Dear Students,

A race run, success in the exams, a dream job landed, a new home, a big promotion, a little victory and alike, it is all one of life’s great joys to see someone you know accomplish what they’ve been hoping for and working towards.

In all, seeing someone to succeed in their professional exams is of paramount pleasure owing to the fact that success in exams lays down the ladder for achieving all goals with exactitude.

In this perspective of celebrating the jubilance of our recent results of CS Exams, December 2018 session. This message is a perfect way to honour our students, who accomplished success in the exams.

I would also entreat the students, who could not make their way to the next level in this session of exams, to not to lose hope and to be better equipped for the upcoming session of exams in June 2019.

Friends, never forget that Success is the result of perfection, hard work, learning from failure, loyalty, and persistence. Failure could never overtake us, if our determination to succeed is strong enough.

The recent instance of triumph through strong determinations and hard work is certainly where Securities and Exchange Board of India has reposed confidence in the profession for endorsing Secretarial Audit under the LODR Regulations through a Compliance Reporting Mechanism.

This recent feather to our golden cap reminds me of the great lines tendered by Shri Maithili

Sharan Gupt Jee, where he states ‘संभलो कि सुयोग न जाय चला, िब व्यर्थ हुआ सदपुाय भला’. (Be aware of perfect good time to take actions on your goals and be assured of the good results of good deeds)

Indeed, in this contemporary phase where good governance comes as a priority attainment for New India, 2022, I am sure that our dedication and hard work in serving the society with the best practices of good governance would also drive triumph through our future generations too, that is through YOU.

Last, but not the least, सुशासन िे पर् पर जब देश हमारा अग्रसर है; झुिने ना देंगे देश िो, रुिने ना देंगे देश िो, हर िायथ हमारा तत्पर है. Regards

The Power Sector of India- An Overview and Critical Facets

Introduction

Energy has been universally recognized as one of the most important inputs for economic growth and human development. There is a strong two-way relationship between economic development and energy consumption. On one hand, growth of an economy, with its global competitiveness, hinges on the availability of cost-effective and environmentally benign energy sources, and on the other hand, the level of economic development has been observed to be reliant on the energy demand.

Power is one of the most critical components of infrastructure crucial for the economic growth and welfare of nations. The existence and development of adequate infrastructure is essential for sustained growth of the Indian economy.

India’s power sector is one of the most diversified in the world. Sources of power generation range from conventional sources such as coal, lignite, natural gas, oil, hydro and nuclear power to viable non-conventional sources such as wind, solar, and agricultural and domestic waste. Electricity demand in the country has increased rapidly and is expected to rise further in the years to come. In order to meet the increasing demand for electricity in the country, massive addition to the installed generating capacity is required.

In May 2018, India ranked 4th in the Asia Pacific region out of 25 nations on an index that measures their overall power. Indian power sector is undergoing a significant change that has redefined the industry outlook. Sustained economic growth continues to drive electricity demand in India. The Government of India’s focus on attaining ‘Power for all’ has accelerated capacity addition in the country. At the same time, the competitive intensity is increasing at both the market and supply sides (fuel, logistics, finances, and manpower). Total installed capacity of power stations in India stood at 346.62 Gigawatt (GW) as of November 2018.

The electricity industry in India has evolved significantly to provide a wide range of opportunities across the value chain, in both, the regulated as well as deregulated businesses. Indian power market is the world’s fifth largest in terms of generation capacity and the third largest in terms of network. The growing demand, network extension and upgradation, reduction in energy intensity, unbundling of supply services and growth of cross-border trade present various opportunities for this industry.

Power Performance

The performance of Indian power sector may be comprehended by perusing the following crucial points:

1. Indian power sector has had eventful developments in not only generation and transmission capacity addition, but also from the distribution reforms aspect. The total installed power generation capacity of India as on 31 March 2018 was 344 GW, of which 45% is contributed by the private sector.

e-bulletin - March 2019 3

2. The major growth has been witnessed in renewable source with capacity reaching to 69,022 MW (growth of 20%). During FY18, renewable capacity surpassed conventional sector addition to the total generation capacity. The energy generation observed 6.1% growth to reach at 1,203 Bn Units as compared to previous year’s generation of 1134 Bn Units. Transmission capacity addition was 23,119 ckms as against a target of 23,086 ckms. However, despite the capacity addition in generation and transmission there was a slight increase in the peak deficit situation from 1.6% to 2.0% during FY18. The Energy deficit remained constant at 0.7% during FY17 and FY18. The market witnessed higher liquidity and greater depth, with more participants than previous years.

3. On the policy and regulatory front, the Government and Regulatory bodies continued the reform process for improvement in efficiency in various aspects of power supply. Government of India launched “Pradhan Mantri Sahaj Bijli Har Ghar Yojana (SAUBHAGYA)” to achieve universal household electrification in the country. Under UDAY scheme for financial and operational improvement of Discoms, bonds have been issued by various States for a total amount of Rs 2,321.6 billion. Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (MNRE) launched competitive bidding for procurement of power from wind projects and so far bidding for more than 6,000 MW has taken place in four phases.

4. In further development for making coal allocation more transparent, Scheme for Harnessing and Allocating Koyala (Coal) (SHAKTI) was launched through which allocation of linkages for power sector shall be based on auction of linkages or through Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) based on competitive bidding of tariffs except for the State and the Central Power Generating companies, and the exceptions provided in Tariff Policy, 2016. Coal drawal will be permitted against valid Long Term PPAs and to be concluded Medium Term PPAs. The sector also witnessed emphasis on transparency through various web/mobile applications and digitization of competitive bidding through MSTC platform for short and medium term power procurement.

5. Government’s thrust on renewable energy with core focus on solar power dominated the power sector in the fiscal year 2018. The government has planned to add 175 GW of renewable energy by 2022 and increase the share of renewable energy to power at 40% by 2030. It is also anticipated that India’s peak demand for power will increase from current level of 153 GW to 226 GW by 2021-22 and 299 GW by 2026-27. Considering the demand projections and likely retirement of 22.7 GW of capacity, total capacity addition of 175 GW, including 47.8 GW of coal-based power projects currently under construction is envisaged in the period 2017 to 2022. Similarly, for the period 2022 to 2027, another 175 GW of capacity addition and retirement of 25 GW have been envisaged.

It is heartening to note that the Index of Electricity have registered an impressive performance in comparison to the index of other core sectors of Indian economy, i.e. Coal, Crude Oil, Natural Gas and Petroleum Refinery Products (please refer exhibit 1)

Renewable Energy- A Renaissance in Indian Power Sector

India’s population of more than 1028 million is growing at an annual rate of 1.58%. As fossil fuel energy becomes scarcer, India will face energy shortages significantly due to increase in energy prices and energy insecurity within the next few decades. Increased use of fossil fuels also causes environmental problems both locally and globally.

There is a very high demand for energy, which is currently satisfied mainly by coal, foreign oil and petroleum, which apart from being a non-renewable, and therefore non-permanent solution to the energy crisis, it is also detrimental to the environment. Thus, it is imperative that India obtains energy security without affecting the booming economy, which would mean that the country must switch from the non-renewable energy (crude oil and coal) to renewable energy.

The 2022 electrical power targets include achieving 227GW (earlier 175 GW) of energy from renewable sources, nearly 113 GW through solar power, 66 GW from wind power, 10 GW from biomass power, 5GW from small hydro and 31GW from floating solar and offshore wind power. The bidding process for the further additional 115 GW or thereabouts to meet these targets of installed capacity from January 2018 levels will be completed by the end of 2019-2020. The government has announced that no new coal-based capacity addition is required beyond the 50 GW under different stages of construction likely to come online between 2017 and 2022.

The role of new and renewable energy has been assuming increasing significance in recent times with the growing concern for the country’s energy security. The Indian Government has been at work, making a comprehensive policy for compulsory use of renewable energy resources through biomass, hydro-power, wind, solar and municipal waste in the country, particularly for commercial establishments, as well as Government establishments. The major contribution to renewable energy investment comes from private sector participation. This is due to the support from the government, which leverages the private investment.

Ministry of Non-conventional Energy Sources is focused on nation-wide resource assessment, setting up of commercial projects, renovation and modernization, development and up-gradation of water mills and industry based research and development.

Nuclear Power- Building a New India

Global carbon emissions have been rising sharply since the end of 20th century, and countries have adopted various policies and switched over to alternate source of energy to minimize/reduce Greenhouse Gas Emissions in different sectors. India’s Nationally Determined Contributions (NDC) has outlined goals to reduce the carbon emissions intensity of its economy by 33-35 percent by 2030 as well as increase the clean energy capacity to 40% of the total installed capacity in the same period. The most important source of energy for India in the coming decades is nuclear power, given its huge potential growth, emission-free nature and consistent nature of production.

India has a streamlined nuclear power program and expects to have 20,000 MW nuclear capacities on line by 2020. It aims to supply 25% of electricity from nuclear power by 2050. Since India is outside the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty due to its weapons program, it had been largely excluded for 34 years from trade in nuclear plant or materials, which has hindered its development of civil nuclear energy until 2009. India’s vision is to become a world leader in nuclear technology due to its expertise in fast reactors and thorium fuel cycle. Please refer exhibit 2 to have a glimpse of various nuclear power projects, installed capacities and nuclear power reactors.

Exhibit 2

Nuclear Power Projects and Installed Capacities

Way Forward

India’s power sector is undergoing a noteworthy change, and this has redefined the industry outlook. Demand for electricity is seeing a steady growth with a pick-up in the economy, especially manufacturing activity, as well as favorable government policy. The government has implemented various progressive measures to maximise power generation capacity and improve distribution.

India has made great steps in raising access to electricity; as more than 13 crore people joined the power grid since 2013. Also, a close look at the index of electricity showed it has been growing considerably in core sector data. Per capita electricity consumption, which was a mere 16.3 units in 1947, has increased to 1,122 units in 2016-17.

Government initiatives like 24x7 power, power to all households by March 2019 and UDAY, which has improved viability of discoms to buy more power to serve more customers and the CEC initiatives that include linking of deviation settlement mechanism (DSM) prices to DAM prices at the exchange average clearing price, have helped the sector witness robust growth.

However, it is extremely essential to address the following critical issues plaguing the power sector- Average transmission and distribution losses (T&D). It is to be noted that T&D losses surpassed 22% of total power generation. The causes of T&D losses are due to substantial energy sold at low voltage, sparsely distributed loads over large rural areas, inadequate investment in distribution system, improper billing, and high pilferage.

Another issue that demands attention is shortage in supply of coal. Since substantial power generation occurs through thermal power plants that use coal as key raw material, inadequate supply of coal jeopardises the power generation. However, with e-coal auctions coming in the picture, this problem seems to have been resolved considerably.

Last but not the least, one of the major concerns for the power generation companies is the off-take of electricity. Power generators sell power to SEBs or DISCOMs. SEBs are facing financial crisis and are suffering losses to the extent of Rs 700 billion annually. The SEBs do not have enough resources to purchase power from the generators. Hence a situation has risen wherein there is excess of power but no takers for the same.

If the aforesaid issues are addressed appropriately it may said without an iota of doubt that future of India power sector is bright.
