Developing Solar Projects under REC Mechanism in IndiaBhargav Parmar
Instead of signing MoU, PPA, submitting performance bank guarantee etc for 25 years or participating in cut throat bidding process (project is viable only to module manufacturers for the rate it can be achieved), I suggest to develop the solar project under REC Mechanism, as for selling the power through average exchange rate and realizing the mean value of REC rate for first five years and half of the floor price for next 5 years, yields levellised rate of Rs.10.536*. [Solar Tariff in Gujarat: Rs. 9.28 for project commissioned up to 2013, Rs. 8.63 for project commissioned up to 2014 and Rs. 8.03 for project commissioned up to 2015].
Even if REC floor price is reduced by half for next 5 years and NIL thereafter, developing the project under REC and selling the power through Energy Exchange, would yield rate of Rs.9.647 which is more than maximum rate of NVVN against cost of generation not more than Rs.6.50. [NVVN is the nodal agency of NTPC for procuring solar power to meet their REC requirement. In the 1st phase NVVN finalized bid for 150 MW Solar Projects and in latest bid for 350 MW Solar Projects. In the latest NVVN bid the price offer for solar power projects were minimum Rs.7.49 and maximum Rs.9.44]

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

15. Option with the Discoms: Utilising Exchange Market
• PPA for base load only
i. Discoms should tie-up PPA only to manage their base
demand
ii. Many Discoms have tied PPAs to meet their peak
demand as well. The Discoms have to pay the capacity
charge for this quantum even in the off peak time
example Gujarat, Haryana, Delhi, Punjab
iii. So for optimum utilisation, Long Term PPA should be
only for base demand and seasonal variations should
be bought through other available market options

18. Replacement of high variable cost power by Exchange
power
• Replacement of high variable cost power by Exchange power
I. Under long termPPA two component
• Capacity charges (commitment charges): paid irrespective of whether
discom purchase power from these plants or not
• Energy charges : Paid corresponding to the number of units of power
purchased from that particular plant
II. Discoms can replace costlier long termpower by procurementfrom IEX,if,
• Energy charge of power plant is greater than IEX rates
• During night hours prices at IEX are further low and savings can be
enhanced
III. Discoms can continue paying fixed charge to Long Term PPAs and
substitutewhereenergycharge is higher than IEX price
IV. IEX prices are around 25%-30% lower than the Bilateral Prices
19. Cost Optimisation by Discoms
• Discoms can devise least cost option to meet demand in the state by tracking prices
at IEX
– Energy chargegreaterthan prevailingACP can be substituted with powerfrom IEX
– During off-peakhours,when prices atIEX are low, savings can be enhanced replacingpower

25. Cost Optimization by Bihar
• Bihar has initiated the process of Cost Optimization
• The costlier power from Barh & Dadri stations is replaced by
the cheaper power from IEX.
• The Energy Charges of these power plants are greater than
the IEX rates.
• Bihar has made a saving of over 11 crores in 21 days
Due to low prices at the Exchange there is further potential to
increase savings
26. Utility Software created by IEX for Bid
Optimization
• IEX has created a utility software for Discoms and is providing it
free of cost
• The software is customised for each Discom to take into account
its existing PPAs along with their variable cost and status of must
run plants etc.
• Based on the inputs fed into the software, it provides with the
optimisation bid which should be put into the IEX bidding platform
along with details of backing down if the Bid is selected
• Benefits:
– Discoms need not be bothered about Exchange prices for bidding
– The software will create bid as per the Discoms merit order and other
constraints fed to it
– On acceptance of the Bid, the Discom can backdown the plants
27. Banking Transactions
• Banking transactions takes place directly between
Discoms, the transactions are cashless in nature,
where one Discom banks power to other for utilising
it later.
• Commercial considerations required for Banking
transactions with the reference price available.
