- Pakistan: Results of ADB-supported Operations
Results of ADB-supported Operations: Pakistan
As Pakistan's biggest multilateral development partner, ADB has assisted the country's government in undertaking critical economic and governance reforms.
Over the years, Pakistan and ADB have been working together to help millions of families travel new roads where none before existed, light their homes from cleaner power generation, live healthier and longer lives through expanding clean water and sanitation programs, and send their youngsters to school for the first time because of greater access to education. Moreover, ADB has providejavascript:Drupal.ckeditorToggle('edit-body','Switch to plain text editor','Switch to rich text editor',1);d emergency assistance to help Pakistan cope with major natural disasters.
This country brief summarizes how the partnership between the Government of Pakistan and ADB has contributed to the development of the country.

The table includes operations completed during the period, and funded by ADB's ordinary capital resources, special fund resources, which include the Asian Development Fund and other special funds, cofinanciers, and the government. The results presented are limited to ADB's core sectors, as defined under Strategy 2020 and tracked through indicators in the ADB Results Framework. ADB monitors results achievement in the annual Development Effectiveness Review. The numbers represent the sum of outputs and beneficiaries of individual projects. Therefore, the beneficiary numbers reported under education—teachers trained, and students benefitting from school improvement programs or direct support—include those who benefited from more than one project.

Installed energy generation capacity between 2004-2011: 1,450 megawatt equivalent
The indicator, given in megawatt (MW) equivalent is the total incremental generating capacity of a generation project. This may be power sourced from renewable technology or from conventional sources e.g., oil, coal, or large hydro. A project may involve construction of a new power plant or simply acquisition of an asset, e.g., the private sector acquiring a government-owned coal plant. This includes the MW-equivalent capacity of additional heating supply as well as hydrocarbon-based energy added through production or additional import capacity. Energy export is excluded from Level 2 measurement as it does not add to the energy resources of a country.

Transmission lines installed or upgraded between 2004-2011: 452 kilometers
The indicator covers power, gas, and oil transmission lines. It is the measure of the ground distance, in kilometers, traversed by the transmission line. For power transmission lines, we are looking for the simple distance from tower A to tower B and not the circuit-kilometers.

New households connected to electricity between 2004-2011: 280,846
The indicator is the number of new households connected to the grid. Only new household connections resulting from a project are counted; households already connected to the grid and receiving improved services through a project are not counted. The number of new household connections resulting from a project is counted in total and not proportional to the ADB funding component only. The guiding principle is that ADB assistance is integral to the completion of the entire project; without the ADB assistance, the total target household connections would not be attained.

Greenhouse gas emission reduction between 2004-2011: 6,878,750 tons of carbon dioxide equivalent per year
A proxy emission factor is to be used for developing Asia (countries where ADB may implement projects), which is 793.73 tons of carbon dioxide (CO2) per gigawatt-hour (GWh). This proxy factor is to be used to calculate emission reduction/ avoidance accruing from the projects, i.e., GWh generated using renewable energy, and GWh saved through efficiency improvement.
