Recently, the 2nd 330MW coal-fired power station in the 2nd district of Pakistan's Thar coal-fired power station, constructed by the Hubei Engineering Company of China Power Construction Group, was successfully connected to the grid for the first time. The status and parameters of the units are normal and the operation is stable.

Since the trial operation of the project component department, the project department of Hubei Engineering Company of China Power Construction Group has overcome many difficulties and carried forward the spirit of hard work and hard work of the electric construction railway army, and cooperated with each other to complete boiler ignition, blow pipe and steam turbine rush. After all the nodes, the unit was successfully completed for the first time. The smooth integration of the No. 2 unit also marks the completion of the 168-hour full-load test run, achieving the ultimate goal of production in the first half of the year.

It is reported that the Pakistan Taal Power Station project is the first coal-electricity integrated project of the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor. It is also one of the priority development projects for China to implement the “Belt and Road Initiative” and promote the construction of the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor. The smooth implementation of the project has effectively promoted the development of Pakistan's national energy and helped to strengthen Pakistan's ability to rely on its own energy, which will greatly increase the well-being of local people. The successful commissioning of the power station will greatly alleviate the current shortage of electricity in Pakistan and will have a profound impact on Pakistan's national infrastructure.

巴基斯坦塔尔燃煤电站首次并网一次成功
人民网（来源：人民网-国际频道） 04-19 17:33

人民网讯 日前，由中国电建集团湖北工程公司施工建设的巴基斯坦塔尔煤田II区2×330兆瓦燃煤电站2号机组首次并网一次成功，机组各系统的状态、参数正常，运行平稳。

自该项目机组分部试运行以来，中国电建集团湖北工程公司项目部克服重重困难，发扬电建铁军不畏困难、顽强拼搏的精神，上下通力合作，相继完成锅炉点火、吹管、汽轮机冲转等各项节点，最终圆满实现机组首次并网。此次2号机组的顺利并网也标志着机组即将进入168小时满负荷试运行，实现了上半年投产的最终目标。

据悉，巴基斯坦塔尔电站项目是中巴经济走廊的首个煤电一体项目，也是我国实施“一带一路”倡议、推进中巴经济走廊建设的优先发展项目之一。该项目的顺利实施，有力地促进了巴基斯坦国家本地能源的开发，有助于增强巴基斯坦依靠自有能源的能力，将极大的增加当地人民的福祉。该电站的顺利投产将大大缓解巴基斯坦电力短缺现状，对巴基斯坦国家基础建设将产生深远影响。(陶臻标)

is TharCoal part of CPEC?

 

[Imran Khan]

great news congs thanks china

 

[war&peace]

Good so now 330 MW have been added into the grid. Excellent.

 

[Comrade]

Chinese doing a great job, long live Pak China friendship.....
I have seen they are working on many hydal projects as well.

great news now we are using our own resources instead of importing coal

 

[Adam WANG SHANGHAI MEGA]

This is a coal-fired power plant. Coal needs to be used to generate electricity, but the electricity itself is produced, and the price is definitely cheap.

Pakistan's coal resources are distributed in Sindh, Balochistan, Punjab and the North West Frontier Province. The quality ranges from lignite to sub-bituminous. The calorific value ranges from 5000-13000 British pounds per pound. (BTU/Lb). In the Thar region of southern Sindh, there is one of the world's largest quality brown coal mines with reserves estimated at 175 billion tons. The coal content of the Tar coalfield is 1-2%, the ash content is 6-7%, the fixed carbon content is 16-17%, and the average calorific value is 5774 British thermal units/lb. In addition to Taal coal, coal in other regions has high sulfur and ash content, so it is mostly used in brick kilns and through "liquefied combustion technology" for power generation. Because there is no moderately volatile bituminous coal, local coal is not suitable for coke production. In 1980, a coal washing plant was built in the Sharigh coal mine in Balochistan. Because the washed coal was too sulphur to be accepted by the Pakistani steel mill (Bagang), the coal washing plant was subsequently shut down. At present, 80% of the coal mines in Pakistan are operated by small coal mines. More than 5,000 small coal mines employ about 300,000 miners. The coal output is about 4.5 million tons per year, 90% of which is used for brick kiln brick making. In the past 50 years, the share of coal in Pakistan's energy consumption has fallen sharply, from 68% in 1948 to 35% in 1958, and only 5% in 2002. According to the statistics of the World Coal Association (WCI) in December 2002, the proportion of coal power in power generation is 52% in the US, 53% in Germany, 58% in the UK, 77% in Australia, 77% in India, 78% in China, and 88% in South Africa. Poland is 96%, the world average is 39%, while Pakistan is less than 1%. Due to cheap, convenient and government-subsidized other energy competition, the use of coal in the Pakistani industry has been less and less in the past many years, and many chemical plants and cement plants switched to natural gas or fuel in the 1960s. However, given the current energy situation and the high cost of imported oil, people's eyes have turned to coal. 1. Coal reserves and distribution According to estimates by the Geological Survey of Pakistan-GSP, Pakistan's coal reserves are around 185 billion tons, of which 184 billion tons are in Sindh (Talla 77.5 billion tons, Lakra Lakhra 1.3 billion tons) , Songda-Satta Sonda-Thatta 3.7 billion tons, etc.), another 217 million tons in Balochistan Province, 235 million tons in Punjab Province, and 90 million tons in the North West Frontier Province. Pakistan's local coals range from lignite to sub-bituminous coal. The difference in physical properties and chemical content, combined with higher sulfur and ash content, makes it difficult to adapt to the quality requirements of industrial users.
巴基斯坦煤炭资源在信德省、裨路支省、旁遮普省和西北边境省均有分布，品质从褐煤（lignite）到次烟煤(sub-bituminous)都有，热值从每磅5000-13000英制热量单位（BTU/Lb）。在信德省南部的塔尔（Thar）地区，有世界最大的优质褐煤矿之一，储量估计在1750亿吨。塔尔煤田硫含量在1-2%，灰成份6-7%，固定碳含量16-17%，平均热值5774英制热量单位/磅。除了塔尔煤之外，其他地区的煤含硫和灰的成分高，因此多用于砖窑和通过“液化燃烧技术”用于发电。因为没有中度挥发性烟煤，巴当地煤炭不适于生产焦炭。1980年曾在裨路支省的沙瑞格(Sharigh)煤矿建了一家洗煤厂，因为洗过的煤含硫量过高，不能为巴基斯坦钢厂（巴钢）接受，该洗煤厂随后关闭。　　巴基斯坦目前80%的煤矿由小煤矿主经营，5000多个小煤矿雇有大约30万矿工，煤炭产量每年约450万吨，其中90%用于砖窑制砖。在过去50年中，煤炭在巴基斯坦能源消耗量中所占比例大幅下降，从1948年的68%到1958年的35%，到2002年时只有5%。按照世界煤炭协会（WCI）2002年12月的统计，在发电中煤电的比例美国为52%，德国53%，英国58%，澳大利亚77%，印度77%，中国78%，南非88%，波兰96%，世界平均39%，而巴基斯坦只有不到1%。由于便宜、方便和政府补贴的其他能源的竞争，煤炭在巴工业中的使用在过去许多年中越来越少，许多化工厂和水泥厂在上世纪60年代时转用天然气或者燃油。但鉴于目前的能源形势和进口石油高昂的成本，人们的目光又开始转向煤炭。　　1．煤炭储量和分布　　根据巴基斯坦地质勘测中心（Geological Survey of Pakistan-GSP）的估算，巴基斯坦的煤炭储量在1850亿吨左右，其中1840亿吨在信德省（塔尔1755亿吨，拉克拉Lakhra 13亿吨，宋达-萨塔Sonda-Thatta 37亿吨等），另外裨路支省2.17亿吨，旁遮普省2.35亿吨，西北边境省9千万吨。巴基斯坦当地煤炭从褐煤到次烟煤都有，物理特性和化学含量差别较大，加之较高的硫和灰含量，较难适应工业用户对品质的要求。
