Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Throughout the 20th century, electricity was considered to be the primary vehicle of modernity, as well as its quintessential symbol. In India, electrification was central to how early nationalists and planners conceptualized Indian development, and huge sums were spent on the project from then until now. Yet despite all this, sixty-five years after independence nearly 400 million Indians have no access to electricity. Electrifying India explores the political and historical puzzle of uneven development in India's vital electricity sector. In some states, nearly all citizens have access to electricity, while in others fewer than half of households have reliable electricity. To help explain this variation, this book offers both a regional and a historical perspective on the politics of electrification of India as it unfolded in New Delhi and three Indian states: Maharashtra, Odisha, and Andhra Pradesh. In those parts of the countryside that were successfully electrified in the decades after independence, the gains were due to neither nationalist idealism nor merely technocratic plans, but rather to the rising political influence and pressure of rural constituencies. In looking at variation in how public utilities expanded over a long period of time, this book argues that the earlier period of an advancing state apparatus from the 1950s to the 1980s conditioned in important ways the manner of the state's retreat during market reforms from the 1990s onward.

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

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..

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.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mark Twain observed, “I'm in favour of progress; it's change I don't like.” Coal dominates Indian energy because it’s available domestically and cheap (especially without a carbon tax). If the global focus is on the energy transition, how does India ensure a just transition? Managing winners and losers will be the single largest challenge for India’s energy policy. Coal is entrenched in a complex ecosystem. In some states, it’s amongst the largest contributors to state budgets. The Indian Railways, India’s largest civilian employer, is afloat because it overcharges coal to offset under-recovery from passengers. Coal India Limited, the public sector miner that produces 85% of domestic coal, is the world’s largest coal miner. But despite enormous reserves, India imports about a quarter of consumption. On the flip side, coal faces inevitable pressure from renewable energy, which is the cheapest option for new builds. However, there is significant coal-based power capacity already in place, some of which is underutilized, or even stranded. Low per-capita energy consumption means India must still grow its energy supply. Before India can phase out coal, it must first achieve a plateau of coal. How this happens cost-effectively and with least resistance isn’t just a technical or economic question, it depends on the political economy of coal and its alternatives. Some stakeholders want to kill coal. A wiser option may be to first clean it up, instead of wishing it away. Across 18 chapters, drawing from leading experts in the field, we examine all aspects of coal’s future in India. We find no easy answers, but attempt to combine the big picture with details, bringing them together to offer a range of policy options.

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.

This book was released on 2014-10-21 with total page 185 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The passage of India's Electricity Act of 2003 was a signature achievement, moving the sector toward amarket-driven approach that forced potential investors to compete aggressively for generation and transmission contracts. India's 2005 National Electricity Policy recognized electricity as one of the key drivers for rapid economic growth and poverty alleviation in the country. Yet the policy's target--electricity for all and 1,000 kilowatt-hours (kWh) available per capita by 2012--was not met. Despite a 20-year reform process and private-sector participation, the rate of resource augmentation and growth in energy supply has been less than the rate of increase in demand. Numerous challenges need to be addressed before India can overcome severe energy shortages and achieve its desired national policy objectives. Private Participation in the Indian Power Sector: Lessons from Two Decades of Experience examines the home-grown Indian experience with private sector participation in power, identifies emerging risks, and proposes specific actions for government consideration, so that the power sector may fulfill its important role in India's growth story. Much has been achieved, and the Indian power sector can rightfully take its placeamong the bold reformers. Yet a large agenda remains, and a more rigorous focus on implementation, particularly on last-mile reforms in the distribution sector, will be required. Close coordination among variousstakeholders and unrelenting attention to efficient execution through decentralized authority to make technical decisions, together with a robust emphasis on monitoring, evaluation, and transparent sharing of data and performance statistics, will help in achieving this objective.
