  2. POWER SECTOR REFORMS AND INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY

  3. Agenda • 2012 POWER SECTOR BUDGET • BUDGET EXPECTATIONS • Need for Reforms • Reforms in Power Sector • BUDGET MEASURE • Regulations • Impact • Role of IT • System Overview

  4. 2012 POWER SECTOR BUDGET • Over the past few quarters, the power sector has seen hard times given the severe liquidity crunch that hit existing as well as new projects. And as such, the sector once again saw capacity addition that was way below the targets set out as part of the XIth Five Year Plan. While the situation on the funding side has improved considerably since the middle of 2008, companies are stepping up on new projects with utmost caution. This is especially given that linkage for fuel (especially coal and gas) is becoming a tough nut to crack. However, rural electrification continues to get a boost in each passing budget and so is the improvement in the T&D network. Budget 2011 was no different, as it allocated higher funds for the development of the power sector with a view of speeding up the expansion of new generation capacities

  5. BUDGET EXPECTATIONS

  6. Need for Reforms • Objective of integrated National Grid • 5 regional grids working at varying grid frequency • Integration needs Frequency Normalization means proactive load management • Alternative – Insulation thro’ HVDC links – Expensive • Regional surplus & shortages • Surplus in east and shortage in south • Continued functioning at non-standard grid frequency • Damage to Generator & End User equipment • Hidden cost passed to customer in long term

  7. Need for Reforms(contd…) • Central Vs State Generators • Capital cost Vs Variable cost • Beneficiaries not liable to pay fixed cost for their allocated share if not drawing • Increased cost of energy for beneficiaries drawing energy • Generation even without demand • High grid frequency

  8. Reforms in Power Sector

  9. Objective • Reforms in tariff structure of bulk power • Better system operations • Better grid discipline through commercial incentives & disincentives • Ideal Grid Frequency = 50 Hz

  10. Reforms • Electricity Act 2003 • Replaced Electricity (Supply) Act 1948 • Regulations • Availability Based Tariff (ABT) • Merit Order Dispatch (MOD) • Plant Performance • Energy Management • SEB Trifurcation

  11. Regulations

  12. Availability Based Tariff (ABT) • Deals with tariff structure for bulk power • Performance based tariff for supply based tariff • System of rewards and penalties seeking to enforce day ahead pre-committed schedules (One & One-half hours in advance) • Promote responsibility & accountability in power generation • Paradigm shift from maxpower to maxreliability • A path to deregulated power market

  13. ABT Components • Capacity charges (Fixed) • Payable against declared capacity of station for allocated capacity rather than actual consumption • Full fixed charges payable at PLF of 68.49% • Incentive @ 0.4 % of equity for each percentage increase between 70-85%. Beyond 85% it is 0.3% • Energy charges (Variable) • As per actual consumption • Unscheduled Interchange (UI) charges: Penalty that depends on severity of deviation. Payable/recoverable if: • Generator generates more, thereby increasing frequency; • Generator generates less than the schedule, thereby decreasing frequency; • Beneficiary overdraws power, thereby decreasing frequency; • Beneficiary under draws power, thereby increasing frequency

  14. Merit Order Dispatch • Objective from maximum production to optimal production • Multiple unit power plant to identify optimum loading for each unit to save on operational costs • Identify units to bring online / offline to meet plant demand at minimum operating cost • Dispatching least cost power in preference to more costly power

  15. Holding Company Generation Company Transmission Company Distribution Company Trifurcation • State Electricity Boards (SEBs) trifurcated as shown –

  16. Impact of ABT – TRANSCO • Improved and efficient transmission systems • More generation capacity being added • Bottleneck in transmission to be avoided • Better forecasting systems • Vested with role of coordination between consumers & generators • Better communication and information systems • Communicate 15 min generation & consumption schedule to each party • Convey any unforeseen change in such a schedule • Improved metering & billing system • Ensure adequate metering capabilities for proper implementation of tariff structure • Specialized energy meters that keep track of 15-min energy aggregates & frequency for each interval to take care of energy charges and UI charges

  17. Impact of ABT – GENCO • Advanced control & monitoring systems to closely monitor ex-bus output of plant • Generation should closely follow 15-minute schedule • Integrated information & communication system • To capture data from all components • Unscheduled downtime is not very acceptable in the ABT regime • MOD to ensure economic operation • Cost of generation, ramping, start up & shut down of each unit varies • Performance calculation for each unit of plant • Corresponding optimization to be done • Pro-active management plan • Unscheduled deviation from power generation schedule incur considerable penalties • Unexpected downtime of power plant should not occur

  18. Impact of ABT – DISCOM • Enhanced load forecasting system • Consumer expected to stick to schedule of 96 intervals of 15-minute for each day • Failure to comply will attract penalty - UI charges • Basis of entering into commercial agreements with generating utilities • Reliable communication and information infrastructure • Load forecasting solution highly reliant on historical data for accuracy • To ensure smooth coordination with RLDC • Provision for in-house generation • Captive power plants - going to be more & more popular during transition to decentralized & deregulated power market

  19. Efficiency Input Output Minimize Cost Maximize Returns Business Objective • To generate & export electricity • Maximize output at lowest input • Maximizing returns require following ABT demand curve

  20. Company ABT, Energy Management Power Plants Merit Order Dispatch Units Plant Performance Regulations – Organization Mapping

  21. ABT Regime • Revenue calculation for GENCO depends on • Available capacity of plant • Implemented schedule • Grid Frequency • Actual energy export • Applicable tariff model • To maximize revenue & minimize input cost • Generation to closely follow demand schedule • Optimal loading of plant units

  22. Role of IT • Monitor various online real-time plant parameters from different generating stations • Establish a full-fledged Generation Control Room for performance diagnosis & optimization • Provide suitable connectivity between each power station & Control Room

  23. IT Solution
