre
mities of 2414 MW and 6746.0 MW over the cycle of a year.
3.3 Pepco Projects & Functions
PEPCO was basically established by the Federal Govt. to supervise all th
e companies’ transition process from WAPDA. No doubt all the companies are indepen
dent and registered under company ordinance 1984, but PEPCO is working till now
& control over there as an umbrella on all the companies.

3.4 Thermal Power


As per Government of Pakistan policy all thermal power generation has be
en restructured and four corporatized companies namely Jamshoro Power Generation
Company Limited (GENCO-1) head quarter at Jamshoro district Dadu near Hyderabad
Sindh, Central Power Generation Company Limited (GENCO-2) head quarter at Gudd
u district Jacobabad Sindh and Northern Power Generation Company Limited (GENCO-
3) head quarters at Muzaffargarh and Lakhra Power Generation Company Limited (GE
NCO-IV) at Khanote (Sindh) have been formed and registered. Functioning of GENCO
s has commenced.
(GENCO-I) Jamshoro Power Generation Company Limited.
(GENCO-II) Central Power Generation Company Limited.
(GENCO-III) Northern Power Generation Company Limited.
(GENCO-IV) Lakhra Power Generation Company Limited.

WAPDA s Thermal Power Generation is mainly based on generation of power from its
Steam Turbo-Generators, Gas Turbines (simple as well as Combined Cycle Units) i
nstalled at different Power Stations located in Sindh, Punjab and Balochistan pr
ovinces. Indigenous Gas & Coal is the main fuel whereas Furnace oil and HSD are
also used as alternative fuel. The total installed capacity is 4664 MW.
Structural formation of all four GENCOs is as under:
3.5 IPPS (Independent Power Producers) Controlled By PEPCO
The country had been experiencing severe power shortage during eighties
and early nineties. As a result, load shedding had to be resorted to all over th
e country. This adversely affected the national economy. It was not possible fo
r the Govt. to establish Power Plants in public sector due to shortage of funds.
In order to eliminate power shortage/load shedding in the minimum possible time
, the Government constituted an Energy Task Force in 1993 to devise a consolidat
ed and comprehensive policy for revamping and rejuvenating the energy sector. On
the recommendations of the Energy Task Force, the Government announced a “Policy
Framework and Package of Incentives for Private Sector Power Generation Projects”
in March 1994 for a large scale induction of the private sector in power develop
ment. The said Policy offered a fix level zed tariff of US$ 5.57 / kWh to the pr
ospective investors (US$ 6.1 / kWh average for 1-10 years) and a number of other
incentives to attract foreign investment in the power sector.
3.5.1 IPP Installed Capacity
In 1994, the government formulated a power policy that allows
the private sector to invest in the power sector to ensure sufficient
generation capacity. The policy also allowed full flexibility to indepe
ndent power producers (IPPs) to bring capacity on line as quickly as possib
le at predetermined power purchase prices. The government guaranteed implement
ation, fuel supply, and power purchase. (By 2001, the private sector’s share o
f installed capacity reached 5,551MW, all of which were oil-fired thermal
plants.)
1292 MW (Net 1200 MW) HUB Power Project the biggest power plant in the p
rivate sector contracted in 1992 started commercial operations in March 1997. Sh
ortly after commissioning disputes arose between GOP / WAPDA and HUBCO on tariff
and other issues. After protracted negotiations, these were resolved through Se
ttlement Agreement of December 2000 signed by the GOP, WAPDA and HUBCO.
This resulted in a lower tariff entailing a saving of about 3 billion do
llars over 30 years term of the Power Purchase Agreement. WAPDA also privatized
its 1638 MW (Net 1342 MW) Gas Turbine Power Station, Kot Addu in June 1996 by in
corporating it under the name of KAPCO and selling its 36% shares to Internation
al Power of UK. After extensive correspondence/negotiations with the Internation
al Power, the Power Purchase Agreement and other relevant documents have been am
ended, providing inter-alia, reduction in tariff from Cents 5.60 / kWh to Cents
5.04 / kWh, resulting in a saving of about 1.3 billion dollars to WAPDA over 25
years term of the Agreement.
3.5.2 Rental Power Projects
During the Government of PM Shaukat Aziz (2006), ECC in its decision of
16th August, 2006 approved 150 MW Rental Power Plants proposal by WAPDA / NPGCL
for installation at Piranghaib, Multan as emergency measure subject to acceptanc
e of tariff by NEPRA, stipulating that WAPDA should only rent as much power as i
s absolutely necessary to be utilized with high load factor for economic utiliza
tion of capacity. The ECC was briefed by then government that given the urgency
to have additional power capacity before next summer as per WAPDA’s demand project
ions and the long gestation period for new plant, renting of plant/plants appear
s to be the only short term solution if shortfalls are to be met.

Further, as the commissioning of the new IPPs for which gas has already
been allocated will take 2-3 years, practical arrangements may be worked out wit
h the Ministry of Petroleum and Natural Resources to utilize this gas for the re
nted plants in the intervening period. The then Planning and Development Divisio
n concurred with the proposal of M/o Water and Power to keep the momentum of eco
nomic growth progressive, and also to meet the high anticipated power shortages
in the country.
During the Caretaker Government of PM Mian Muhammad Sommro (15.02.2008)
, the ECC approved four Rental Power Plants each of 200-300 MW (combined capacit
y 1000-1200MW) as Rental Power Plants in private sector to be located at Sahiwal
, Gakhar, Kotlakhpath, Sialkot, Shikarpur, Jamshoro, Eminabad & Sheikupura. The
ECC advised that the RPPs be arranged for a period of four years, PEPCO would re
evaluate RPPs location sites on the basis of oil storage space plus transportati
on and environmental impact. Secretaries Finance and Water & Power along with MD
-PPRA will review the procurement mechanism and avoid delay in induction of RPPs
while making it PPRA- compliant.
3.6 Power Policy
3.6.1 Power Policy 1995
3.6.2 General
The Government of Pakistan in March 1994 announced the Policy Framework
and Package of Incentives for private sector power development in the country. I
t received a tremendous response albeit for all Thermal Plants. GOP now intends
to encourage proposals for power generation based on indigenous resources namely
its hydel resources. Hydel power being cheaper, will provide tariff relief to t
he consumers, utilize indigenous resources, involve Pakistani entrepreneurs and
provide benefits of economic growth to the relatively backward parts of Pakistan
.

3.6.3 The Need For A Separate Hydel Power Policy


In Pakistan nearly all hydro potential results from discharges into the
Indus River basin. Discharges result primarily from precipitation and snow-melt
in the northern mountainous ranges of the country. Discharges take place in smal
l rivulets coming further down to the bigger tributaries of River Indus and then
to Indus River itself. The development of hydropower projects however, is chara
cterized by remote locations and seasonal variations. Pakistan s climatic factor
s including rainfall and snowmelt, make it relatively easy to develop hydel gene
ration during the months of July to December while the period January to June is
extremely dry in terms of stream flow. In order, therefore, to arrest the risk
of over development in summer months that would create an unbridgeable gap in wi
nter months, the total requirement of hydel plants in private sector may be limi
ted to 2,000 MW upto the end of the 9th Five Year Plan. However, the limit of 2,
000 MW will be reviewed at a later stage and can be enhanced to suit the nationa
l priorities and power demand growth. Realizing that these peculiarities of hydr
opower development necessitate special consideration the Government has devised
an attractive policy package to evoke response of private sector similar to that
of thermal power. The salient features of the policy framework and package of i
ncentives devised for development of hydropower through private sector.
3.7 Power Policy 2002
3.7.1 Introduction
Electricity constitutes one of the most important components of infrastr
ucture and plays a key role in national growth and development. With only about
half of nearly 140.5 million people (2001 population estimate) having access to
electricity, a huge population base provides an ideal opportunity for expansion
of electricity generation. The growing pace of urbanization and industrializatio
n also puts a premium on demand for electricity.
Demands for augmenting the power infrastructure, unsatisfactory performa
nce of public sector entities, ever-squeezing budgets in the public sector, the
need to make the tariff free from subsidies and cross-subsidies and reflect mark
et prices etc., provide motivation for resource mobilization, improving efficien
cy through involvement of the private sector, to reduce the burden on budgetary
resources caused by ailing enterprises and more importantly, to meet consumer ex
pectations within affordable limits of tariff.
Reform of the power sector through restructuring and deregulation is hig
h on the agenda of the Government of Pakistan (GOP). The GOP is committed to pur
sue a far-reaching reform program me for the power sector and to help meet the c
ountry s future power needs. Implementation of the envisaged program me will bri
ng about a gradual transition of the power system from integrated, state-owned u
tilities to a decentralized system with separate generation, transmission and di
stribution entities, having substantial private ownership and management, reflec
ting and encouraging a commercial and competitive operating environment.
3.7.2 Objectives
The main objectives of the Policy are:
• To encourage and ensure exploitation of indigenous resources,
which include renewable energy resources, human resources,
participation of local engineering and manufacturing capabilities;
• To provide sufficient capacity for power generation at the least
cost, and to avoid capacity shortfalls;
• To be attuned to safeguarding the environment.
• To ensure that all stakeholders are looked after in the process, i.e. a win-win
situation for all; and
3.7.3 Scope
• The scope of the Policy covers.
• Projects developed by the public sector and then divested.
• Public-private partnership projects; and
• Private sector projects;
• Public sector projects;
3.8 2009 Policy Framework For New - Captive Power Producers
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 a
s one of the supply side measures. This Captive Power was mostly oil based. Subs
equently, Sugar Industry also made a similar offer for sale of surplus (biogases
based) Captive Power. So far about 182 MW produced by different CPPs on differe
nt fuels could be fed to DISCOs on take-and-pay-basis at tariffs approved by WAP
DA Authority/PEPCO under the guidelines of NEPRA. Up till now APTMA remains the
main contributor.

3.8.1 NTDC Development Programs


3.8.2 Current Projects
Addition of new transmission lines and sub stations is an integral part
of NTDC program for strengthening/augmentation and expansion of the existing int
egrated system in order to meet the power transmission requirements efficiently
& effectively and for dispersal of power from generating plants to the load cent
ers.
To cater for the above, a number of schemes have been taken in hand. A l
ist of the ongoing projects is given in the tables below.
Approved PC-I cost at US$1=Rs. 30.83
3.9 Finance department
Finance department plays vital role in every organization we can say tha
t it’s a back born of every organization. Without it nobody can start the operatio
ns of any type of the business. WAPDA is generating revenue through producing e

overall department, assign their duties, and arrange training programs for emplo
yees inside the office or for the employees in the sub offices. There are 1600 e
mployees working under this department.
5.3 Share and capacity of hydel throughout total generation
Before 10 years generation is 70% from HYDEL and 30% from thermal but no
w the 30% from HYDEL and 70% from thermal. So the cost is very high because of m
ore thermal generation. The capacity of HYDEL production is 27000 million units
to 30000 million killo watts (MKH) but still the total requirement is 90000 mkh.
5.4.1 Sources of generation
HYDEL generation is getting from fallow of water in dams such as
• Terballa dam
• Varsac dam
• Mangla dam
• Other small dams
5.4.2 WAPDA thermal
Four generation companies which are categories as company one, company t
wo, company three and company four. For example the generation company at Jamsho
ro.
5.4.3 Fuel wise generation
Fuel wise generation provide electricity according to the following ways.
• Use Furness oil or residue Furness oil(RFO)
• Use of gas
• Use of high speed diesel(HSD)
• Use of coal.
5.4.4 Cost of thermal generation
The cost of thermal generation is very high according to the HYDEL gener
ation. The cost of thermal generation of electricity is rupees 300000 million an
nually.
5.4.5 Independent power producers (IPP)
These are private companies generate the electricity and make the contra
ct with WAPDA and provide the electricity to WAPDA according to the decided rate
s.
5.4.6 Sharing the capacity
The generation companies is provide 35000 million units and from GENCOS
17000 million units.
5.4.7 Not exact prices of all generation companies
All IPP charge different rates . there in no similarity in rate among I
PP.
5.4.8 By pass of merit order
This contract make through NATIONAL POWER CONTROL ORDER. A rate which di
fferent companies offer and WAPDA make the contract according to rate and prices
from the suitable companies. Fro example the requirement of power in Lahore but
cost rupees 6.50 per unit which can get from the nearest place of the Lahore or
from Karachi is rupees 5 per unit of the cost but with conveyance cost is rupee
s 7 per unit. The suitable is first one because is its price rupees 6.5 per unit
and order is take place from this company by WAPDA.
5.4.9 Purpose of bypass of merit order
According to the bypass of merit order observing the demand and order fo
r generation companies
5.4.10 Cost break up
Fixed cost paid even units is closed. Fixed cost always charge on capaci
ty. According the WAPDA consider the total cost plus development cost.
5.4.11 Making the cost break up
In costing and planning department discuss and calculate the components
of costs which are included both fixed cost and variable cost through the ENERGY
PURCHASE PRICE and CAPACITY PURCHASE PRICE. Energy purchase price or EPP showin
g the variable cost and Capacity purchase price or CPP included on fixed cost. T
he variable cost showing the costs of fuel, gas, and other variable costs but th
e fixed costs are normally included on operating and maintenance costs.
5.4.12 Energy purchase price (EPP)
In which discuss the total variable cost which normally consists fuel co
st plus VOM.
• Variable operating maintenance cost (|VOM)
• Consumption of gas and fuel :
Consumption of gas and fuel in terms of rupees.
5.4.13 Admin cost
In admin cost included the salaries, wages, and other operating costs.
5.4.14 Capacity purchase prices (CPP)

5.4.16 Debit service liability (DSL)
In which discuss the principle amount and interest, secondly some units
of generations electricity seasonally and the fixed cost bear throughout the yea
r.
5.4.17 Contract from IPP
IPP provide electricity to the WAPDA, WAPDA making contract from these i
ndependent power producers for example contract to the company which charge vari
able cost from EPP on fuel base generation. So WAPDA agreement to this company a
nd decide the fuel price for example the cost is rupees 45000/3000 units. So the
price is rupees 15 per unit.
5.4.18 Indexation Factor
In which calculate and decide the rate according to the units such as 10
0million units in 1997, the cost is rupees 1 per unit. so the cost is also rupee
s 100million.
5.4.19 Fuel Indexation
It means charge the cost according to the fuel rate. The rate decide acc
ording to the current rate of fuel .for example the fuel indexation is 100millio
n units and the rate is rupees 15 per unit. The cost is rupees 1500million and t
he units are measure in maga watts. these are always calculate monthly.
5.4.20 According to CPP
In which for example 100million units and the reference price is rupees
10 per unit. so the cost is rupees 10000million.In that method the major thing
is factor of the rate of dollar. for example we assume the rate of dollar is eq
ual to rupees 80 and the cost is now rupees 80000million.
5.4.21 Line losses
According to the WAPDA there are different types of the line losses whic
h are underlying.

7.0 FOREIGN CURRENCY DEPARTMENT


7.1 Funds Allocate By the Authority
I visited in Foreign currency department in my 4 weak of Internship Mr S
hoail Ahmed Director of Foreign Currency give brief knowledge of this department
.WAPDA needs funds for its steadily expanding development programs and other fu
nctions in terms of its charter. The Authority is entitled to draw upon Authorit
y Fund, which consists of:
• Grants made by the Federal and Provincial Governments for specific jobs.
• Loans obtained from the Federal and Provincial Governments.
• Sale proceeds of WAPDA bonds issued under the authority of government.
• Sale of power.
• All other sums received by the Authority.
As a mean of self-sufficiency WAPDA is also required to finance a part o
f its power development programs through funds rise from revenue surplus of the
Electricity Operations Branch. This is termed as self-financing the quantum of w
hich is determined by the federal government.
• Loans obtained by the authority with the special or general sanction of the Gove
rnment.
• Foreign aids and loans obtained from the IBRD, ADB and other International lendi
ng
Now in current situation Foreign Currency department plays vital role be
cause many countries and different financial institutions give loan and aid for
finish current energy crises. Some important role of foreign currency department
given below

7.2 Objective of Foreign currency department


Foreign currency department working only for the development in WAPDA. T
he projects which have made or in working process depended on the foreign loan a
nd aid. So this department plays back born role in WAPDA power generation. This
department also provide valuable profit to government of Pakistan. Foreign excha
nge transactions developed from the growth of WAPDA activity among the help of d
ifferent countries. As business relations grew, the importance of monitoring the
value of foreign currency and trading it in the market facilitated a need to es
tablish foreign exchange departments WAPDA.
7.3 Core working
7.3.1 PC 2
In pc 2 WAPDA makes feasibility report how much capacity of new project
for which WAPDA want to take loan.
7.3.2 PC 1
In pc 1 WAPDA start working on the project with the amount of

7.4.1 Why WAPDA take loan


WPADA is a working all areas in Pakistan and it is working on non profit
bases. So without improving its capacity it can not meet the demand of general
public. And also it is single power Generation Company Which provide Electricity
directly to people.
7.4.2 Reasons
There are some reasons for which WAPDA take loan
• Install new power plants
• Decrease short fall
• Meet electricity requirement in future
• No alternative power production
• Demand increase every year
So WPADA takes loan for meet the demand of electricity which increases day by da
y.
7.5 Foreign Currency
In which currency WPADA takes loan it return loan in same currency. Norm
ally WAPDA takes loan in dollar currency.
Loan is combination of Principle amount + Interest

7.6 Agreement
When WAPDA need loan it make agreement with money provider intuitions. T
his agreement includes following information like
• Rate of interest
• Place of payment
• Issue date
• Mode of payment
• loan return date
• Payment guarantee
• agreement signed
7.7 Foreign Loan
Foreign loan are those loan which is taken outside the boundary of count
ry. WPADA is a large organization and it is working on non profit bases so it is
very difficult for it to install new power plant which need billions of investm
ent and without improving its capacity it can not meet the demand of general pub
lic. So WPADA takes loan for meet the demand of electricity which increases day
by day.
7.8 Parties
These are three parties involve at the time of making agreement of takin
g loan. These parties are following
• Borrower WAPDA
• Guarantor Government or Commercial banks
• Lender Who provide loan
7.9 Types of Foreign Loan
There are two types of foreign loan
• Direct Loan
• Relending loan
7.10 Direct Loan
Direct loan WAPDA takes itself from commercial bank and other financial
institutions. Normally WAPDA itself give guarantee for loan but some time govern
ment can also give guarantee. WAPDA has responsibility to return loan to the loa
n provider.
7.11 Relending Loan
In relending loan government it self involve directly for providing loan
to WAPDA. Foreign country or financial intuition provide loan to government and
government reissue this loan to WAPDA. WAPDA receive loan indirectly. Governmen
t receive loan at low rate of interest like 2 or 3 percent but when government i
ssue this loan to WAPDA than government charge 15 percent rate of interest befor
e two years ago it is 17 percent but now due to finish power crises government r
educe it.
7.12 Rates
It is duty of WAPDA foreign currency department that fixed rate of loan
that it return according to KIBOR or LIBOR rate. If once rate id determine than
it can not be change till the project ended.
7.13 Loan provided Institution
Normally WAPDA takes loan for following financial intuition.
• World Bank
• Asian Development Bank
• IMF(International Monetary Fund)
• Kuwait fund
Some financial Institutions of France, United Kingdom, United State of America,
Sudia Arabia and Dubai
Currently loan Status

8.4 Short and wrong material
It has been noticed that some times material is short and wrong shipped
by the foreigner supplier and consignee consider this lapse as the liability of
the insurers. It may be kept in mind that the insurers are not responsible for s
hort and wrong packing of the material. Therefore the consignees must immediatel
y refer such cases to the suppliers and finalize with them directly. Such types
of deficiency required to be detected with in 8 days of the receipt of goods. Wh
en such reports are logged with the suppliers it is required to be done under th
e intimation to the insurance department, WAPDA, enabling them to lodge first in
formation report with the insurers. However where it is proved that loss is not
on suppliers account and a certificate to this effect is obtained from the suppl

in tern will lodge with the claims with the insurers on the basis of the first
information reports. This will only be practicable if the documents by the consi

nless the claim is decide by the insurance company and the reply of the foreign
suppliers regarding shortage in original is provided by the local agent. Where t
he surveyor has declared the loss due to the short packing the claim of short pa
cking does not lie against insurers and necessary steps may be taken for the rec
overy of the loss from the suppliers or recovered from the commission of his loc
al agent as the case may be.
8.5 Documentation
While analysis the cause of the delay in the acceptance of Marine claims
it has been noticed that claims are not drawn in acceptance with existing proce
dure are not supported with the essential documents. This is a very serious situ
ation as the acceptance or repudiation of the claims depends upon the supply
of following documents which should be furnished to the insurance department WAP
DA within 15 days after lodging the claim.
• Claim bill
• Performa invoice (for this time limit is 2 months)
• Survey report
• Original invoice
• Bill of lading
• Warehouse examination report
Estimate in case of repair. Three quotations of repairers may be atta
ched with the repair bill;
• Warehouse examination report and the survey report are the basic documents on wh
ich the claims are drawn. Claim bill should strictly be in accordance with the s
urvey reports as its acceptance depends on the remarks of the surveyors and rema
rks of the consignee in the warehouse examination report. Therefore while fillin
g up the warehouse examination report unwarranted remarks should not be given th
is may prejudice the claim. Similarly no statement should be made to the surveyo
r which may jeopardize the interest of WAPDA. In case the consignee consider tha
t the award given by the surveyor is not in accordance with the damages sustaine
d by the authority, it is their foremost duty to challenge the survey report wit
h facts and figures and substantiate their view point most judiciously and provi
de a copy to insurance department WAPDA, to enable them to take up the matter wi
th surveyor. But in no case the consignees should arrange the repair/replacement
in contradictions of the survey report until and unless the challenged survey r
eport have been got revised from surveyors in accordance with our genuine claims
.
• In case of repairs recommended by the surveyors the approval to carry out the re
pair may be obtained from the national insurance corporation, Lahore through ins
urance department, WAPDA, otherwise the claim will not be paid by the national i
nsurance corporation Lahore.
• It needs to be emphasized that timely submission of documents listed above is of
paramount importance for the settlement of claims and arrangement will be made
by the consignee to supply these documents for all new and pending claims.
• Consignees are requested to pay personal attention in the completion of new case
s so that claims may not return unsettled. If case which remain unsettled for mo
re than 3 months because of non supply of the Performa invoice and other essenti
al documents the responsibility will be that of consignees and the matter will b
e referred to the Authority.
8.6 Procedure for recovery of loss/damage of consignment
It has been observes that the marine insurance procedure circulate
d with this office No. SOM/M/GEN/79/7409 date: 01-07-1979 is the being follow in
letter and Spirit by the WAPDA Consignee causing un-due delay in lodging the cl
aim and ultimate loss to the Authority. For instance
• The loss is not reported within the stipulated period of 8 days and the insurers
have to charge the storage premium for the delayed period by way of deduction f
rom the claim as per terms of the insurance Policy.
• Clean receipts are given to the Carrier/Transporter by the consignee when the pa
ckages are in doubtful/damages condition thus the carriers escape their legal li
ability.
• The claim damages during transit are not lodged on the carrier through Chief Res
ident Representative Karachi in time. Thus the claim is accepted by the insurers
after deduction of share of the carrier.
• The claim bill rendered is not often supported with the Performa Invoice, carrie
r/Suppliers reply and other documents which results in-ordia=nate
• Delay in settlement of the claims.
• Shipping documents such as invoice, bill of lading and shop survey report and oc
ean freight are provided in installments. This further delays settlement of clai
m.
8.7 Settlements
In order to avoid loss to the authority and over-come the above situatio
n and for the quick settlement of the claim, the following steps may kindly be t
aken to safe guard the interest of the Authority:-
• The information of loss should be reported direct to the nearest office of Nati

WORK DONE BY ME
10.1 About Internship
I completed 6 week internship at WAPDA which is from 26.04.2010 to19.06
.2010 with break from 17.05.2010 to 30.05.2010. I hope that Internship experienc
e open doors for me of many opportunities because in this internship I learn a l
ot which give me help in my future. The employee of WAPDA is very corporative. T
he environment of the WAPDA is quite friendly. The staff is very efficient here
and deals the transactions of authority on daily basis by providing efficient an
d timely services. They want to change the current situation in country for the
progress of our mother land.
The internship give me a lot of knowledge and confidence in me. I sugges
t that other Numlians should do internship in WAPDA because it’s a large organizat
ion which work on non profit bases. Internship program is an important part to g
ive student an opportunity to have experience of practical field. Unless and unt
il the student experience the novelty of practical work, their knowledge of what
they study in theoretical courses remains incomplete. The most important point
is internship program is that the student should spend their time in a true mann
er and with the spirit to learn practical orientation of theoretical study of fr
amework.
I have learned in finance departments of WAPDA as under

10.3 HYDEL
10.3.1 Learning in HYDEL department
10.3.2 Measure the cost of HYDEL
The cost incure to produce the electricity measure in units and cost is
in rupees and per units.
This generation is measure in units and when combine calculate or measur
e use the term of million gaga watt .
10.3.3 Share and capacity of HYDEL throughout total generation
Before 10 years generation is 70% from HYDEL and 30% from thermal but now the 30
% from HYDEL and 70% from thermal. So the cost is very high because of more ther

Working Experience
Internship is one of the crucial and difficult decisions of the career o
f a student. The internship acts as a passage towards the achievement of future
job. It not only encourages the student to enter the social circle of practical
life but also motivates him or her towards implementation of the knowledge gaine
d from the studies. It enlightens the thinking pattern of the students’ mind and s
hows him or her small glimpse of the practical work environment. The student is
thus able to understand the working conditions and the implications present in t
he environment about which he or she is unaware. During the internship period a
student gets the chance to meet the highly skilled and professional people relat
ed to his area of interest as well as other people. This interaction gives him o
r her handful experience about the present systems being followed in the market.
He is able to learn certain key and fundamental functions that are neither to b
e found in any university nor in books.
The student who is under going the process of learning in any organizati
on gets the opportunity to observe the functioning of that organization. He is a
ble to see how do organizational goals are achieved with the contribution of a l
arge number of employees working collectively. It is also to see how the tasks,
duties are and responsibilities have been distributed to various people and how
their individual work is reconciled and presented to the management for decision
making and to the general public as one unit.

11.1 Learning / Achievements


In period of internship I got the chance to learn a great deal about the
various procedures and regulations observed at WAPDA. Some were good and some n
eed to be improved in my opinion.
11.2 Positive Points
• Government support
• Vertically integrated utility
• Restructuring of Pakistan power sector
• The internee must not take the task he cannot perform in the efficient manner be
cause that will bring a bad name on his part.
• I got to chance to observe how employees behave in organizational culture.
• The process of segmentation of large tasks in big organizations helps the employ
ees perform the tasks in a better and effective manner.
• It is also important for the internees to not to be over efficient because the p
eople already working in the organization are more skilled and professional than
the internee.
• It is essential that the employee must be honest with his work and duties that w
ere assigned to him because honesty will lead that organization to glory.
• The top priority for the organization is the fulfillment of its goals so that it
can maintain the position in the market.
• By working in large organizations I got the chance to learn the professional nor
ms and behaviors observed in WAPDA.

arity with the practical environment.

nation with other staff members of the department.

staff expect the internee to do so as they avoid repeating the instructions.
• Senior staff members are mentors so the internee must follow their instructions
and always welcome their advice.

/her and not poke his nose in others affairs.
• The behavior and attitude of senior staff with internee good and should be appra
ised.

• In my observation every staff member provides me guideline to better understand
the organization culture and Policies.

11.3 Negatives Points


When the internee goes to the practical work place from the university a
rea, he seeks proper guidelines from the senior staff that is not provided to th
em.
• Limited Geographic Market
• Reduction In Net Electrical Output And Profit Margin
• Mangla Dam Issue
• Bad policies
• In an office environment, there is a personal bias among employees and that goes
on for years.
• There is communication gap among the employees of the organization.
• There is lack of positive synergy among the employees that prevents them to work
collectively and achieve excellence.
• Employees of the organization keep their personal goals ahead of the organizatio
nal goals.
• The employees tend to protect each other when some one breaks the organizational
rules.
• Most of the employees of organization are not technology oriented and they avoid
using latest technology.

SWOT
Strengths
• Rising Electricity Demand
• Development Projects
• WAPDA has monopoly in market
• Company has huge amount of assets
• Security Systems
• Transportation systems
• WAPDA provide large number of facilities, allowances and benefits to its employe
es and these are sources of motivation for workers.
• Most are employees are satisfied with there jobs because work assigned to them i
s interesting and work load is low as compared to other business organizations e
ach employee is assigned with the work he can perform with perfection.
• WAPDA do time to monitoring over its wings to increase efficiency.
• Pensions systems

Weakness
• Political Instability
• Scarcity Of Resources
• All though there are competent and high qualified workers but a large part of em
ployees are incompetent and low qualified as compared to their job specification
matriculates and intermediate are working at the job specification of MBAs or o
ther master degree holders. That’s why qualitative performance of these workers is
limited.
• In spite of presence of technology many jobs are done manually.
• The controls are heads or not effected.
• Political powers in recruiting due to which some incompetent candidates were rec
ruited.
• Over employees and low productivity.
• Communication systems among departments are not sufficient.
• Lack of loyalty.
• Consistency and regulatory in staff.
• Dependency on the power production and distribution companies.
• Increase In demand day by day -

Opportunities

.
• WAPDA has opportunity rises dams height Manglla and remove mud in tarbilla dam w
hich can increase Electricity generation capacity.
• Gomal zam dam project

RECOMMENDATIONS
13.0 Recommendations
Here are some weak areas which I perceived during my internship in WAPDA
and some recommendations are given as under:
13.1 Investment
Invest in the Kala Baag Dam and Basha Dam Making.
13.2 Line losses
Line losses should be decreased to 3% currently it is 20% but it should
more decrease as soon as possible back its increase expenses of WAPDA.
13.3 Electricity saver appliances
Electricity saver appliances should be introduced in the country

13.4 Media Campaign


A strong media campaign should also be introduced on TV. Channels to cre
ate awareness in the society to decrease energy consumption.
13.5 Privatization
WAPDA should not privatize all its companies. In my opinion if these com
panies will work under one authority it will be better for economy as well as fo
r WAPDA too.
13.6 Training and development.
It is correct that “if you are not going forwards, you are in fact going b
ackwards”. Current employees have skill deficiencies. Increased efficiency results
in financial gain. It is very true “if you think training is expensive try ignora
nce”. Attitude, skills, and knowledge can be enhanced through effective training.
The current status of training in WAPDA requires improvement & changes. The foll
owing subjects may also be included by Staff College in their courses as under:
Investment and portfolio management, corporate finance, MIS (accounting
software) Leadership, Time management, Change management, Organizational behavio
r, Quality management, Motivation, Corporate culture.

13.7 Long term debts


This increase in Long-Term debts is not good indication for WAPDA becaus
e due to this increase WAPDA has to pay more interest as shown in profit and los
s Account of Power Wing of WAPDA. So, WAPDA should reduce these long term debts,
if it wants to earn more profit.
13.8 Financial charges
Increase in financial charges has resulted in the reduction of profit of
WAPDA. In order to earn more profit WAPDA should control these financial Charge
s rather should reduce these financial charges
13.9 Investment in other business
WAPDA should also invest in some profitable business like share of diffe
rent companies
except the sale of electricity.
13.10 Free in making decision
WAPDA is an independent organization so it should be independent in deci
sion making. If the WAPDA is free in decision making, it will reduce its extra c
ost such as loyalty cost, IPPC payments, etc.
13.11 Fair payment of electricity bills
It is well known that big industrialist and land lords especially of out
tribal areas do not make fair payment of electricity bills. Due to this unfair
payment WAPDA as well as economy suffers. So these industrialists and landlords
should be completed by the state to pays their electricity bill fairly.
13.12 Contracts with IPP
The contracts of IPP most be eliminated as soon as possible because they
sell electricity to WAPDA sell electricity to consumers at considerable low rat
es, due to which not only WAPDA but economy also suffers.
13.13 Blockade of promotions.
Employee’s motivation and productivity increases with opportunities to gro
w. It develops a strong psychological contract and makes an employee competitive
from opportunities within organization. In WAPDA, at this stage there is severe
blockade of promotions due to which there is resentment and distrust amongst ca
dres. Inefficiency is another effect of delayed promotions apart from brain drai
n. So promotion should be in time as per criteria.

13.14 Job rotation


Most of employees are stick to one set only, which result that they beco
me master of one particular job and lose their grip on other operations. So all
employees should have regular job rotation.
13.15 Courses
Refresher Courses for the staff are most important in any international
organization foreign experts can also be called for this purpose
13.16 Working Environment
Working environment, equipment, furniture and staff dressing should be a
ccording to the modern style.
13.17 Generation of electricity from coal
Generation of electricity from coal is another source of generation of e
lectricity. Generation from coal is cheaper from hydel.
13.18 Control of line losses
The line losses can be controlled by regular check on lines, meters of c
ommercial as well as for industrial sector. It will reduce WAPDA cost and will
increase its profit.
Recommendation for the NUML:
While studying in NUML, I have analyzed some problem. Keeping in views t
hose problems following are my recommendations:
• The institute also should arrange the field tours for its students to enhance an
d give the market exposures.
• The management of this prestigious institute should introduce the training progr
ams among the departments i.e. IAS & IBA same as the UMT does with the IBA for t
he promotion of students.
• This institute also should organize the seminars with the cooperation of industr
ies like with Chamber of Commerce and Supply Chain Group of Pakistan that assis
t its Students and the market will know its students.

CONCLUSION
After completing my internship in WAPDA, I have concluded the company as under:
• Rise in the oil prices pushing electricity tariff very high. As a result, manufa
cturing costs and inflation are at the rising trend, export competitiveness is e
roded and the pressure on the balance of payments is increasing. These factors a
dversely affect the present growth trajectory of the economy.
• AL though there are competent and high qualified workers but a large part of emp
loyees are incompetent and low qualified as compared to their job specification
matriculates and intermediate are working at the job specification of MBAs or ot
her master degree holders. That’s why qualitative performance of these workers is
limited.
• The country also needs to look at other alternative sources of energy.
• In Pakistan the current energy crisis stems from the decline in hydro sources
of energy and over reliance on the expansive source of electricity. Presently,
oil-based thermal plants accounts for 68% of generating capacity,
hydroelectric plants for 30% and nuclear plants for only 2% .This has led to a h
uge generation costs, which in turn adversely affect the
economy over the past eight years.
• WAPDA has monopoly in market.
• The government needs to focus on the proper development of human resources to ca
ter to the energy sector.
• WAPDA had friendly atmosphere with its employees.
• WAPDA has the largest operational infrastructure and this type of structure exis
t only in 7 to 8 countries in the world.
• WAPDA has large number of departments and each department has different section
but not proper coordination between them but not proper coordination between the
m.
• Every task is accomplished after long process, because each file moves verticall
y, goes from top to bottom and then bottom to top.
• Company’s staff is hard working and well trained comparatively.
• The process of maintaining and developing transmission lines is very slow.
• Financial policies are well placed in books but not being practiced fully.
• Company is required to acquire the latest technologies to install in grid statio
ns to prevent from line losses and fire in case of over loading on transmission
lines.
• To maintain a useful survival in the face of global and local challenges WAPDA n
eeds to adopt professionalism and develop aggressive policy to retain a highly m
otivated work force by offering attractive financial and career development ince
ntives.
• The long execution times, poor project management skills and consistent delays a
nd high transmission and distribution losses have thrown the country into a cris
is. If timely action is not taken, this will seriously.
• The government needs to take a holistic approach towards the sector in order to
cut the power deficit.
