General Information on Afghanistan - Afghanistan, is a mountainous land-locked country

located in Central Asia - The exact population of Afghanistan is unknown,

however, it is estimated to be somewhere close to 32 million.

- Total of 5,529 km border with countries - Total land area is 652,000 sq. km - Located, Southern Asia, north and west of Pakistan,

east of Iran, south of Tajikistan, Uzbekistan and Turkmenistan and west of China.

- Total of 5,529 km border with countries that is with China- 76 km, Iran- 936 km, Pakistan- 2,430 km, Tajikistan- 1,206 km, Turkmenistan- 744 km and Uzbekistan- 137 km



Current Energy Policy and measures

Afghanistan Energy Infrastructure, generation, transmission and distribution were almost destroyed over the past three decades due to the war and conflict.

Four ministries have direct contacts with the energy

1.Ministry of Energy and Water (electricity generation (hydro, imports),transmission, distribution)

2.Ministry of Mines (oil, gas, coal)

3.Ministry of Rural Rehabilitation and Development (rural electrification)

4.Ministry of Commerce and Industries (liquid fuels)




The government of Afghanistan corporatized the National electricity service department Da Afghanistan Breshna Sherkat (DABS) on May 2008

Ministry of Finance 45%

Ministry of Energy and Water 35%

Ministry of Economy

10%

Ministry of Urban

Planning and Development

10%

DABS shares are owned by



The Afghanistan National Development Strategy (ANDS) The only existing development Strategy made by Government



In Afghanistan a proper Energy policy doesn’t exist

For Electricity (MoEW & DABS)

DABS have below polices

Power sale policy

HR Policy

IT Policy

Finance Policy

Transport Policy

Procurement Policy




Past Energy demand and supply In 1980, the per capita

energy consumption of Afghanistan was Fourth in the region, greater than that of Sri Lanka and Bangladesh

By 2004, per capita consumption had fallen drastically from slightly less than 2 million BTU per person




No Name Year of Install1 Naghlo 19672 Maheper 19663 Srobee 19574 Kajakee 19575 Daronta 19646 Pelkhmree 1 19417 Pelkhmree 2 19628 Jabul Saraj 19219 Chak 194010 Parwan 197611 Greshk 1961

Past Energy demand and supply

• In Afghanistan, total electricity supply has nearly doubled from 1.894 GWh in the fiscal year 2009-10 to 3.579 GWh in 2011-12

• In 2006, 19 out of 45 power plants listed by the Center were not operational, while by 2011, only eight out of 45 did not produce power (Below is list of Hydro power plants which are included)


current Energy demand and supply For instance, in Kabul, around 70% of households are connected; while in

2001, only 6% of Kabul city had access to electricity.

metered connections increased nearly three and a half times between 2003 and 2010, from 227,000 to 786,449 connections

Moreover, revenue collection of DABS-Kabul has improved by 59%, the technical and commercial losses have decreased by 12% from 50% to 38%.

Afghanistan’s installed energy capacity has increased by around 139%, from approximately 430MW in 2001 to 1029MW in 2009

overall supply of electricity has almost tripled between 2006 and 2011.



current Energy demand and supply For instance, in 2006 domestically generated hydro and thermal power accounted for nearly 50% and 17% of power production respectively; whereas in 2011 hydro power constituted only 26% and thermal power 1.3% of the annual power production.

Afghanistan Electricity Imports by Country of Origin (2006 – 2011)



Energy Loss Reduction making supply higher Energy Loss Reduction

- Installation of grid meters: “Proof of Concept” Pilot being implemented in Kabul

- Revenue Protection Department conducting Meter Audit of entire Kabul

• Community Awareness Program: media campaign, brochures, leaflets, etc.

• Automatic Meter Reading (AMR) Meters

-Pilot planning in process for largest industrial customers in Kabul

• Prepaid Metering

- Pilot planned for 10,000 customers in Macroryan area of Kabul

• Upgrading of the system (15kv to 20kv)

• Developing computerized tool for optimization of our generation and imported power.



Current Power System and Energy Profile

- 9 islands in operation fed from different systems

- Electrification rate of households about 30 %

- Peak load about 850MW

- Annual energy consumption 3800GWh

- About 76% of the energy consumption covered by imports

Existing power system, situation 2011/2012



• Demand is Growth of Connections

Total number of DABS customers served throughout Afghanistan

2010 2011 2012 Household 715,742 91.01% 814,585 91.95% 873,613 92.08% Commercials 65,886 8.38% 65,940 7.44% 76,431 7.31% governmental 4,821 0.61% 5,360 0.61% 5,762 0.60% Total 786,449 885,885 955,806



Meeting the Future Energy Demand Both sources of power, local generation as well as import from neighboring power systems will

be required to cover the expected demand growth

1- Local Generation

- Hydropower resources: 12 potential hydro power options are available.

Gas and Coal resources: Sheberghan gas and Bamyan coal

Renewable energy : Solar

2- Import from neighboring systems

- Turkmenistan

Ongoing project TKM-AFG interconnector 300 MW northwest Afghanistan

Possible increase of supply on the new interconnector up to 1000 MW

- Uzbekistan

Present supply is limited to 300 MW due to constraints of transmission capacity

- Tajikistan

Continue of seasonal Import in spring and summer up to 300 MW

- Iran

Continue of in feed to bordering regions Nimruz and Herat



Generation and Transmission Required Domestic generation as well as import from neighboring power systems will be required to cover the expected demand growth in Afghanistan.

- In short term

Increase import from Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan

Utilization of Sheberghan gas, Balance of energy mix HPP/TPP

- In mid term

Construction of further hydro power plants

Development of coal resources for thermal power plants,

required imports will be decreased to 33% from total energy consumption,

16


Integrated Grid to Cover the Expected Demand Growth

for economic development and use of own energy resources

to ensure secure power supply from balanced energy mix

for diversification and reduction of dependence on imports



Recent Outcomes Supplies are Production and Imports which belong to Routing (Transmission Lines)

The availability of power in Afghanistan has improved significantly over the last two years

- 105MW thermal power plant at Tarakhil was commissioned in 2009

- North Eastern Power System improved power imports from Uzbekistan was commissioned in 2010 and added an extra 550MW capacity to the regional grid

- Rehabilitation of Hydro Stations serving Kabul i.e Naghlu, Sarobi, Mahipar



Investment plan for optimized system expansion until 2020



Prospect to the planning until 2032 Development of the power sector towards a system covering the whole Afghanistan requires global support integrated transmission network of Afghanistan

- Share of domestic production increases to 67 % - About 83 % of the population will have access to electricity - Peak load of about 3500 MW - Annual energy consumption of 18400 GWh - Power exchange options with neighboring systems


2013-2015 2016-2020 2021-2025 2026-2032

Percentage of Households connected

50% 69% 76% 83%

Annual gross demand served for total Afghanistan 5700 GWh 9100 GWh 12500GWh 18400 GWh

Total installed capacity 510 MW 710 MW 1210 MW 3600 MW

Share of Afghan own generation 43% 38% 53% 67%

Average annual investment $320 m $580 m $790 m $320 m

Accumulated investment $960 m $3870 m $3870 m $10065 m


Major difficulties and bottlenecks currently faced in formulating energy policies in Afghanistan

Lack of Professional cadre (do to the last 30 years problems)

Lack strong energy policy

92% of costumers are residential (subside causes big loss to the system )

-per unit cost is greater than per unit selling price



Subjects I would like to study in the order of priority and the reason

-Energy policy in Japan (electricity)

-Energy policy in Japan (Renewable energy)

-Biomass power generation

-wind power generation

-Mini hydro power generation

-PV power generation

-Environmental problems

-Energy demand forecasting of the World/Asia



Primary Stage Transmission Project



Stage A



Stage B



Stage C



Final stage D on 2032
