8. Recent Global energy crisis leading to exorbitant
increase in Power Cost : A Warning Signal
Global Scenario
• Increase in price of imported coal and gas
• Increase in the lead time for delivery of imported coal and gas
• Uncertainty of availability of imported gas
• Suppliers preferring to pay penalty even for long term contracts rather
than suppling gas

9. Recent Global energy crisis leading to exorbitant
increase in Power Cost : A Warning Signal
Indian Scenario
• Domestic coal supply could not catch up with the requirement
• Commercial issues of Imported Coal Based Stations
• Major problem are experienced during September - October and April - May
• Steps taken-
• High level monitoring for maintaining fuel supply (Coal and Gas)
• Gas stations operationalized under RRAS
• Brought down Market Price Cap from Rs 20/kWh to Rs 12/kWh (to
protect consumer interest)
• Blending of imported coal with domestic coal
• Operationalisation of Imported coal based plants
• Deferring the planned maintenance of generating units from the critical
months
All states/Discoms/Gencos have cooperated to avert the crisis but
it gave a warning signal.

10. Indian condition : Causes and Remedial measures
Why this situation:
• September - October and April – May are transition months (Mismatch between
the Demand and supply)
• During September – October
• Hydro and wind starts dropping out from September : any early sharp reduction again
stresses the coal based stations
• Demand starts dropping from Mid October
• Sudden dip or increase in the Renewable generation especially Wind (Grid
experienced as high as around 6 to 8 thousand MW)
• Heat wave conditions increases the demand
• During the Rainy hours/ days, demand reduces drastically: Requires flexible
operation of coal based stations

11. Indian condition : Remedial measures (being taken)
Remedial Measures
• Measures to enhance the domestic coal supply: CIL, SCCL, Coal blocks
• Operationalisation of gas based stations for meeting the peaking requirements
• Blending of imported coal with domestic coal
• Optimisation of planned maintenance schedules of generating units at national
level
• Scheme for utilisation of surplus capacity in any State/ Region by other needy
States through a transparent mechanism
• Expeditious implementation of RE Bundling scheme with thermal power to save
coal
• Addressing the choke points of Railways for transportation of coal
• Are these measures sufficient to supply 24x7 electricity in future to consumers

12. Resource Adequacy
Why RA
•Less capacity for market
•Poor liquidity in the power market
•Isolated state wise planning- scope for optimization and
reduced cost of supply
•Uncertain and variable nature of RE
•Requirement of balancing Power and flexibility for RE

13. Countries adopted Resource Adequacy (RA)
*Select Countries with RA regulations

14. Resource Adequacy : Status
 Draft RA Guidelines published for public comments
 Pilot studies taken up for 5 states (MP, TN, Odisha, Punjab and Assam)
 RA study for MP and Assam completed
 National Workshop on RA held in Delhi on 22.9.2022
 5 regional RA Workshops planned (WR workshop to be held in Bhopal on 28.10.2022)
 Training module preparation with NTPC School of Business and NPTI
States/Discoms are requested to participate and
constitute a team for RA studies

28.  ISTS schemes being implemented through TBCB route.
 The Tariff Policy stipulates competitive bidding route for the development of intra-state
transmission projects.
 States should resort to implementation of transmission schemes through TBCB route for
cost reduction in form of reduced tariff, thereby leading to benefits to the consumers.
 InvIT successfully done by Powergrid. Powergrid has monetized more than Rs 7700 crore
in May 2021 by monetizing five of their transmission assets through Infrastructure
Investment Trust.
 Capital needed for creation of transmission assets in the states could be raised through
monetization of transmission assets. State TRANSCOs must avail this opportunity.
 “Guiding Principles for Monetization of Transmission assets in the Public Sector through
Acquire, Operate, Maintain and Transfer (AOMT) based Public Private Partnership
Model has been formulated by Ministry of Power.
