General- WAPDA/PEPCOStructure & Roles

Pakistan
Water and Power Development Authority
(WAPDA)
WAPDA was formed in 1958. The major
responsibilities of WAPDA were;
Meet electricity demand of the country (except area of
Karachi) by installing new power plants, transmission lines
and distribution system.
Develop hydro storage project ( dams) for meeting
irrigation and demand of the country and install hydro
plants at dams locations.
WAPDA consisted of two segments :
Power Wing: For meeting electricity demand and
responsible for
generation, transmission and distribution.
Water Wing : For developing hydro projects for irrigation
requirements.

PAKISTAN POWER SECTOR: BACKGROUND

1. The GoP approved Pakistan Power Sector Strategic Plan for
restructuring and reform in 1992, according to which, the power wing of
WAPDA was structured into four (4) Generation Companies (GENCOs),
one (1) National Transmission and Dispatch Company (NTDC) and nine
(9) Distribution Companies (DISCOs).
2. PEPCO was established in 1998 as an independent entity with mandate
to restructure Pakistan Power Sector, corporatise & commercialize the
restructured entities, and to bring about reforms thru introduction of
competition, enhancement of efficiencies and best financial and prudent
utility practices.
3. PEPCO initiated the restructuring and reform process in 1998 with
limited initial success. The reform process was considerably slowed
down beyond 2001 when PEPCO was reduced to a Division in WAPDA.
4. The GoP reactivated the mandate of PEPCO in October 2007 to bridge6
the increasing demand supply gap and to reduce the resulting load
6
shedding in the country.

Bottle Necks
At present no major system
constraints
Intermittent over-loading of
transformers at some places being
addressed by addition of following
transformation capacities up to
2014-15
500/220 KV
220/132 KV

11400 MVA
19330 MVA

 For huge future development the

bottle necks would be
1. Availability of finance
2. Responsibility of dispersal from power plants
& uncertainty of generation project.

Capacity of
1. Planning department
2. Local Consultant
3. Local contractors

Inconducive Law & order situation for

foreign consultants and contractors.
