Pakistan programs / Pakistan project 391-0478 · 1984–1995 · energy · Gilbert/Commonwealth International, Inc.
PACR of a project (7/83-7/93) to develop Pakistan's indigenous energy resources and increase the efficiency of energy use. The project was generally successful. Major institution-building outputs have been achieved, and many project activities are being sustained by the newly created or enhanced institutions. The Energy Policy, Planning, and Manpower Development component established an Energy Wing in the Ministry of Planning and Development. The functions of the Energy Wing have been clearly spelled out, staff have been well-trained (more than 30 candidates were sent to the United States for M.S. training and more than 150 for short-term training), and computers have been installed and an energy database established. The Wing has already completed a number of important studies and has taken the lead in preparing Pakistan's Five Year Energy Plans. In the area of Indigenous Resource Assessment and Development, the most important accomplishment was the discovery of a major coal deposit in the Thar desert, estimated to contain about 80 billion tons of coal -- 8 times the size of previously known resources and sufficient to support several thousand MW of power generation.

When the program ran, from its start year to the latest document year. A hatched bar means the start is our estimate.
Axis: award years, end from years in documents. The start year comes from award fiscal year; the end is the latest document year, so the program may have run longer.
