I. PROJECT DESCRIPTION

1. Acute power shortages of up to 20 hours per day have crippled economic growth and
caused social unrest in Pakistan.1 The country needs affordable, dependable base-load power
to alleviate the shortage. Coal-fired power plants provide secure, inexpensive base-load power
in many countries. The project introduces supercritical coal-fired power generation, which is the
best available technology for Pakistan. The environmental impact of this technology would be
less than that of the existing heavy fuel oil (HFO)-fired power plants, and the more commonly
used subcritical coal-fired power generation technology. The project, which is the first stage of a
multi-stage government plan for this site,2 has three components: (i) construction and 5 years of
operational support for a 600-megawatt (MW) (net)/660-MW (nominal) supercritical coal-fired
unit, with state-of-the-art emission control devices at the Jamshoro Thermal Power Station
(TPS) in Sindh province; (ii) capacity development for coal-fired plant operations; and (iii)
environmental remediation of the existing power generation units and site.

II. THE PROJECT

A. Rationale

2. Pakistan is exploring all options to reduce power load shedding and power cost but has
few medium-term options for affordable, dependable power supply. Natural gas was the main
fuel used for Pakistan’s base-load power plants,3 but the country’s dwindling reserves of gas
have resulted in increasing use of high-cost imported fuel oil for power generation. This has
increased power generation costs and exacerbated the existing financial shortfall, both within
the sector and the national economy. Compared to existing, inefficient HFO-fired plants, the
higher efficiency supercritical generation units and diversification away from imported fuel oil will
enable Pakistan to increase its reliable supply of electricity and lower both costs and
greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions.4

3. Energy crisis. Pakistan’s energy crisis depresses its economic performance and fuels
social instability. Power shortages equaled about one-third of total demand (4,000–5,000 MW)
during most of fiscal year (FY) 2012.5 Increasing, unpredictable load shedding is estimated to
constrain annual gross domestic product (GDP) growth by at least two percentage points.
Small- and medium-sized enterprises that employ the largest number of people, but cannot
afford back-up electricity generators and fuel, experience the largest impact. GDP growth has
averaged 3% since 2007, while GDP growth of 7% is required to generate enough employment
to absorb new labor market entrants. Poverty reduction and provision of basic necessities to the
poor are immediate challenges for Pakistan. Low economic growth creates an environment for
recruitment by society’s radical elements. The government introduced, as a priority, the new

2
The government plans additional 600-MW supercritical coal-fired unit and conversion of existing units to
coal.
3
Gas-fired power generation overtook hydropower in 1996 as the main power source. The share of gas
in the thermal generation fuel mix has fallen from 56% (2006) to 44% (2011), while HFO increased from
42% to 54%.
4
The existing units at Jamshoro TPS use HFO and emit 930 grams of carbon dioxide (CO 2) per kilowatt-
hour (kWh). The project would emit 750 grams of CO2 per kWh and a subcritical unit 850 grams of CO2
per kWh. Backup generators used to reduce power shortages are substantially less efficient and emit
higher volume of CO2.

National Power Policy to tackle these issues. PRs480 billion (about $4.5 billion) was paid to fuel
companies and independent power producers to clear payment arrears. The government is
pursuing gas and power tariff rationalization and energy efficiency measures such as
conservation, transmission and distribution loss reduction, and rehabilitation of power plants.6

4. High-power generation cost. Pakistan has 23,538 MW of installed power generation


capacity and 14,000 MW of available capacity on average. Even for the available capacity,
HFO-fired power plants are not fully utilized because of a shortage of funds for fuel. The
increase in HFO-fired power generation (high production cost) is the major reason the cost-
recovery tariff (average tariff) has continuously increased.7 The government has raised the base
tariff by 106% from February 2008 to June 2013, despite this subsidy has increased to PRs5.79
per kilowatt-hour (kWh).8 This puts enormous pressure on the public finances and the country’s
balance of payments. For fiscal and economic sustainability, the government must lower
electricity generation costs and increase supply to reduce adverse impact from power
shortages.

5. Lowering the generation cost. The government aims to increase coal-based power
generation while decreasing expensive HFO generation. This will require converting existing
HFO generation units and constructing new plants.9 The imported HFO costs several times
more than domestic or imported coal, and has higher sulfur content.10 Electricity generated from
coal, through medium-term fuel supply contracts, will also help stabilize the power price. The
National Power Policy includes plans to diversify the energy mix.

6. Renewable and gas-based generation. Improving energy security and affordability, the
government is pursuing large hydropower, gas, and other projects using domestic resources.
Pakistan has a low carbon footprint because of the large amount of hydropower and natural
gas-based power generation. However, hydropower’s contribution to total generation has
declined,11 and accounted for just 32% of power generated in 2012.12 Only 6,716 MW of a
potential of over 40,000 MW of hydropower has been tapped, making large hydropower plants
the ideal solution. Although large hydropower is the least cost solution, the high capital cost, the
long implementation period, and complex safeguard issues mean this is a long-term option.
Small and medium sized run-of-the-river hydropower plants have shorter construction periods

Fund (IMF). IMF. 2013. Pakistan: 2013 Article IV Consultation and Request for an Extended
Arrangement Under the Extended Fund Facility. Washington D.C.
7
HFO-fired power accounts for 34% of the energy mix; at PRs15.94 per kWh, it makes up 77% of total
generation costs. In comparison, the hydropower cost was PRs0.16 per kWh, and gas PRs4.24 per
kWh (footnote 5). The cost-recovery tariff has risen from PRs5.5 per kWh in 2008 to PRs14.51 per kWh
in 2013.
8
The subsidies vary monthly according to the consumer mix, load factor, and whether a periodic fuel
price adjustment was applied during the period. The average tariff increased from PRs4.26 per kWh to
PRs8.81 per kWh in May 2012, and further to PRs 11.11 per kWh in August 2013.
9
Emissions for conversion from HFO to gas fired plants would vary according to the state of the existing
equipment. For the Jamshoro TPS oil-fired units, after conversion the emissions would increase to
1,172 grams of CO2 per kWh using imported sub-bituminus coal.
10
Fuel cost savings between a new HFO fired power generation plant and the project would be $535
million annually.
11
Hydropower’s share declined as follows: 72% (1980), 54% (1990), 35% (2000), 32% (2012).

but have seasonal and daily output variation which makes them unsuitable for base-load.13
Domestic gas-fired generation will decline from the current 26% with the depletion of existing
gas fields, and competing demand from industry, transport, and retail customers unless
domestic gas supplies are increased.14 The abundant wind and solar resources are being
developed, but their outputs are variable and would not meet the base-load requirements.

7. Power generation mix. Oil-fired power generation is expensive, and used for less than
5% of world generation. To be competitive economically, Pakistan cannot afford continued
reliance on expensive imported oil for 34% of power generation. Pakistan has one of the lowest
carbon emissions, 19% of the world’s average.15 Coal reserves in Pakistan may generate
10,000 MW of power for 350 years. Globally, coal-based power plants generate 40% of power,16
but account for just 0.07% of generation in Pakistan.17

8. ADB interventions. ADB is engaged in the energy sector through its four multitranche
financing facilities and private sector investments, which fund energy efficiency, transmission,
distribution, and renewable energy projects including eight hydropower and two wind power
projects.18 As the sector’s largest donor, ADB conducts policy dialogue on reforms, planning, and
provides sector assessments to the International Monetary Fund. Ongoing reforms follow the
recommendations of the Friends of Democratic Pakistan Energy Sector Task Force, which ADB
co-chaired with the government. The report addresses diversification of existing fuel sources.19

B. Impact and Outcome

9. 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.

C. Outputs

10. The project will (i) increase 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,20 and provide 5 years of operation and maintenance (O&M) support; (ii)
ensure compliance with the national environmental standards (install emission control devices

13
Summer and winter output varies by around 3,000 MW. The government has spent $20 million for the
feasibility study of 4,500MW Diamer Basha Dam. The cost is estimated at $12 billion and construction
period of 10 years. Ranking of priority projects and sector roadmap are set out in Friends of Democratic

V. COSTS AND FINANCING

24. The Project costs consist of:

(i) EPC Contract for the design, supply, installation, testing and commissioning
of one supercritical unit at Jamshoro TPS.

Two other ICB contracts for the site remediation and installation of FGD for
existing units and one NCB contract for site preparation.
15

These will be under JPCL’s responsibility. They are financed out of the OCR
loan proceeds which are relent by the Government to JPCL in accordance
with the Subsidiary Financing Agreement (SFA).

Project Implementation Consultants (PIC) Services. The project


implementation and management will be assisted by a team of PIC. The
environmental monitoring will also be undertaken by PIC and included in its
contract. An external monitoring agency will also be recruited by GHCL and
JPCL to carry out monitoring implementation and validation of the different
components of EMP and submit an independent monitoring and appraisal
report to the PMU, GHCL.

This will be under JPCL’s responsibility and recruited with GHCL’s


assistance. It is financed out of the ADF loan proceeds which are relent by
the Government to JPCL in accordance with the SFA. GHCL and JPCL will
provide necessary office space and office equipment as its share of the
project cost.

(ii) Capacity Development Component. The capacity development component


will be financed out of the ADF loan proceeds which are relent by the
Government to JPCL in accordance with the SFA.

(iii) Land Acquisition and Resettlement. This will be financed by JPCL as


government contribution.

(iv) Taxes and duties. Taxes and duties will be covered under
Government/counterpart contribution, or exempted, as their share of the
project cost.

(v) Financial charges. Interests during implementation and commitment charges


will be capitalized in to the loan.

(vi) Operations and Management Escrow Account. An escrow account in a


bank acceptable to ADB and the EPC contractor will be set up by JPCL
before commissioning and will contain one-year estimated operation and
maintenance cost for the following year for the duration of the operations and
maintenance contract. Should there still be a short-fall after exhausting the
escrow account, OCR Loan 2 may be utilized to pay part or whole of the
invoices from the EPC contractor if the short-fall is caused by non-
performance by regulatory or other government entities despite the best
efforts of JPCL.

VI. FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT

A. Financial Management Assessment

26. The financial management of JPCL is generally satisfactory especially on the accounting
policies and procedures and financial reporting which are in line with International Financial
Reporting Standards (IFRS) and of credible quality as the audit reports have been regularly
audited and audit opinion has been unqualified. Financial management of JPCL was carried out
using the ADB Financial Management Questionnaire (FMAQ). However, JPCL has not been
able to operate independently and commercially as its Board of Directors has ceased
functioning since 2010 even though it is a corporate entity. There is serious corporate
governance issue which needs to be addressed promptly. This will be addressed through the
Rehabilitation Plan which will be carried out according to the financial performance milestones.
JPCL’s organizational structure will be reviewed and adjusted in order to establish
accountability. Financial and management reporting will be automated with the introduction of
the Silicon Alley Group Enterprise Resource Planning (SAG ERP) system.
28

27. JPCL has accumulated a significant amount of losses which has resulted in negative
cash position and net asset value. JPCL’s revenue streams and cash flows are driven by tariffs
collected by DISCOs and transferred through the NTDC to the GENCOs. The prime collectors
of funds into the systems, the DISCOs, have been also facing with severe constraints such as a
high level of bad debts, and outstanding from GOP for subsidies which mean that the entire
system is cash-short at any given point in time. The quantum and timing of the cash inflow for
energy supplied to NTDC dictates the manner in which payments are made, the most significant
being the payments to the suppliers of fuel. As a result the JPCL is essentially financed by fuel
creditors, which is not a satisfactory situation. In addition, rapidly increasing losses, primarily
due to using the under cost recovery tariff and operating under optimal efficiency, have resulted
in a negative equity base which means that the GENCOs are facing severe liquidity risk. JPCL
requires financial rehabilitation to restore stable operating income, ensure sufficient cash flow,
and reduce, if not eliminate, accumulated losses to recapitalize its balance sheet. Furthermore,
if the situation does not improve, JPCL will not have sufficient cash to sustain the new
investment. The financial rehabilitation road map agreed is summarized in the following table:

28. The Project is expected to curtail losses with the envisaged capacity improvements and
efficiency improvement. However, this project will be the first ADB financed transaction and
PMU staff training will be necessary to be familiarized with ADB procedures. To bolster the
corporate and financial management capacities of EPP and to ensure governance in project-
related activities, the Project will include the following measures:
(i) Establish PMU, PIU and maintaining separate project accounts;
(ii) Conduct PMU and PIU staff training for ADB procedures (procurement and
disbursement)
(iii) Recruiting an international consulting firm to provide assistance in project
implementation;
(iv) Establishing a direct payment procedure and/or commitment procedure for
disbursements to contractors and consultants, and
(v) Project financial statements and entity-level financial statements annually audited
in accordance with international auditing standards by an external independent
auditor acceptable to ADB.

29. Overall control risks could be mitigated to medium level through various mitigation
measures. The financial risk assessment and mitigation measures are summarized in the table

F. Term of Reference of Project Implementation Consultant

A. Background

73. Pakistan faces energy shortage that decreases industrial productivity and adversely
affects the social welfare of the people. To sustain economic growth and make it more inclusive,
a reliable supply of electricity is essential, as electricity is central to almost every aspect of the
country’s sustainable socioeconomic development. Uninterrupted supply of electricity supports
commerce and business, maintains and attracts industrial activities for job creation, and
enhances people’s well-being. Energy efficiency and diversification of energy mix away from
imported heavy fuel oil (HFO) to cheaper coal are, for Pakistan, the faster and cheaper ways to
increase electricity supply and to decrease generation cost.

74. The Jamshoro Power Generation Project (JPGP) will increase reliable power generation
and reduce power shortage through construction of one new supercritical coal-fired power unit
in Jamshoro Thermal Power Station (TPS). This will provide the power needed to help address
the country’s power shortage and improve reliability and enhance energy security by diversifying
the fuel mix.

XI. ANTICORRUPTION POLICY

121. The Borrower, through the GHCL and JPCL, shall comply with ADB's Anticorruption
Policy (1998, as amended to date),32 and operate fully with any investigation by ADB and
extend all necessary assistance, including providing access to all relevant books and records for
the satisfactory completion of such investigation. ADB reserves the right to investigate, directly
or through its agents, any violations of the Anticorruption Policy relating to the project. GHCL
and JPCL shall ensure that anticorruption provisions acceptable to ADB are included in all
bidding documents and contracts, including provisions specifying the right of ADB to audit and
examine the records and accounts of GHCL, JPCL and all project consultants, suppliers,
consultants and other service providers as they relate to the Project. Individuals/entities on
ADB’s anticorruption debarment list are ineligible to participate in ADB financed activity and may
not be awarded any contracts under the project.33

122. To support these efforts, relevant provisions are included in the loan
agreement/regulations and grant agreement/regulations and the bidding documents for the
project. Procurement will follow ADB Procurement Guidelines (2013, as amended from time to
time), consultant selection will adopt ADB Guidelines on the Use of Consultants (2013, as
amended from time to time), and disbursement will be made in accordance with ADB's
disbursement policies, guidelines, practices, and procedures.

XII. ACCOUNTABILITY MECHANISM

123. People who are, or may in the future be, adversely affected by the project may submit
complaints to ADB, or request the review of ADB’s compliance under the Accountability
Mechanism. The Accountability Mechanism provides an independent forum and process
whereby people adversely affected by ADB-assisted projects can voice, and seek a resolution
of their problems, as well as report alleged violations of ADB’s operational policies and
procedures. Before submitting a complaint to the Accountability Mechanism, affected people
should make a good faith effort to solve their problems by working with the concerned ADB
operations department. Only after doing that, and if they are still dissatisfied, should they
approach the Accountability Mechanism.34
