PROJECT DESCRIPTION (DE)
Initial situation:
Pakistan's Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) to climate protection as of October 2021 stipulate that the country's greenhouse gas emissions should be reduced by 15 percent compared to 2015. The energy sector aims to make its contribution by increasing the proportion of energy from renewable sources. It is currently 30 percent (25 percent of which comes from hydropower, 5.4 percent is wind and solar energy or is generated from biomass). This share is to be increased to 60 percent by 2030. This leads to numerous technical challenges for electricity grid operators. Above all, expertise is required to develop methods that can be used to forecast how much electricity is generated from renewable sources in different areas. This will ensure grid access for energy from renewable sources without compromising grid stability or causing major power outages.
Objective:
The key players in the energy industry have implemented legal and digital solutions to facilitate the energy transition.
Approach:
The project supports the energy transition with the following measures:
1. Support the institutions in the Pakistani energy industry in implementing legal regulations and provisions as well as strategies for the expansion of renewable energies.
2. Implement a training and further education program for network operators and other institutions in the energy industry. The project aims to pass on the necessary specialist knowledge and the necessary digital skills so that an overall concept for the integration of electricity from renewable sources into the grid can be developed.
3. Implement technical measures in sel
