Book excerpt: Seminar paper from the year 2013 in the subject Engineering - Power Engineering, grade: A, GC University (GC University), language: English, abstract: Energy is considered to be the life line of an economy. It is a most vital instrument of the socio-economic development of a country. Energy is a very important factor in the production process. Energy is pivotal in running machinery in factories and industrial units, for lighting our cities and powering our vehicles etc. There has been enormous increase in the demand of energy due to the massive industrialization and rapid population growth in comparison to the enhancement in the supply of energy production. Supply of energy is, therefore, far less than the actual demand, resultantly crisis has emerged. An energy crisis can be defined as any great bottleneck (or price rise) in the supply of energy resources to an economy. With the evolution of civilizations, the human demand for energy has continuously increased. At present, the key factor which drives the growth in energy demand include increasing human population, modernization and urbanization. According to the united nations , the world population 6.5 billion in 2005 is to grow to 9.1 billion by 2050 and most of the population growth is expected to place in the developing world Asia and Africa.(Dinner, 1999). Poverty, hunger, disease, illiteracy and environmental degradation are the most important challenges faced by the world. Poor and inadequate access to secure an affordable means of energy in one of the crucial factors behind these issues. Electricity for example is vital for providing basic social services such as education and health, water supply and purification, sanitation, and refrigeration of essential medicines. Electricity is of course, very helpful in supporting a wide range of income generation opportunities. The leading countries in the world in terms of population without access to electricity include India, Bangladesh, Indonesia, Nigeria, Pakistan, Congo, Ethiopia, Myanmar, Tanzania, and Kenya. With the growing world population and people's aspiration for improved life a central and collective global issue in the new century is to sustain socio-economic growth within the constraints of the earth’s limited natural resource along with preserving the environment.

This book was released on 2021-01-20 with total page 17 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Essay from the year 2020 in the subject Politics - Environmental Policy, grade: 1.0, School of Oriental and African Studies, University of London (Center for International Studies and Diplomacy), course: Climate Change Law and Policy, language: English, abstract: This essay will compare and contrast India and Pakistan’s climate change laws and policies of approximately the last decade regarding three kinds of targets that are attributed high weight in their Intended Nationally Determined Contributions: Greenhouse gas emission reduction, emission intensity and efficiency as well as renewable energy (RE). This focus on mitigation efforts rather than adaptation efforts has been chosen since emerging economies are predicted to be “by far the most important source of future emission growth”. Linked to this, the two states’ main sources of emissions – their electricity and energy sectors – will be discussed throughout the essay. Overall, it is argued that despite similar starting points, India’s emission-related policies have grown more ambitious in recent years, compared to those of Pakistan – but both countries’ efforts still fall short of combatting climate change sufficiently.

This book was released on 2016-08-09 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Master's Thesis from the year 2016 in the subject Engineering - Power Engineering, Kadir Has University (Kadir Has University), course: Industrial Engineering, language: English, abstract: Pakistan is a developing country and it can only move forward once the energy sector is secure and self-sufficient. Right from the beginning, the country has constantly faced energy shortages in all sectors due to incompetent policies and governance. This study frames the analysis of the current energy situation, with main focus on electricity. All the factors which are hampering the growth of the energy sector are identified and potential solutions are discussed. Matching the electricity supply and demand is the ultimate goal, therefore a forecast analysis (multiple regression model) based on seasonal variation in temperature is performed in order to predict the future electric consumption and help authorities take necessary actions for fulfilment. Finally, a comprehensive detail is provided on the causes and problems of the energy crisis, and potential solutions and reforms are provided.

Download or read book Pakistan s Energy Issues written by Akhtar Ali and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-12-03 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author presents a thorough analysis of Pakistan's energy sector. Being an insider, he has had enough exposure to be able to point out issues and problems and has been able to develop a package of thorough recommendations. He has argued for better negotiations of CPEC energy sector's terms and has advised NEPRA to take steps to bring down tariff to a fair and affordable level but argues that Petroleum prices in Pakistan are fair and lowest in the region. The author is of the view that energy imports should be discouraged and argues in favour of local resource development and indigenization. In the back drop of remarkable recent reduction in Solar PV prices, he argues for a significant reappraisal of existing plans leading to a major initiative for inducting solar electricity in a distributed mode at about 50 locations. He has proposed alternatives and cheaper approaches with respect to Smart Meters, LPG distribution projects and RLNG terminals etc. Supporting coal, he has criticized avoidance of the required environmental controls and has demanded corrective steps in this respect. Overall, he presents an optimistic picture with critical evaluation of issues and problems. Laden with a lot of data and tables, the book should be a must reading for policy makers, stakeholders, academia and all those who have more than a passing interest in the subject.
