  2. Indian Power Sector • Power in Concurrent list : • Both Central and State Governments have jurisdiction • Power Sector in States • Vertically integrated State Electricity Boards (being restructured) • Central Public Sector Undertakings • Own 30% of the capacity

  3. Growth of the Indian Power Sector • Generating capacity has grown manifold from 1712 MW in 1950 to more than 108,000 MW today. • The growth in the transmission lines has been from 2708 ckm in 1950 to more than 200,000 ckm today. • About 84% of 587,000 villages have been electrified, balance to be electrified by 2007. • 55% households have access to Electricity, balance to be covered by 2012.

  4. Present scenario - the challenge • Financial health of SEBs Business as usual continues Results targeted Losses (Rs. Cr.) Years Contd. ..

  5. Present scenario - the challengeContd. ….. • Power : removing shortages and improving Reliability & Quality Results targeted Peaking Shortage % Installed Capacity 108,000 MW 146,000 MW 212,000 MW

  6. POWER SECTOR DEVELOPMENT OBJECTIVES STRATEGY ACTION • Sufficient power for 8% growth Generation Transmission • Reliable power Distribution • Quality power Regulation • Inexpensive power Financing Conservation • Commercial viability Communication • Power to All Legislative initiatives

  15. Conservation # STRATEGY • Demand Side management • Load management • Technology upgradation to provide energy efficient equipment / gadgets.

  16. # ACTION • Bureau of Energy Efficiency. • Notified industries. • Interface with IEEMA & other Industry Bodies. • Awareness. • Demand Side Management • Specifications / Labelling / Norms • Certification agency. • Energy audit. • 25,000 MW saving potential to be achieved by 2012.

  17. Communication • Political consensus. • Public Awareness • Media support

  18. Legislative • Electricity Act, 2003 - notified on 10th June ‘03 : • Creates liberal framework for power development • Facilitates private investment • Delicenses generation : Captive further liberalised • Multiple licencess in Distribution • Creates competitive environment • Stringent provisions for controlling theft of electricity • Empowers States to restructure Electricity Boards • Mandates creation of Regulatory Commissions • Open access on Transmission & Distribution • Power marketing / trading

  19. The way forward • Reforms leading to commercialization of Distribution sector • Sector viability in medium / long term to support investments • Decentralized distribution / generation for electrification of rural areas • Streamlined / exemption in clearance procedures along with delegation to States • Amicable project specific R&R packages • Public sector investments have been stepped up during transition period • Funding for Generation (Hydro & Thermal), Transmission and Rural Electrification • The Sectoral development should now get the boost with confidence and cooperation of Promotors, Investors and Financial Institutions
