 BACKGROUND

The country is experiencing energy shortfall these days.

Besides that, cost of energy is yet another challenge, the
country is faced with. It is there utmost important to
take all the possible measures to enhance the generation
capability of the system by harnessing each and every
Megawatt by focusing on the cost effective energy
solutions. The Hydropower potential in Pakistan is a
promising source of Power and is also cost effective. In
this context, we are giving presentation regarding scope
of Hydel Energy in Pakistan.

 IMPACTS ON ECONOMY OF USING FURNACE OIL

 Presently, around 30% of the country’s installed generation capacity

is based on furnace oil

 It is high time now that the country should review its energy mix and
start making genuine progress for utilizing alternate energy sources
like wind and solar and for enhancing the share of hydel, as
continued high reliance on furnace oil is becoming more and more
expensive.
 For oil importing countries like Pakistan the impact of irregular and
unexpected price hikes quickly seeps into the domestic economy,
threatening the already existing macroeconomic imbalances
 IMPACTS ON ECONOMY OF USING FURNACE OIL

 Oil price hikes are aggravating the energy shortage in Pakistan which
is now feeding into increased general prices, transportation cost,
slowing down agricultural and industrial productivity and aggravated
water shortages for the rural economy.

 This is having an enormous financial impact on our competitiveness

in the external sector, creating record trade and BOP gaps and
depleting our foreign exchange reserves.

 In order to move towards attaining fiscal stability and sustainability,

the need for tilting away from heavy reliance on oil imports towards
alternative energy and fuel options now becomes increasingly
important.
