4. Foreign Investment
1. Load Shedding - Four Primary Causes
A Scheduled Load Shedding (LS) Policy is in place across the KESC network (covering whole of Karachi and parts of Baluchistan & SIndh – 6500 square km area – approx. 18 million people)
2. Fuel 1. Demand & Scheduled LS Policy*
24/7 exemption to all six major industrial zones + strategic customers (KWSB, etc)
…but there are occasional Unscheduled Outages as well due to any of the following equipment failure across the network**:

For residential customers, no LS between 1:30am and 9:00am daily and during Friday prayers; otherwise:3 x 1 hr fixed timings daily

Faults
* compared to an average 6-7 hours of unscheduled load shedding last summer** nonetheless, 99% of Industrial Customers were provided uninterrupted power supply, and 97% of Residential &Commercial Customers were load shed as per above Policy – August 2010 statistics
1.1 Load Shedding - Demand & Supply Gap (MW)…has reduced considerably over the past 2 years, as new power units have come on line, which has helped us maintain a Scheduled LS Policy across the system , but there’s often a difference between Installed Capacity and Available Capacity in any given hour due to a variety of reasons beyond our control; such as low gas volume and pressure, furnace oil supply disruption, technical faults, scheduled

1.2 Load Shedding - Fuel Supply Constraints We burn two types of fuel: natural gas from SSGC and furnace oil from PSO. Any shortage of fuel (especially volume/pressure of
natural gas) means that we’re often unable to run our generating plants at full capacity, leading to scheduled & unscheduled outages

Myth Reality1 KESC determines the consumer tariff 1 NEPRA (Regulator) determines our tariff under a fixed1. KESC determines the consumer tariff
unilaterally, at its discretion…1. NEPRA (Regulator) determines our tariff under a fixed
formula agreed at privatization in Nov 2005
GOP decides what % of NEPRA determined tariff ispassed onto consumers as “Consumer Tariff”. Theremainder is paid to KESC by GOP as “ConsumerS b id ” A th GOP i l d thSubsidy”. As the GOP progressively reduces theConsumer Subsidy, the Consumer Tariff goes upaccordingly
NEPRA / GOP determines the different tariff rates &slabs for various categories of consumers –residential (lowest), industrial, commercial(highest), etc.

Myth Reality3 We claim tariff increases on account of 3 Fuel & power purchase cost is a straight “pass3. We claim tariff increases on account of

3. Fuel & power purchase cost is a straight “passthrough” item under our tariff formula. During the lastfiscal year (July ‘09 – June ‘10), there was an increase in theprice of:
Furnace Oil: Rs 28,000 to Rs 51,000 per tonp ypass on the benefit to consumers, etc… Natural Gas: Rs 350 to Rs 394 per MMBTU
IPP (Tapal): Rs 6.6 to Rs 11.8 per KWh
WAPDA: Rs 6.2 to Rs 9 per KWh
Directly/Indirectly burnt approx. 197,000 tons (35%)Directly/Indirectly burnt approx. 197,000 tons (35%)more furnace oil during the last fiscal year comparedto the previous fiscal year (because of reduced gassupply)
Furnace oil is 2.5 times more expensive than naturalgasgas
Every 25 MMCFD reduction in gas increases tariff by50 paisa per unit on average
Reduced gas supply not only increases consumertariff (monthly price adjustment) but also de-rates ourtariff (monthly price adjustment) but also de rates ouravailable plant capacity and reliability

manufacturers, and actually slow down with age until replaced with more accurate devices. For billing complaints, customers have recourse to the Federal Ombudsman, Courts, NEPRA, etc in addition to the CEO Task Force. It is strictly against our Policy to “over charge” our customers in any mannercharge our customers in any manner
SC’ ff ffAs a utility company, it is in KESC’s own interest to keep the electricity tariff as affordable as possible. Thereality, however, is that the current tariff formula does not compensate us for the actual cost of operating and maintainingthe utility, nor does it incentivize the shareholders/lenders to inject more capital to finance new power plants, gridstations, etc to meet long term demand. These structural flaws in the tariff formula ought to be addressed now to take careof the future. In the meanwhile, and simultaneously, to keep the tariff affordable (and reduce load shed), we need 300y p ( )MMCFD of gas now (+ 130 MMCFD for the upcoming 560MW plant next year), or equivalent furnace oil @ gas price, orconsumer tariff subsidy regime to continue. Long term solution lies in setting up coal plants (indigenous or imported).

Circular Debt/Strategic Customers
KESC is suffering from severe working capital constraints due to accumulated receivables of Rs. 49.32billion from the GOP, federal and provincial government bodies and other sovereign entities including“Strategic Customers”
This is despite the fact that the Implementation Agreement (IA) contains an explicit and unequivocalThis is despite the fact that the Implementation Agreement (IA) contains an explicit and unequivocalcommitment on the part of the GOP, acting through the Ministry of Finance (MOF), to make payment ofall amounts due and owing from identified Strategic Customers for the supply of power
Karachi Water & Sewerage Board (KWSB):
KESC’s liquidity is significantly hampered due to nonpayment of these receivables particularly Rs.10.91 billion which is outstanding from KWSB
Despite repeated attempts by KESC to obtain payment from both KWSB and the MOF, thecommitment of the GOP under the IA remains unfulfilled
KESC has even accepted the principal that its claims against KWSB and others may be set off/paiddirectly against what KESC itself owes to other state owned entitiesdirectly against what KESC itself owes to other state-owned entities.
– This principal was also agreed and committed to by the GOP, and is clearly expressed in theminutes of the Economic Coordination Committee (ECC) appended as Schedule 1 to the IA
– Those minutes contain an explicit best efforts commitment to set off the amounts due fromKWSB within 60 days of the date of signing of the IA. However, to date, this commitmenty g g , ,remains unfulfilled
The GOP also committed to ensuring that the MOF would clear all dues from Federal agencies andoffices immediately. While some of these dues have been paid, other amounts remain outstanding
Even as sustained performance improvements are becoming evident at KESC, a number of external factors continue to hamper the utility’s operational and financial health
Support Required (2/3)
Tariff Issues
The GOP committed (under Article 10.2(a) of the IA) to supporting and assisting KESC in the filing ofnew tariff petitions with NEPRA, including petitions to rationalize and restructure the existing “multi-year tariff” (MYT). The GOP also committed to the timely notification of all NEPRA determinations (i.e.within 30 days of determination) under Article 7.1 of the IA
KESC filed both a detailed tariff petition (dated May 2009) and a subsequent motion for review (datedJanuary 2010) seeking certain adjustments and changes to the MYT
– Despite repeated requests to the GOP, no support or assistance has been forthcoming from therelevant Ministry for either the petition or the motion for review.
– Similarly, there have been significant delays to the notification of certain NEPRA determinationsfor fuel surcharge adjustments or quarterly adjustments in the tariff
Furthermore, the IA and appended ECC decisions committed the GOP to ensuring that NEPRA wouldallow KESC to recover costs of PKR 5.93 billion suffered by KESC as a result of the delay in notifyingthe removal of the 4% cap on quarterly tariff adjustmentsp q y j
– The ECC decision on this matter is included in the IA (under Schedule 1, clause 2.1(q)). Despitethe existence of a clear decision from the ECC, NEPRA has refused to allow KESC to recoverthis amount even though other DISCOs are given the same benefit
The GOP committed to provide support and assistance to KESC for a number of other mattersOther Matters
affecting the company under Article 10.2 of the IA. These included:
– Assistance in obtaining rights of way (“ROW”) for new transmission and distribution lines
– Applications to the Federal Government or Government of Sindh for conclusive land titledocuments
However, many critical applications for ROW continue to be delayed, and these delays have held upcompletion of key projects including the Model Towns improvement projects
Similarly, KESC has received no support in its endeavor to obtain conclusive title documents for certainof its key properties, including properties on which KESC has or intends to build new power plants

Gas Supply
Existing Allocation
Against an official allocation of 276 MMCFD, SSGC has reduced KESC’s gas supply by over 30% (176MMCFD in the Jan-Aug 2010 versus 237 MMCFD in the Jan-June 2009).
At t l i l 199 MMCFD M i id d d h b i ithAt present, gas supply is only 199 MMCFD. Moreover, gas is provided on an ad-hoc basis with nominimum volume or pressure requirements. This is leading to
– Tripping of power units
– Increased use of furnace oil (FO), which impacts the tariff (FO is 2.5x more expensive than gas)
Future Allocation
SSGC has shown resistance in providing KESC with additional gas for the upcoming 560 MW CCPP
In the ECC decision (July 2008), the GOP committed to provide its full support to KESC for allocationof an additional 130 MMCFD for the new plant
– Construction of the plant is already in advanced stages, but no action has been taken by theGOP with respect to the promised additional gas allocation
Gas Supply Agreement (GSA):
GOP assistance and support was committed to ensure that a commercially acceptable GSA would bei d b t SSGC d KESC D it t d t SSGC h t d d t KESCsigned between SSGC and KESC. Despite repeated requests, SSGC has not responded to KESC on
