Description | The project?s impact will be an enhanced energy supply in Pakistan. The outcome will be a more efficient energy mix through diversification from expensive HFO to less expensive coal. The project will (i) increase the capacity of the Jamshoro TPS by installing a 600-MW (net) supercritical coal-fired unit, using an 80/20 blend of imported sub-bituminous coal and domestic lignite when available; (ii) provide 5 years of operation and maintenance (O&M) support; (iii) improve compliance with international and national environmental standards by installing emission control devices for the existing units and remediating the site; (iv) enhance the capacity of GENCO Holding Company Limited (GHCL) and Jamshoro Power Company Limited (JPCL) by providing financial, technical, and operational training; and (v) promote education on coal-fired plant operation by providing on-the-job training, and integrating such training into technical school curriculum. The infrastructure developed will also support government?s plan to have an additional 600-MW unit at the same site. |
