Pehur Powerhouse Swabi

Name of Project: 18 MW Pehur Hydropower Complex (PHPC)

 

Location: Industrial Estate Gadoon Amazai Swabi

 

Introduction of the Project:

Pehur Hydropower Project (PHPP) is located in the Swabi District approximately 1 km south of Gadoon Industrial Estate which is situated at a distance of about 5 km from village Topi in northern direction.

The idea of PHPP was conceived in 1993 during feasibility of the PHLC Project. However the detail Feasibility Study of Pehur HPP was conducted in 2000-01 and found the project technically feasible, economically viable and environment friendly.

Pehur Hydropower Project is an independent component of the Pehur High Level Canal (PHLC) Project, which is located on the right bank of Indus River immediately downstream of Tarbela reservoir. Gandaf Pressure tunnel is the major component of PHLC Project, which off takes from Tarbela reservoir at an elevation of 393.20 m above sea level. Since the highest and lowest water retention levels of the Tarbela reservoir fluctuate between EL 473 m and 396 m above sea level hence offers a considerable hydropower potential at the downstream end of Gandaf tunnel.

Two turbines with a design head of 68 m will be used during high head range and one turbine with a design head of 44 m will be used for the lower head range. In this option 85% of the available power potential and discharge can be utilized. The total installed capacity is 18 MW and the average annual energy output is estimated as 57.7 GWh with a plant factor of about 41%.

The Pehur Hydropower Project is a secondary and supplementary project of the Pehur High level Canal Irrigation scheme and thus constructed with a considerable low cost. Since most of the civil works and infrastructure involved for the hydropower production including intake structure, water conveyance facilities to powerhouse, energy dissipater and disposal channel was readily available as components of PHLC Project.  Therefore the Govt. of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa had decided to implement the project in public sector.
