CPEC by Moonlight

[Mangus Ortus Novem]

..



Firstly, many thanks to OP for an honest attempt to understanding CPEC. Well done really.

But if Pak Friends think that CPEC is just confined to Pak economically or geographically..then I am sorry to say that none of you understand that the true signficance of CPEC to Sino-Pak Axis.

CPEC is a framework for entire Afro-Asian Ocean Region and beyond...all the way to South America and back again...

As I have said many times before Pak is a South West Asian Regional Power of Global Consequence...

Ever wondered why those hiinndianz hate you and CPEC so much???

There is a Greatest Game at play here.. not just some €250+ Blns investments...

The Chinese mind thinks in centuries... one wishes Pak friends can percieve decades ahead.

Nevertheless, all the very best with eliminating foreign sponsored terror and become at leat 3 Trillion economy in a couple decades...then we are talking.

All else is just intellectualism and waste of life force..

Bro add shipping industries as well. It will be backbone of CPEC and shipping traffic of Pakistan will increase like a blast. It will reduce Indian sea route revenue and it is put load in Indian economy and importance on Indian sea will reduce

Energy

Fast forward in 2017 and the total installed capacity is around 27,000MW with operational capacity of 18,000MW leading to claimed reduction of load shedding from 18 hours a day to less than 4 hours a day in most parts of the country.

At first sight we realise that Pakistan’s energy requirement of 18,000MW in 2007 is similar to the energy requirement in 2017 however as per the report of Research and Advocacy for the Advancement of Allied Reforms (RAFTAAR), There is more electricity being generated by imported generators than the combined electricity being produced in the national grid (17,000MW).

.

what do you mean by the terms 'installed capacity' and 'operational capacity'. You are way off in your comparison of electricity generation between 2007 and 2017. Secondly I don't have exact figures but electricity generated by independent sources can't be more than 10% of national generation.
1 MW of installed or name plate capacity(power) in theory can generate 720,000 kWh(energy) in a month but running a power plant 24*7 is practically not possible.
The installed capacity according to official documents in Dec, 2016 is 23,269.84 MW and in terms of units 4,171,083,667 KWh were generated in the month of Dec last year. This gives us the efficiency of about 24.9% which means the installed capacity was operational for roughly 6 hours a day for 30 days.

You're welcome. A good day.

Installed capacity = maximum potential of every plant

Operational = many plants in Pakistan remains shut for maintenance, high running costs, lack of fuel supply and inability of transmission lines to hold more capacity etc. About 8000-10,000mw of electricity can technically be added overnight but the cost of generation is so huge that they mostly remain shut

I think instead of 'Suhaag raat ki daastaan' or 'besharam larkiyaan click karen' Pakistani masses should be informed about CPEC using the info in small tid bits and posters over social media. There is not a lot of cohesive information available online for CPEC. The propaganda only thrives in information gaps. We let idiots hijack the positive happenings in Pakistan as no one bothers to educate a common man. Kalabagh bring a prime example.

There is no magic wand which would do it overnight. Different power sources have different operational limitations for example a PV solar system can generate electricity while the sun is shinning likewise fossil fuel based plants can run for 8-10 hrs a day, a nuclear power plant can produce electricity for days but requires more time to put to operation. Similarly hydro power plants can generate electricity for 2-3 hours a day.

edit: installed capacity is the maximum power producing capability of a system. Running a system at full capacity 24*7 would drastically reduce the life of that system provided the possibility.

that's right, no disagreement on that

The hydro power capacity of Tarbela dam reduces from 3500mw to only 1000MW during winter. There is nothing we can do about it. Many plants are shut for maintenance or the machinery goes faulty so nobody can achieve maximum generation capacity anyway

Indeed Pakistan's strategic location cannot be ignored.
The ability to bypass the strait of Malacca is a huge advantage.
