NTDC TRANSMISSION EXPANSION PLAN

1 OBJECTIVES

The transmission expansion plan for NTDC has been developed to fulfil the following

objectives:

To ensure that the planned generation expansion can be delivered to the major load centres throughout the country

To identify any requirements (technical and/or economic) that might require the introduction of any new voltage levels and/or transmission types into the existing

transmission network

To determine the reinforcements required in the transmission network to meet the growing demand of the load centres by developing new grid stations and their

associated transmission lines at 500 kV and 220 kV levels interconnecting with the

transmission lines emanating from the proposed power plants.

To fulfill the reliability criteria of NTDC Grid Code approved by NEPRA in terms of acceptable voltage, frequency, loading of lines and transformers for normal (N-0) and

contingency (N-1) conditions both under disturbed dynamic/transient conditions and

steady state conditions.

To determine the long-term impacts on fault levels throughout the transmission network and to examine mitigating measures to deal with excessive fault levels.

To check the transient and dynamic stability of 500 kV HVAC or above, and HVDC systems catering for the bulk transmission of power from major power plants to the

major load centres to verify the adequacy of network for normal and disturbed

conditions.

To estimate the economic cost of these reinforcements in a staged manner. Such costs are then added to the cost of the new generation required to provide the basic

input data to the financial analysis and the examination of the impact on tariffs.

2 PLANNING AND PERFORMANCE CRITERIA

The transmission system expansion plans are required to fulfil the Grid Code of NTDC

approved by NEPRA, the regulatory authority of electrical power in Pakistan. The following

are the planning and performance criteria laid down in the Grid Code:



Steady State:

Adequacy evaluation of planning studies for steady-state system performance shall be

based on equipment loading, congestion management, fault levels and voltage regulation.

Steady-state planning studies for steady state load flow studies shall be deemed acceptable

if they do not result in any voltage violations or overloads based on predetermined loading

limits for Normal (N-0) and Emergency (N-1) contingency conditions.

Dynamic/Transient Conditions:

System stability must be maintained following the disturbances listed below:

(a) Permanent three-phase faults on any primary transmission line and associated

components. It is assumed that a fault will be cleared by circuit breaker action in 5 cycles.

(b) Failure of a circuit breaker to clear a fault (Stuck Breaker condition) in 5 cycles, with

back up clearing in 9 cycles after fault initiation

The robustness of the proposed transmission expansion plan shall be tested against

criterion (a) whereas the worst case of critical clearing time i.e. criterion (b) needs to be

applied at detailed design stage of generating stations. If the System is found to be unstable,

then mitigation measures shall be identified and incorporated into the system improvement

plans for future years.

Grid Frequency Variations:

The Frequency of the NTDC Transmission System shall be nominally 50Hz and shall be

maintained within the limits of 49.8 to 50.2 unless exceptional circumstances prevail.

Grid Voltage Variations:

Under (N-0) normal operating conditions, System Operating Voltages of the Total System

shall be maintained within the bandwidth of +8% to 5% of Nominal System Voltage. Under

(N-1) contingency operating conditions, the voltage variation shall be in the range of +10%

and 10% of Nominal System Voltage

Short Circuit (Fault Levels):

Short circuit calculations shall be prepared for each study year, and adequacy of fault

interrupting capability and short circuit withstand capacity shall be ensured.



3 TYPICAL CHARACTERISTICS OF NTDC LONGITUDINAL NETWORK

Pakistan is geographically a longitudinal country, i.e. more like a vertical rectangle and same

is true for the primary network of NTDC. The 500 kV network runs from Peshawar in the

North to HUBCO near Karachi in the South (see Figure 3.1).

The maximum load is concentrated in the middle of the country where local generation

potential is limited because of lack of fossil fuel resources and meagre hydropower potential

in the plains. Hydropower generation potential is located in the North and thermal power

generation sources are mainly in the South. The least cost Generation Plan (Base Case)

developed for this Expansion Plan Study also envisages maximum hydropower generation

located up in the North whereas the major thermal power plants based on indigenous and

imported fossil fuel are located in South. Therefore during high water months when hydel

power is at the maximum the power flows from the North to South, whereas in low water

months when the thermal power in the South is run at its maximum, the power flow is

reversed to be from the South to North. Long HVAC (500 kV or above) and HVDC lines are

required to carry power from the far North and far South to mid country where the maximum

load is concentrated.

With insignificant local generation in mid-country, the huge reactive power (MVAR) demand

would not be advisable to be supplied from power plants in the far North and far South as

excessive flow of VARs would cause severe voltage drop across long and heavily loaded

lines, therefore sufficient VAR sources would be required to be installed in terms of shunt

capacitor banks at the distribution level and, if required, at the transmission level as well.

Other dynamic VAR compensation devices such as SVCs, SVS, and other FACTS devices

might be required to be installed at appropriate locations in mid-country.

Also in the high water season, when power flows mainly from hydel power plants in the

North, the HVAC circuits in the South would be lightly loaded because of the low dispatch of

thermal power from the South and vice versa. The lightly loaded HVAC lines generate

excessive VARs due to their high charging current and would require a sufficient amount of

shunt reactors, line connected or bus connected depending on the requirement. Therefore

the levels of compensations, inductive and capacitive, are to be very carefully studied and

planned.

4 APPROACH AND METHODOLOGY

4.1 Inputs

The following input data has been assumed for the study cases:

Load Forecast, base case scenario, prepared by NTDC and validated by SNC-Lavalin (Appendices1.1 and 1.2)

Base Case Generation Expansion Plan developed by SNC-Lavalin for NPSEP (Appendix-1.4)

Transmission network data file in PSS/E format supplied by NTDC for the years 2010 and 2014

All the ongoing and committed or planned transmission expansion plans of NTDC envisaged up to the year 2016-17 (Appendix-1.5).

Inputs from the other ongoing feasibility studies have been incorporated as follows:

o 500 kV HVDC Bipole for 1000 MW import of power from Iran (conducted by NESPAK and SNC Lavalin)

o 500 kV HVDC Bipole for 1300 MW import of power from CASA (conducted by NESPAK and SNC Lavalin)

o Transmission scheme based on 500 kV double circuits using quad bundled Martin conductor for the evacuation of power from 26

hydropower plants to be located on river Indus and its tributaries in

Northern Areas of Pakistan (being conducted by PB/PPI/MAES)

o Transmission scheme for evacuation of power from indigenous and imported coal based thermal power plants in the South (Thar and

Karachi) connecting with the Southern Grid at 500 kV and at 600 kV

HVDC from South to Mid-country (being conducted by NESPAK and

SNC Lavalin)

4.2 Development of Study Cases

The spot years for study have been identified in agreement with NTDC corresponding to different intervals in which major generation additions occur as

per the Base Case Generation Expansion Plan, which are 2016, 2020, 2025 and

2030 respectively.



Base case of the year 2020 was developed as a reference to develop the other spot years cases. DISCO transmission expansion plan up to the 132 kV level

developed till the year 2020 was used as the fundamental base case,

superimposing the NTDC transmission infrastructure of 220 kV and 500 kV

adequate to meet the DISCO transmission needs with the proposed extensions,

augmentations and construction of new 500/220 kV and 220/132 kV substations

Case for the year 2030 was developed to determine the ultimate scope of 220 kV and 500 kV transmission additions in the system to meet the projected forecast

and the corresponding generation additions. The expansion of DISCO

transmission network up to the 132 kV level was assumed frozen at the year

2020 and future projections of loads were assumed lumped at new 220/132 kV

substations proposed to be constructed between 2020 and 2030.

The cases for the intermediate years of 2016 and 2025 were developed to determine the scope of the transmission system expansion during the

intermediate years.

Standard tools of analysis for transmission expansion planning i.e. load flow, short circuit and transient stability analyses were employed using the state of art

software PSS/E of Siemens-PTI.

Two cases each for high water (high hydel) and low water (high thermal) were studied for each spot year of the study i.e. 2016, 2020, 2025 and 2030. Load flow

simulations were carried out for normal (N-0) and ) contingency (N-1) conditions

for each case to determine the adequacy of the proposed transmission facilities

for each seasonal pattern of power flow

Short circuit analysis was carried out for the calculation of maximum three-phase and single-phase fault currents for the years 2020 and 2030 using IEC 909 as

employed in PSS/E software.

Transient stability analysis was carried out for the system of 500 kV for the years 2020 and 2030 employing the following standard worst case disturbance:

o 3-phase fault at bus bar with fault clearing time of 5 cycles o Trip of the heavily loaded circuit emanating from the bus bar o Monitor post fault damping of transients of rotor angles and power swings

with recovery of voltage and frequency of the system



5 DETERMINATION OF FUTURE NEEDS OF 500/220 KV & 220/132 KV GRID STATIONS

5.1 Load Forecast

NTDC has developed two scenarios of load forecast based on:

Power Market Survey (PMS) Long Term Forecast involving growth indices of country globally

These forecasts are attached as Appendices 1.1 and 1.2. The first one may be called

bottom-up approach initiating from grass root level of 11 kV feeders and developed up to

132 kV level of DISCO peak. The other approach may be called top down that considers

overall countrys growth indices and develops future peak demand globally at country level

and then breaks it down to DISCO peaks.

The PMS forecast was used for developing the DISCO and NTDC transmission expansion

plans up to the year 2020. Individual DISCO peak cases have been combined together to

make a composite case for NTDC transmission expansion of the spot years of study up to

2020.

5.2 Needs of 500/220 kV and 220/132 kV Grid Stations till 2020/21

For NTDC transmission system expansion between 2021 and 2030, the global forecast was

used because the focus is only on 500 kV and 220 kV network expansion in these years;

being given that the132 kV network expansion was frozen as of the year 2020.

Future reinforcements up to 2020 in the existing 220/132 kV grid stations in terms of

augmentation or addition and requirements for new 220/132 kV grid stations have been

worked out based on the following:

Tentative transmission expansion plan up to 2016-17 supplied by NTDC as attached in Appendix-1.5

Need for new 220/132 kV substations established by DISCO transmission expansion load flow analysis for normal and N-1 contingency cases up to the year 2020.



Expansion of 500/220 kV grid stations up to the year 2020 has also been assumed

principally based on the tentative transmission expansion plan of NTDC (Appendix-1.5) plus

further requirements established due to overloading of 500/220 kV transformers revealed in

load flow analysis of DISCO peaks especially in big load centres of Lahore, Faisalabad,

Islamabad, Peshawar and Karachi.

5.3 Needs of 500/220 kV and 220/132 kV Grid Stations from 2020/21 to 2029/30

Detailed load capacity analysis has been carried out to determine the requirements of new

220/132 kV grid stations to feed different DISCO loads between 2020 and 2030. The results

are attached in Appendix 1.3. The methodology of this analysis is explained below:

Load flow case of year 2020 for NTDC transmission with all DISCO peak cases combined in it, has been assumed as the base reference case. All loads

represented at 11kV and 132 kV have been frozen. The power supplied internally

through generation connected at 132 kV and imported from neighbouring DISCOs

(at CDPs) is also frozen

MW flows on 220/132 kV grid stations feeding each DISCO peak load in 2020 case have been noted for respective DISCO in separate sheets.

Sum of MW flows at 220/132 kV transformers and the internal supply at 132 kV levels is equal to DISCO peak load. The proportion of MW flows through a particular

220/132 kV grid station with reference to total MW flows injected into DISCO peak

as of 2020 base case has been worked out.

MW flows of 220/132 kV transformers of 2020 base case load flow were projected up to the year 2030 at the annual growth rates of the respective DISCOs

maintaining the same ratio of MW flow that was worked out from the 2020 base

case load flow.

The concept of firm capacity i.e. N-1 of the transformers capacity has been applied for the period 2020 2030.

When the projected MW flows at 220/132 kV grid station cross the firm capacity, either of the following reinforcements have been proposed

o Augmentation to higher capacity assuming maximum size of transformer to be 350 MVA



o Addition of transformers depending on availability of space capping maximum number of transformers to be 4 at one grid station with maximum

size of a transformer as 350 MVA .

o New grid station in the neighbourhood of the same grid station where the load has exceeded the firm capacity.

In Appendix 1.3, the results of the load capacity analysis for determining the need of 220/132 kV reinforcements in the concession area of each DISCO has been

presented in separate sheets which indicate replacement (augmentation), addition

(extension) and new 220/132 kV grid stations required between 2020 and 2030.

as shown in Appendix-1.5. The plan envisages removing the present bottlenecks in the

existing 500 kV and 220 kV network and substations which presently face severe



congestions, overloadings and violations of Grid Code criteria. This plan has been

incorporated as such in the load flow simulations for 2016-17 with some changes proposed

for the evacuation of power from the New Hydropower Plants (PB/PPI/MAES Study) and for

the Thar Coal and Imported Coal based thermal power plants (SNC/NESPAK Study).

The additions, augmentations, extensions etc. at 500 kV and 220 kV planned till 2016-17 to

resolve congestion and overloading in the system have been indicated in Appendix-1.5 and

are modeled and indicated in the load flow study results.

6.6 Load Flow Results of the year 2016-17

Load flow studies for high water (low thermal) and low water (high thermal) have been

performed for normal (N-0) and contingency (N-1) conditions for each case. The automatic

contingency analysis (ACCC) facility of PSS/E was used for the 220 kV network assuming

thermal limit as the permissible loading limit because 220 kV lines in the NTDC network are

not very long. However for the 500 kV system separate load flow simulations were

performed for each individual outage of a 500 kV circuit. The loading limit in 500 kV may

not be the thermal limit and it is necessary to see the loading levels on the intact circuits for

each individual outage case from the point of view of stability limits.

The drawings of plotted results for high (HW) and low water (LW) cases are placed in

Appendices 2.1 and 2.2 respectively.

Normal (N-0) cases:

Exhibit-2016-HW-1.0 Results of Northern System of 500 kV

Exhibit-2016-HW-2.0 Results of Southern System of 500 kV and 220 kV


Exhibit-2017-LW-1.0 Results of Southern System of 500 kV and 220 kV

Exhibit-2017-LW-2.0 Results of Northern System of 500 kV




The results indicate that in the high water season, the 500 kV circuits in the Northern system

i.e. North of Multan and Sahiwal, are relatively heavily loaded compared to those in the

Southern system and vice versa in the low water season. This is for the obvious reasons of

dispatch of more power from hydropower plants located in North and less power from

thermal power plants in the South during HW season and vice versa in LW season. Voltages

on the 500 kV and 220 kV systems on the entire NTDC system from North to South are

within the normal permissible limits of the NEPRA Grid Code. The power flows on the lines

of 500 kV and 220 kV and 500/220kV and 220/132 kV transformers are also within their

rated limits.

Contingency (N-1) cases:

The automatic contingency analysis (ACCC) for 220 kV network indicates no violations of

voltage and line loadings establishing the adequacy of 220 kV lines and 220/132 kV

transformers envisaged in the NTDC proposed tentative expansion plan up to 2016-17.

The one-line-out contingency cases of the 500 kV system has been carried out for Northern

system for HW season and for Southern system for LW season respectively.

The plotted results are placed in Appendices 2.1 and 2.2 as follows:

Exhibit-2017-LW-1.18 Rousch to FBD-W 500 kV Single Circuit Out

Exhibit-2017-LW-1.19 Multan to Sahiwal 500 kV Single Circuit Out

The results indicate that power flows on the intact circuits of 500 kV and 500/220 kV

transformers for each outage are within the limits. The voltage profile on all 500 kV bus bars

is also within the permissible criteria.

The above analysis establishes the fact that the proposed expansion scheme of the 500 kV

and 220 kV network till 2016-17 is adequate and fulfills the criteria of the Grid Code.

7 TRANSMISSION EXPANSION FROM 2016-17 TO 2020-21


The sizes of 500/220 kV transformer banks are to be multiples of 750 MVA or 1000 MVA for

all the new 500/220 kV grid stations and multiples of 250 MVA or 350 MVA for all the new

220/132 kV substations as per requirements.

7.1.3 New 220/132 kV Grid Stations at Load Centers: 2016-17 to 2020-21

The detailed transmission expansion studies of all DISCOs for this period have established

the need for new 220/132 kV grid stations. The new 220/132 kV grid stations to be added in

this period are as follows:

Year Substation Voltage Size MVA 220 kV D/C Connections

2018 Shaikh Manda (Quetta) 220/132 2x250 Quetta-New(HVDC) to Sh. Manda

2020 Qasimpur 220/132 3x250 Multan-New to Qasimpur 220 kV (UGC cable if ROW not available)

2020 New Larkana 220/132 2x250 Shikarpur to Larkana-New 220 kV

2020 New Hala 220/132 2x250 Matiari-New-Hala 220 kV

2020 Bhakkar 220/132 2x250 D.I. Khan to Bhakkar 220 kV



7.1.4 New Transmission Lines for System Reinforcements Required for Normal and N-1 Contingency Conditions: 2016-17 to -2020-21

The following additional circuits are required to be added to avoid overloading on lines

during normal and N-1 contingency conditions:

Year Line kV Type

2016 In-Out Karachi-Coal PPs to Matiari at NKI 500kV 2 X D/C

2018 ISBD-West to IBD-P.Rd 220 kV D/C

2018 Mardan-Mardan New (500/220 kV) 220 kV 2xD/C

2018 Faiselabad-West to Samundri Rd. 220 kV D/C

7.1.5 Augmentations and Extensions at 500/220 kV and 220/132 kV Grid Stations: 2016-17 to -2020-21

Augmentations/Extensions at 500/220 kV grid stations proposed in this period are as follows:

Year Substation Voltage Size Type

2018 Lahore-South 500/220 1x750 MVA Extension

2019 Islamabad-West 500/220 1x750 MVA Extension

2019 Gujranwala (Gakhar) 500/220 1x750 MVA Extension

2019 Rewat 500/220 2x750 MVA Augmentation

2019 Sahiwal (Yousafwala) 500/220 2x750 MVA Augmentation

2020 Peshawar-2 500/220 1x750 MVA Extension

2020 NKI 500/220 2x600 MVA Extension

Twenty three (23) Augmentations/Extensions at 220/132 kV grid stations have been carried

out as explained in Appendix-10.1.


The above transmission scheme is the outcome of load capacity analysis and detailed load

flow analysis. The load flow studies for high hydel (low thermal) and low water (high thermal)

have been performed for normal (N-0) and contingency (N-1) conditions for the study spot

year of 2020-21 for each case. The study results with connectivity of all the new 500kV and



220 kV grid stations and new transmission lines proposed for this period have been plotted

and attached for HW and LW seasons in Appendix-3.1 and 3.2 respectively:

Normal (N-0) cases: Load flow results of normal cases i.e. with no circuits out of service, are attached as follows:


Exhibit-2020-HW-2.0 Results of Southern System of 500 kV and 220 kV


Exhibit-2021-LW-1.0 Results of Southern System of 500 kV and 220 kV



The results indicate the same pattern of power flows as in the previous spot years of study

i.e. heavier flows in Northern circuits of 500 kV and 220 kV during HW season and relatively

lighter flows on Southern grid; and vice versa during LW season. With the proposed

schemes of transmission expansion the system performance fulfills the Grid Code criteria.

The voltages on 500 kV and 220 kV on the entire NTDC system from North to South are

within the normal permissible limits. The power flows on the lines of 500 kV and 220 kV and

500/220kV and 220/132 kV transformers are also within their rated limits.


The automatic contingency analysis (ACCC) for the 220 kV network was carried out which

indicated some violations requiring reinforcement of the network as described above in

section 7.1.4. With the proposed reinforcements the violations of voltage and line loadings

were eliminated.

The one-line-out contingency cases of the 500 kV system have been carried out for Northern

system for HW season; and for Southern system for LW season respectively.

The N-1 contingency load flow results of 500 kV indicate that with the proposed scheme of

500 kV expansion during 2016-17 and 2020-21, all the criteria of Grid Code are met. The

power flows on the intact circuits of 500 kV and 500/220 kV transformers for each outage are

within the limits. The voltage profile on all 500 kV bus bars is also within the permissible

criteria.

The above analysis establishes the fact that the proposed expansion scheme of the 500 kV

and 220 kV network till 2020-21 is adequate and fulfills the criteria of the Grid Code under

normal and N-1 contingency conditions.






For the period from 2021-22 to 2025-26, the major generation additions comprise major

power from Dasu and its neighboring Lower Spatgah and Palas Valley HPPs.

As the bulk of the big hydropower plants in the Northern Areas of the Indus and its tributaries

have been added during 2022-2026, and all that power is being collected at the intermediate

switching stations/substations of Aliot, Mansehra and Mardan New, more circuits would be

required to be built from the switching stations to the main load centers as discussed in 8.1.3

below.

8.1.2 New 500/220 kV Grid Stations and Related Transmission Lines of 500 kV: 2021-22 to 2025-26

For the growing demand of the loads during the years 2021 and 2026, new bulk supply

points in terms of 500/220 kV grid stations are required to be added during this period,

especially in the big load centers such as Islamabad, Lahore, Faisalabad and Karachi which

would be integrated in the 500 kV ring to be developed around these cities as follows:

8.1.3 New 220/132 kV Grid Stations and Related Transmission Lines of 220 kV: 2021-22 to 2025-26

Detailed load capacity analysis has been carried out and attached in Appendix-1.3 to

establish the need for new 220/132 kV grid stations during this period taking into account

firm capacities i.e. considering N-1 contingency of one transformer out of service. When a

grid station hits the maximum firm capacity, a new grid station is proposed in the same

vicinity or extension/augmentations are proposed if space to accommodate more

transformers is available (4 transformers are taken as the maximum number of transformers

at one grid station). Based on this analysis, following are the new 220/132 kV grid stations to

be added in the system during this period

8.1.4 New Transmission Lines for System Reinforcements Required for Normal and N-1 Contingency Conditions: 2021-22 to 2025-26

In addition to the new lines added in the system for evacuation of power from new power

plants and for making connections with the new 500/220/kV and 220/132 kV grid stations,

additional new lines are required to keep the loading on the circuits within the permissible

limits under normal as well as N-1 contingency conditions. The details of such additional

lines to be added in this period are as below:

Year Line kV Type

2022 Mardan-Faisalabad -West 500kV D/C

2022 Ludewala-Faisalabad -West 500kV D/C

2023 Sialkot-New to Sialkot (Sahuwala) 220 kV 2 x D/C

8.1.5 Augmentations and Extensions at 500/220 kV and 220/132 kV Grid

In addition to adding the new grid stations of 500/220 kV and 220/132 kV discussed above,

the capacities of already existing grid stations were enhanced by Augmentations and

Extensions. The Augmentations and Extensions at 500/220 kV for this period are as follows:

Year Substation Voltage Size Type

2022 Ludewala 500/220 1x750 MVA Extension

2022 Multan 500/220 3x1000 MVA Augmentation

2022 Islamabad-West 500/220 1x750 MVA Extension

2023 Lahore-South 500/220 3x1000 MVA Augmentation

2023 Gujranwala (Gakhar) 500/220 2x750 MVA Augmentation

2022 D. G. Khan 500/220 2x750 MVA Augmentation

2024 Lahore-North 500/220 1x1000 MVA Extension

2025 Faisalabad -West 500/220 3x1000 MVA Augmentation

2022 Sh. Mohammadi (Peshawar) 500/220 3x750 MVA Augmentation

2022 Vehari 500/220 1x750 MVA Extension

2023 Gatti 500/220 4x750 MVA Augmentation

2023 Lahore Old (Sheikhupura) 500/220 4x750 MVA Augmentation

2024 Sahiwal 500/220 1x750 MVA Extension

2022 Shikarpur 500/220 2x750 MVA Augmentation

2025 Shikarpur 500/220 1x750 MVA Extension

2022 Dadu 500/220 2x750 MVA Augmentation

2025 Dadu 500/220 1x750 MVA Extension

2025 Gujranwala (Gakhar) 500/220 1x750 MVA Extension

2025 D.G. Khan 500/220 1x750 MVA Extension

It can be seen that most of the existing old 500 kV grid stations such as Multan Gatti,

Lahore-Old, Peshawar (Sh. Mohammadi)) and Dadu, have been augmented with new higher

capacity of multiples of 750 MVA or 1000 MVA transformers.

The extensions and augmentation at 220/132 kV grid stations are based on the load

capacity analysis (Appendix-1.3). There are forty eight (48) grid stations of 220/132 kV

where either extension or augmentation has been carried out as listed in detail in Appendix

10.2.




The transmission scheme discussed above was evolved on the basis of load capacity

analysis and detailed load flow analysis carried out for high hydel (low thermal) and low

water (high thermal) conditions for normal (N-0) and contingency (N-1) conditions

respectively.

The study results with connectivity of all the new 500kV and 220 kV grid stations and new

transmission lines proposed for this period have been plotted and attached for HW and LW

seasons in Appendix-4.1 and 4.2 respectively:

Normal (N-0) cases:

Load flow results of normal cases i.e. with no circuits out of service, are attached as follows:


Exhibit-2025-HW-2.0 Results of Southern System of 500 kV


Exhibit-2025-HW-4.0 Results of Mid-Country System of 220 kV

Exhibit-2025-HW-5.0 Results of Southern System of 220 kV

Exhibit-2026-LW-1.0 Results of Southern System of 500 kV



Exhibit-2026-LW-4.0 Results of Mid-Country System of 220 kV

Exhibit-2026-LW-5.0 Results of Southern System of 220 kV

Due to congestion in the drawings, the plotted results of 220 kV network are separated from

500 kV network and divided in 3 parts each for Northern system, Mid-Country system and

Southern system.

The results indicate the same pattern of power flows as in the previous spot years of study

i.e. heavier flows in Northern circuits of 500 kV and 220 kV during HW season and relatively

lighter flows on Southern grid; and vice versa during LW season. The voltages at 500 kV and

220 kV on the entire NTDC system from North to South are within the normal permissible

limits. The power flows on the lines of 500 kV and 220 kV and 500/220kV and 220/132 kV

transformers are also within their rated limits.




The automatic contingency analysis (ACCC) for 220 kV network has been carried out which

indicated some violations requiring reinforcement of the network as described above in

section 8.1.4 With the proposed reinforcements the violations of voltage and line loadings

were eliminated.

Because of the power flow pattern causing more loading on lines on a seasonal basis, the

one-line-out contingency cases of 500 kV system have been carried out for the Northern

system (HW season being the season for heavy loading) whereas for the Southern system

the outages have been performed on LW season respectively due to heavier loading during

LW season..

The normal and N-1 contingency load flow results of 500 kV indicate that the proposed

transmission expansion scheme of 500 kV during 2021-22 and 2025-26, fulfills the criteria of

the Grid Code. The power flows on the intact circuits of 500 kV and 500/220 kV transformers

for each outage are within the limits. The voltage profile on all 500 kV bus bars is also within

the permissible criteria.

The above analysis establishes the fact that the proposed expansion scheme of 500 kV and

220 kV network till 2025-26 is adequate fulfilling the criteria of the Grid Code under normal

and N-1 contingency conditions.




The major generation additions during the period from 2026-27 to 2029-30, include major

blocks of coal-fired power plants at Thar coal fields, nuclear plants and a few hydel and

thermal power plants across the Indus river and mid country respectively. The major plants

are as follows:



Power Plants Type Installed Capacity, MW Commissioning

Year Tungas Hydro 2000 2026-27 Yulbo Hydro 2400 2026-27 D. I. Khan CC 1414 2026-27 Thar Coal 6000 2027-28 PAEC (Karachi) Nuclear 1000 2027-28 Thar Coal 4800 2028-29 Chashma Nuclear 1000 2028-29 Thar Coal 6000 2029-30 Balloki CC 1414 2029-30 Wind Power(Total) Wind 1600 2026-30

Some old power plants have been considered retired between the period 2016 and 2030 as

proposed in the Generation Expansion Plan as follows:
