Potential and Issue
• Sindh wind corridor realizable capacity ‐ over ~10 GW
• Tariff lowered to 6.7 – 7 $c/kWh – comparable to any
technology
• Potential for Local industry growth
– Tower manufacturing,
– Blade and nacelle assembly
– Services sector
– Allied component supplies
• However, Grid Evacuation Capacity is limiting factor
• Grid enhancement projects underway ‐ New Projects
expected as and when new allocations are available

Conclusion of Study
Results & Benefits
• Pattern of wind & solar resources is conducive for hybrid
• Hybrid Solar assist in smoothing variations in Wind output
• 25 – 40 MW Solar Plant for 50 MW Wind Plant Possible
• ~ 600 MW Solar PV Plants can be installed by next year
• Increased grid utilization factor – from 33% to 48%
• No additional grid infrastructure enhancement needed
• Reduction in overall per unit O&M cost of grid
• Addition of electricity at tariffs lower to overall basket price
• Addition of battery storage viability expected in 2 – 3 years
Has any one done it?
M/s Hero Future Energies on April 13, 2018 inaugurated a
28.5 MW Solar PV Plant at its 50 MW Wind Power Plant in
Karnataka, India under similar Grid Restriction Arrangement
Progress & Way forward
• Concept has been approved in principle by AEDB and has
issued LOIs to interested investors
• FFC has submitted its Feasibility study to AEDB which is
under review for approval
• Suitable Upfront tariff for such hybrid Solar PV Projects
shall provide stimuli for quick deployment as;
– No new grid planning / grid development needed
– Quick installation within 8 – 10 months possible
