Abstract
The exploration of the failure factor of wind turbine power projects in Sindh Pakistan is the major concerns of the dynamic changing behavior in the wind generation industry of Pakistan. Pakistan is nascent in the wind turbine power generation with limited numbers of plants in operational. Execution in the coastal area with changing behavior of seasonal effect destroy the synchronism of work breakdown structure and effect the fate of the project. The project faced the issues of cost-overrun, time slippage and barrier in communication which lead towards project failure. After identification this problem, the jury School of Professional Advancement decided to allocate the research topic “Exploration of the failure factor of wind turbine power project in Sindh Pakistan” as a final year project. Research considering the failure factors in the perspective of project management body of knowledge areas, and coastal infrastructure and environmental. Sampling frame of the study is the Wind turbine power projects in Sind of Pakistan. The unit of analysis is the individual experts of wind turbine energy sector. All plants are normally similar with respect to the product (generation of electricity), processes and procedures. The researcher found the five dominant factor which have strong relation with project failure. (1-poor coordination, 2-poor progress tracking, 3-unrealistic budget estimates, 4- non concrete funding resources, 5-lack of communication). Recommendation after exploring failure factors are, PMI RACI tool can be used to overcome the poor coordination, Earned Value Management System can be used for good progress tracking, Top down and Bottom up budget estimation approach can be used for realistic budget estimation, project funding requirement tool can be solved funding resources problem and communication management plan is used to overcome the lack of communication in wind turbine power projects.
