Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Restructuring Electric Power System gives readers a thorough understanding of the technology involved in this very recent advance field. Electricity is a commodity with several features that distinguish it from other goods and services. It cannot be stored and its instant transmission requires a network of wires. A pre-requisite for ensuring orderly transportation of electricity under new regulatory environment is the creation of an independent entity that would channelize and control its flow in an optimum manner and without any discrimination, just as a traffic policeman or air traffic controller does in respect of traffic flowing to and from several directions. This causes several issues which are dealt by this book systematically. This book shall be useful as text/reference to field engineers, undergraduate, postgraduate students and the research scholars working in this field. MATLAB M-files and SIMULINK have been included in some of the numerical examples to assist the analysis. Thus, the book includes topics power flow analysis, Power trading, restructured market, market forces and transmission issues, ATC, congestion management, AGC and ancillary services.

Book excerpt: I am presenting this study on behalf of the millions and millions of citizens of India who eagerly are waiting to witness the transition from darkness to lightness. Many more cyber cities are the dreams of Indians. Politics Vs Economics , is the prime mover for any national development in the World. I believe every stakeholder is contributing to develop and sustain the Indian Power Sector within the limitations and restrictions of scope and availability. Policy, regulation, legislation , controls, monitoring, implementation, projects, institutions, structures, frameworks, services, finances, revenues, losses, profits, and so on are struggling to excel with infinite permutations and combinations. Research & Development (R&D) in India is not to be neglected in core sectors. R&D is a continual tool towards betterment of the complete supply chain of electricity supply. Ministry of New & Renewable Energy is taking initiatives to conduct solar training programmes. Power Consumption Vs Power Conservation, the balance can be made only by awareness , education and training programmes throughout the World. Energy is always a Global issue. Will Green Energy dominate the Power Sector in India? I believe, Learning by criticism brings in excellence. We all should thank this type of debate, discussions, brainstorming and analysis . It brings out innovations and refinement in thinking and decision making. The perception of constructive criticism should be to find avenues for strengthening the Indian Power System. I am grateful to all the analysts in the energy and power sector who have sacrificed their valuable time in researching and innovating better ways of improving the power systems in the world. I am equally indebted to the great scientists , educationists and reformists who have lived their lives to light the world. I am obliged to understand their pain in transforming the darkness of the world into lightness forever. I hope every reader should participate in saving electrical energy . This book, Energy Crisis in India, is a drive to alleviate the energy crisis. I sincerely request my readers and their associates to join me and the nation in saving energy . Finally from the bottom of my heart we will all remain indebted to the , People who Power the World..

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Electricity is critical to enabling India’s economic growth and providing a better future for its citizens. In spite of several decades of reform, the Indian electricity sector is unable to provide high-quality and affordable electricity for all, and grapples with the challenge of poor financial and operational performance. To understand why, Mapping Power provides the most comprehensive analysis of the political economy of electricity in India’s states. With chapters on fifteen states by scholars of state politics and electricity, this volume maps the political and economic forces that constrain and shape decisions in electricity distribution. Contrary to conventional wisdom, it concludes that attempts to depoliticize the sector are misplaced and could worsen outcomes. Instead, it suggests that a historically grounded political economy analysis helps understand the past and devise reforms to simultaneously improve sectoral outcomes and generate political rewards. These arguments have implications for the challenges facing India’s electricity future, including providing electricity to all, implementing government reform schemes, and successfully managing the rise of renewable energy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: India has emerged as a rapidly developing economy in the 21st century. However, to support this growth, India needs to modernize its electricity sector and increase its generating capacity in the coming years. This calls for substantial investment in the sector over the next few decades. The investments must be economically, socially, and culturally consistent with the needs of India. Such investments in the energy sector being long term in nature, appropriate choices must also be made from the perspective of technology and environment This publication focuses on various 'alternatives in development' to ensure future sustainability of India's electricity industry and generate policy options for both developing the power sector and mobilizing foreign resources. It also looks at the critical issue of how India can develop required institutional framework that can promote the modernization of the electricity sector by encouraging endogenous and exogenous sources of funding into specific areas, issues related to technology transfer and sustainable development, the role of donor agencies and climate change funds, etc. A three-pronged research strategy was adopted to untangle the issues facing the electricity sector in India. First, the research team carried out a literature survey covering scientific literature, reports, and policy documents. Second, it studied country-specific cases to understand the lessons learnt from specific outcomes of the work done by other countries. And third, the team interviewed various stakeholders from the private sector, government, multilateral institutions, non-governmental organizations, and academic community. The information thus gathered was finally synthesized and a SWOT (strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats) analysis was carried out. This publication, titled Alternate development paths: scope for mobilizing international resources for funding the power sector in India, will be useful to policy-makers, financial analysts, academics, decision-makers in international development agencies, and those interested in India's power sector.

Book excerpt: Electricity is a concurrent subject. And as all of us know, up to 1975, generation, distribution and transmission, all were handled practically only by the State Electricity Boards. The Central Government has entered this sector only after 1975, and has played an important role by contributing about 32% of the total generation capacity of the country, Out of 1,00,000 ckm of high voltage transmission lines, about 50,000 ckm is contributed by Central Government. It will continue to play an important role in future too.The power sector requires an investment of more than Rs. 8 lakh crore so as to have one of the best and contemporary power infrastructures in the world. Private participation is encouraged. The power sector at present suffers from shortages, high level of Aggregate Technical and Commercial Losses, fuel shortages, low Plant Load Factor in some plants, inadequate rural electrification, as also its slow pace, inefficient use of energy, etc. Union Government and States are seized of these problems.This book Indian Power Sector Challenge and Response highlights these problems and also gives some suggestions to combat these troubles. This book will be of immeasurable use to all the technocrats, professionals and investors in power sector.

This book was released on 2019-02-01 with total page 35 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After the thorough study of the present market, we learned that there isn't much scope for the general public to become aware of the regulations which guide the power sector of our country. In fact, even people working in the power sector, like those who are related to power generation, transmission, distribution, operation and maintenance, etc, but not directly related to power business and regulatory matters, are ignorant of such various rules and regulations. Current power market is consumer-driven, and hence it is very important on the part of the consumers and other utilities to have knowledge about these regulations in order to maximise their output, enhance their profit, and in the same place shielding themselves from various kinds of gaming by other competing utilities. The one who has full knowledge of such rules and regulatory matters can efficiently manage their business, extracting maximum gain in this competitive market and will rise to become the final champion in the market. This book starts from the genesis of power industry in India, covering in its path the Electricity Act and earlier legislations and legal background, overview of the Indian Power Sector, Role which the Regulators play in efficient running of this sector, Indian Electricity Grid Code, Presence of Load Despatch Centres and their functions, scenario of Open Access in power Sector in India, Tariff determination and its structure, Power Exchange, evolution and expansion of Renewable Energy Sector in India and efficient energy management. The aim of writing this book is to reach out to more and more people. This book will be of great help to power industry professionals, who will finally know what their effort is finally yielding to. Thus it will increase their interest as well as efficiency. Each step is interlinked, so the final profit will be the compound gain of each individual step. The book will also be useful to aspiring power engineers and power management students, who can have a broad outlook of the Indian Power Sector as a whole. Lastly, the general public will also be benefitted as they are the one who ultimately pays

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The history of electricity in India traces an inverted arc – like a smiley – which starts in the colonial period with private electricity capacity leading, regresses to a mode of near complete public sector monopoly by the 1980s and then traces the upward incline to a near 50% share for private electricity suppliers – not a full smiley but a slightly lop-sided one. The half-smile – like Mona Lisa’s – masks long periods of misallocation of public capital, unabashed populism, and careless adherence to ‘path dependencies’ which plagues bureaucracies the world over. This book asks a few inconvenient questions and provides some out-of-the-box solutions with the intention of enlarging the public debate around how the electricity sector should be regulated and developed going forward. … most impressive is the vast historical canvass it covers placing the electricity sector in the framework of national economic ‘reform’ leading to industry restructuring and the introduction of autonomous regulation, which remain works in progress. Dr Pramod Deo, former Chairman, CERC … encapsulates an ‘electric’ journey of over a 100 years in a succinct yet comprehensive manner. It is a key to understanding the fundamentals of the Indian electricity sector. Gireesh B Pradhan, former Chairman, CERC and former Secretary, MNRE An innocuous subject like electricity springs to life when viewed through the lens of a seasoned policy analyst and researcher. Weaves an intricate tale of the twists and turns of the electricity sector from the restrictive days of colonial rule through consolidation to its present-day spread across the country. The finale is a transformational framework to make the sector future-ready, although … the proposal of multi-state electricity regulators does not fi t the context of India’s fractious and divisive politics. Prabir Neogi, Chief Advisor (Corporate Affairs), RP-Sanjiv Goenka Group … does not stop at only presenting the history and challenges … also proposes bold reform measures, including privatization of distribution and establishment of regional regulators. There may be divergent opinions about some of the measures, but I am sure every stakeholder will agree with the following observation, “India needs to enhance its energy resilience and security. This is possible if the spirit of cooperative federalism suff uses institutional arrangements and public interest trumps political upmanship.” Shantanu Dixit, Prayas (Energy Group), Pune Contents: Foreword Preface Introduction Electricity dispels the darkness The origins of electricity The colonial period: electricity for the elite: 1950–1984 Democratizing electricity supply The Electricity (Supply) Act, 1948 Central planning favours public investment-led development The Industrial Policy Resolution, 1956 The fiscal cost of public electricity supply Electricity-intensive development Changes in consumption pattern The return of private investment: 1985–2020 International comparison of electricity supply Profligate use of electricity shunned Incentives for electricity reform Union government’s initiatives for structural reform in electricity The outcomes of reforms The end of supply shortages Generation capacity utilization lower than optimal Transmission shines Private power exchanges Discoms: the weakest link in the value chain The unfinished reforms agenda Planned electricity development: supply-side triumph or copycat industrial policy?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The World Bank is changing the way it does business in the energy sector. This Policy Paper is one of two that outlines the Bank's new policies for the sector. The review was prompted by concern about the effects of power generation on the environment and on populations that may be resettled to make way for projects. Another stimulus was the macroeceonomic reality of fewer investment resources in many countries. And many developing countries are becoming more receptive to reforming the way energy is produced and consumed. This paper credits the "public monopoly" approach of the last 30 years with facilitating expansion of power supplies, capturing technical economies of scale, and making effective use of scarce managerial and technical skills. Nonetheless, it recommends several new policies to improve the performance of the electric power sector in developing countries. These reforms will guide future Bank activities in the sector. Bank loans for electric power will go first to countries clearly committed to improving the performance of their power sectors. The Bank will also discourage subsidies on energy prices and will encourage private investment in utilities. And it will provide financing to help the least developed countries import power where local generation is not practical. The efficiency of production and use of electric power in developing countries is examined in a companion paper, Energy Efficiency and Conservation in the Developing World: The World Banks Role . The World Bank's Role in the Electric Power Sector is also available in Spanish: La funcion del Banco Mundial en el sector de la electricidad. Politicas para efectuar una reforma institucional, regulatoria, y financieria eficaz. (ISBN 0-8213-2451-9) / Stock No. 12451 / $7.95 / Price code 007 / Spanis
