  1. Afghanistan Energy SectorOverview8 Nov 2010

  2. Energy Sector Overview • Existing Energy Infrastructure Severely Damaged Constraining Afghanistan Economic Development • Access to power about 25% of Population • Rural Areas Remain Practically Unconnected • Hydropower is Traditional Source • Estimated potential 800MW • Installed capacity 304MW • Operating Capacity 183MW • Source SARI/Energy

  3. Primary Sources of Electricity • Historically • Primarily Hydropower Generating over 54% of the Total • Balance was Thermal, Primarily Coal and Gas • Facilities Suffered Extensive War Damage • Current Supply • Primarily Hydropower and Imported • Diesel, Thermal • Planned Supply • Imported Thru Expanded Transmission System • Gas Supply – Sheberghan Project • Excess Power into NEPS Transmission System • Generation -Primarily Hyro Based on Analysis of SAR/Energy Data

  4. Power Sector Governance • Ministry Energy and Water • Development of Sector • Donor project implementation • Regulation of tariffs • Inter-Ministerial Committee on Energy • Donor coordination forum • Da Afghanistan Breshna Sherkat (DABS) • State-owned National Electricity Company • Responsible for operation of Generation, Transmission, Distribution • Launched in 2009 as corporatized entity, was formerly part of MEW • Role is still evolving • USAID provides management assistance to DABS (Tetra Tech, LB/B&V) • Focus on distribution reform (Kabul, Kandahar)

  5. Power Generation

  6. Planned Priority (Tranche 1)Generation Power Plants [1]

  7. Transmission Overview • War Damaged Transmission System • Disconnected – Fragmented • Metering of Power Supply Inadequate • Since 2002 – Key Activities • Pul-e-Khumri-Chimtala Transmission Line to connect Kabul at 110 • Hairatan-Mazar-e-Sharif-Pul-e-Power Grid • Kajaki-Kandahar HV Transmission Line under SEPS • Prioritized Efforts – Additional System Expansion, Rehabilitation, Operation, Maintenance and Control Summary of SARI/Energy Information

  8. Planned Priority (Tranch1&2)Transmission Projects [1]Donor Funded

  9. Uzbekistan System Constraints and Expansion Afghanistan Power Sector Uzbekistan Imports 100MW to 470MW ($.06/KwH) Near-term Power Availability Northern Run-of-River Hydropower Untapped 1,200MW Qal'a-i Mamay Turkmenistan 445 Sheberghan NEPS 2 Expansion 600MW Capacity Tajikistan Imports 300MW April- October ADB - Construction Underway ($0.035 KwH) 400 54 Kelegai Sheberghan Gas Field 48 Fertilizer Plant 150 Iran Pul-e-Khumri Substation Aynak Coal SEPS Expansion Kajaki Unit 2 from 34 to 52MW Plus Transmission and Distribution 800 Shal 250 Kajaki Power and Irrigation Expansion 60-100MW Sheberghan Gas Field Thermal Power Plants Power and Gas Lines 150MW + 48MW Tarakhil Naghlu 105 Hajigak Iron TPP Gamberi 36 Sarubi 12 Darunta Aynak Copper Sarbiz 66 100 Proposed 500kV Line Existing 220kV 2 Circuit NEPS-Kandahar Tactical Tie-in 30MW-150MW 22 Proposed 22okV 2 Circuit 11 SEPS Existing 110kV Line Proposed 110kV Line Transmission and Distribution to Eastern Populations 400MW Capacity Existing 20kV Import Line Kajaki Proposed 500/220kV Substation Existing/Proposed 220kV Substation 27 Existing/Proposed 110kV Substation Existing Natural Gas Pipeline Proposed Natural Gas Pipeline TPP Thermal Power Plant Pakistan NEPS Dala Hydropower Plant (proposed) Natural Gas Field 52 34

  10. NEPS Current, Under Construction, Planned Transmission Lines

  11. Proposed Law on Electricity Services • Electricity Service Providers Must be Licensed • Electricity Services that Require a License • Generating Units or Stations > 500kW • Operation of HV Transmission System • Operation of Electric Distribution System > 500 Customers • Operation in a Electricity Market at Wholesale • Supply or Trade of Electricity w/sales > 2% of Total Market • License Term 25 Years • License Fees to be Determined by AERA • Distribution License may be Required for Each Province Served. • Provision allows IPP and Others to Provide Service to Customers

  12. Electricity Tariffs in Kabul • Government, Commercial & Un-Registered Industrial $0.20/kWh • Registered Industrial $0.12/kWh • Residential • 0-150 kWh/month $0.03/kWh • 151-350 kWh/month $0.08/kWh • 351 + kWh/month $0.12/kWh • Other $0.20/kWh

  13. DABS Asks that REMAP Consider: • Studies to help DABS learn what investments are required to get synchronized with Uzbekistan. Parallel operation would enable expanded imports, and improved reliability. • Training in how dispatch is being done in northern countries (Uzbekistan) so DABS can do likewise. • Help in expanding trade with Turkmenistan.  DABS finds them most interesting since they can offer thermal power, whereas Tajikistan can offer only hydro and is not firm.

  14. The Project GoalProvide Electric Service to Afghanistan
