  1. Conference on Sustainable Development and Ecologically Secure Functioning of Uzbekistan’s Energy Sector – Perspectives and Problems September 20 to 22, 2005 Tashkent, Republic of Uzbekistan Strategy of World Bank for Supporting Power Sector Projects in Central Asia Presentation by Raghuveer Sharma Team Leader, Central Asia Energy Programs The World Bank, Washington DC, USA

  2. Fast growing demand for energy in Asia (China, India, but also Iran and Pakistan) Significant inefficiencies and large investment needs in Central Asia’s energy sectors Integrated power transmission systems, but domestic self-sufficiency strategies World Bank objective: Unlocking power sector potential through exports Priority investments to maximize efficiency gains Strategic Context

  3. Central Asia’s Electricity Export Potential

  4. Installed Capacity

  5. Annual Generation still less than in 1990

  6. Annual Load CurvesEssentially Winter Peaking System

  7. Central Asia and its Neighboring Electricity Export Markets Rogun HPP Investment US$2,455 mil. Capacity 3,600 MW Annual Generation 13,000 GWh AIC of Generation 2.83 cents/kWh Kambarata 1 HPP Investment US$1,940 mil. Capacity 1,900 MW Annual Generation 5,100 GWh AIC of Generation 7.17 cents/kWh Kambarata 2 HPP Investment US$280 mil. Capacity 240 MW Annual Generation 1,116 GWh AIC of Generation 3.72 cents/kWh Vaksh Cascade of HPPs Actual Annual Generation 14,000 GWh Additional Generation by the existent Cascade with Rogun HPP 300-1,500 GWh Sangtuda HPP Investment US$370 mil. Capacity 670 MW Annual Generation 2,700 GWh AIC of Generation 1.97 cents/kWh Talimarjan TPP Unit #1 Units #2-4 Investment US$ mil. 100 1,200 Capacity MW 800 2400 Annual Generation 4,538 13,613 AIC of Generation cents/kWh 1.68 2.76

  8. Central Asia - Supply/Demand Forecasts

  9. There is a shortage in the winter months currently But this shortage is small – 5% of demand in those months Can be made up by loss reduction, efficiency improvement And trading for electricity Even now, there is quite a surplus in summer – 11000 GWh available for export – minimum of 6000 GWh Central Asia Regional Demand Supply Assessment Summary

  10. Possible Transmission Links for Exports

  11. Estimates of Transmission Costs Almaty-Urumqui 500 kV DC Line Length 1050 kilometers Annual Power Transmission 10000 GWh Investment US$ Mn.210 Cost of Transmission 0.83 USc/kWh SS Surhan-Kabul 500 kV AC Line Length 515 kilometers Annual Power Transmission 10000 GWh Investment US$ Mn.153 Cost of Transmission 0.22 USc/kWh Kabul-Tarbela 500 kV AC Line Length 360 kilometers Annual Power Transmission 2000 GWh Investment US$ Mn.90 Cost of Transmission 0.66 USc/kWh Kabul-Kandahar 500 kV AC Line Length 490 kilometers Annual Power Transmission 5000 GWh Investment US$ Mn.118 Cost of Transmission 0.35 USc/kWh SS Surhan-Mashad 500 kV AC Line Length 1150 kilometers Annual Power Transmission 10000 GWh Investment US$ Mn.320 Cost of Transmission 0.53 USc/kWh Kandahar-Karachi 500 kV AC Line Length 900 kilometers Annual Power Transmission 3500 GWh Investment US$ Mn.227 Cost of Transmission 0.97 USc/kWh

  12. Competitiveness of Central Asian Electricity in Neighboring Markets Based on Crude Oil prices at US$30/barrel

  13. Afghanistan very keen but needs are small Will have payment problem, although under World Bank encouragement willing to use Donors Trust Funds Best approach is to supply electricity in exchange for right-of-way to reach Iran and Pakistan Pakistan and Iran are real markets Both have asked World Bank to help create electricity trade with Central Asia Both keen to trade with Central Asia Electricity Exports- Strategic Considerations

  14. Market Risks are real Electricity is often equated with national security Dependence on imports for large part of need is not politically viable Need to invite importers to have shareholding in the projects This is one way of getting them to commit to import Russian Strategic Interests and Actions Other Strategic Considerations
