  3. Background • Power is a commodity which cannot be stored. It has to be utilised as and when it is produced. • Power is generated by the generating stations, transported through the transmission lines, and supplied to the end user by the distribution system. • As power cannot be stored, efforts have to be made for the efficient utilisation of the power system and bridge the surplus-deficit gap. • Thus, the concept of sale and purchase of power through various modes came into existence.

  4. Terminology • Power is measured in Watt. • One Unit of power constitutes 1000 Watts supplied for One Hour. This constitutes to 1 kWH (One Kilo Watt Hour). • One Mega Watt (MW) = 1000 kW • It is also often referred in terms of Million Units (MUs) = 10,00,000 units.

  5. What is Open Access? The Electricity Act 2003 defines open access as follows: "Open access means the non-discriminatory provision for the use of transmission lines or distribution system or associated facilities with such lines or system by any licensee or consumer or a person engaged in generation in accordance with the regulations specified by the Appropriate Commission.''

  6. Open Access can be granted in case of- • Surplus power of State Generating Companies. • Surplus power of State Power Utilities of the State and other Distribution Licensees. • Sale of Unallocated / Surrendered Power of Central Sector Generating Companies. • Un-requisitioned power of CSGS. • Merchandise Power Plants. • Captive Power Plants for their own use. • Surplus power of CPPs (Captive or Co-gen)/ IPPs. • Collective transactions through exchange. • Purchase of power by a consumer. • Renewable power with limitation on scheduling.

  7. Salient Features of Open Access • Commercial mechanism for transmission pricing for long , medium and short term open access including UI and transactions through exchange. • Approval of open access for the desired quantum and period of supply. • Non-discriminatory open access. • Freedom for scheduling of power. • Freedom to revise the open access or cancellation thereof. • Policies could be different for ‘Advance Scheduling’, ‘Day-ahead Scheduling’ or ‘Booking of Open access’, as the case may be. • Freedom to market that could boost the growth. • Appropriate settlement mechanism.

  8. Electricity Act - 2003 It was framed in the wake of: • Growing Power needs • Continuous Surplus-Shortage conditions faced in various parts of the country.

  9. Types of Open Access • Long Term Open Access. (LTOA) [3 to 12 years] • Medium Term Open Access. (MTOA) [3 months to 3 years] • Short Term Open Access. (STOA) [up to 3 months]

  11. Governing Bodies • State Load Dispatch Centers (SLDC) • Regional Load Dispatch Centers (RLDC) • National Load Dispatch Center (NLDC) • State Electricity Regulatory Commissions (SERC) • Central Electricity Regulatory Commission (CERC) • Regional Power Committee (RPC) • Regional Energy Authority (REA) • Central Energy Authority (CEA) • Power Ministry, Govt. of India

  12. Regulatory Commissions The Regulatory Commission remains the most important organization in the electricity sector after the enactment of the Electricity Act,2003.The new law distances Government from regulation and transfers all regulatory responsibilities to independent Regulatory Commissions. The Regulatory Commissions are omnipresent across the wide range of activities envisaged for the sector. They have the powers to fix tariff, grant license, regulate the performance of the licensees, adjudicate upon disputes, regulate the phasing out of Open Access in distribution and determine Open access surcharge etc.
