Use of 'Technology' as solution for energy crisis.


Well everybody knows that Pakistan is passing through a critical situation due to energy crisis; this is not only portraying a negative effect on the economy of the Pakistan but it’s ruining the country’s image worldwide. So, due to energy crisis both the agriculture and industry sector are collapsing so badly. As we all know that Pakistan is a developing country and naturally it’s enrich with the fertile soil, this country could produce enough to stable the country’s economy as well as GDP growth but there should be proper policies and upgraded technology.

As we all know that Pakistan is a developing country so more work is carried out in the agriculture sector, but this primary and most important sector of the country is still affected by the energy crises, the past government did not come with any new technology to promote this sector. The most important energy technology which could help this sector is solar energy. The basic need for agriculture is a tube well for irrigation, farmers those who usually use tube well for irrigation purpose they had an electricity problem we can avoid such problems by fixing solar energy panels to tube well for the effective and efficient production.

We all know that there are large numbers of mills are located in this country for example steel mills, rice mill, sugar mills and so many other, let’s talk about sugar mills, their waste (Bagasse) is one the cheaper renewable fuel to generate electricity so each and every mill owner should fix their own plant to generate the electricity for their own sugar plant. The government of Pakistan should take another step to attract the sugary industry owners to setup co-generation Bagasse/Biomass technology based power plants. Not only sugar mills but also rice husking mill, food processing center, livestock farm or from where ever we are getting the bio-waste. Government should start inventing, importing or introducing such technology to the country and ask mill owners/ bio-waste producer to install such machinery to adopt new techniques of producing electricity.

Energy crises are increasing day by day, annually large percentage of MW is increasing but the past government has failed to meet up the expected requirement.  PPP and PML-N policies regarding electricity production were not good enough those could help us out us from such crises, so we need a serious government about solving these energy crises and that is PTI. Their policies regarding energy crises are typical but we had a hope from them that they would do something for this country. Hydel energy, installing wind turbines in Sindh and Balochistan region which would help us in producing large number of electricity, gas pipelines (between Pakistan, Iran, Turkmenistan, Afghanistan and India), the most important is Thar coal project which would give definite extensive electricity with an effective cost and the China’s nuclear project. These are the main sources from where Pakistan can earn the large number of MW and such policies are PTI’s main priority.
