Climate Change & Sustainable Development

Indian Energy Sector – Threats & Opportunities

Share of fuel in energy sector

With the ultimate

responsibility to decarbonize the energy sector, doing

away with the whole thermal

power fleet seems a

necessity, therefore making

our future bleak. But

considering the ambitious

aim of +8% GDP growths &

India being 5th Largest coal

reserve in the world, this

seems to be a distant future, at least not before 2040.

But, considering the other

responsibilit ies, it is time

that we take a bold step

forward to high efficiency

technology from low

efficiency technology. Installation of only

Supercritical Units

(565/593°C MS Temp, 40%

design η) in 13th Plan is

envisaged. BHEL has already

augmented its manufacturing capacity to

20GW p.a. through

collaborations with Alstom &

Siemens. 9 x 800MW units

have already been approved

for NTPC (Kudgi, Lara,

Darlipali & Gajmara).

As for the subcritical units,

ensuring operative

efficiency equal or close to

design efficiency is the only

alternative until end of life or till regulations & business needs allow operation.

RESPONSIBILITIES:

Promote mainstream sustainable development

integrating socio – economical & environmental

aspects.

Ensure Universal Access to Modern Energy Services by 2030.

Reduce global energy

intensity by 40 per cent by 2030.

Improve Energy Efficiency.

Deploy Low – GHG Emission Technologies.

Decarbonize energy sector.

3) Enhancing household access to cleaner forms of energy. 4) Incentivize Renewables to achieve a supply of 99.6 GW by 13th Plan from 24.5 GW in 11th Plan. 5) Capacity Addition Plan to promote use of conventional & non – conventional energy resources:

Plan Year Target (in MW)

Thermal Hydro Nuclear Total 11th 07-12 50,757 8,237 3,380 62,374 12th 12-17 67,686 9,204 2,800 79,690 13th 17-22 49,200 12,000 18,000 79,200

In response to the commitment made to the international community regarding sustainable development, India has taken / resolved to take the following steps: 1) Initiation of the NAPCC (National Action Plan on

Climate Change) & R-APDRP Scheme. 2) Extension of the RGGVY (Rajiv Gandhi Grameen

Vidyutikaran Yojana) through enhanced T&D network to provide energy access to all.

2 SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT : FUTURE OF INDIAN ENERGY SECTOR

Low Carbon Growth Strategy: The new India 1) Promote Hydro Power development

2) Renewable Energy Capacity Addition:

Plan Year Target (in MW)

Wind Small Hydro Solar Biomass Total 11th 07-12 10,500 1,400 0 2,100 14,000 12th 12-17 15,000 2,100 10,000 2,700 29,800

3) With international aids, India aims to have 68,000 MW of Nuclear Energy by FY 2031 – 32. 4) Introduction of Demand Side Management (DSM) systems, like smart grid. 5) Promote Solar Energy through The Jawaharlal Nehru National Solar Mission:

a. Through Long term policy that incentivize production of SPV Cells & solar power generation. b. Aggressive R&D c. Large scale deployment goals.

6) Reduced AT&C Losses through R-APDRP scheme by a. Initiation of Energy Accounting & Auditing b. T&D Capacity Augmentation c. Franchisee development for billing purposes d. Consumer Attitude Surveys

The Energy Engineers’ Association (EEA) is the largest representative body of engineers in WBPDCL. Registered under the West Bengal Societies Registration Act 1961 (Registration No S/1L/No. 80816 of 2011-12), the EEA works towards the overall development of The West Bengal Power Development Corporation Ltd (WBPDCL) upholding the interest of all stakeholders. The Association, as it is popularly called, started its journey from Kolaghat Thermal Power Station in the year 1994 with the amalgamation of two such existing platforms, namely the Power Engineers Association (PEA) & Electrical Engineers Association, in an aim to bring the interests of all engineers under one umbrella. The Association is constituted of the Central Committee, operating from the WBPDCL Corporate HQ in Kolkata, & Zonal Committees of each of the five power stations (Kolaghat, Bandel, Bakreshwar, Santaldih & Sagardighi). Elections are held every year for constitution of the Executive Council of each of the said Committees. For further details please visit www.wbpdcleea.com
