The document discusses the implementation of the Restructured Accelerated Power Development and Reforms Program (R-APDRP) in Rajasthan, India. Key points: - R-APDRP aims to establish reliable baseline data and adopt IT in energy accounting to reduce losses before distribution strengthening projects. - It has two parts - Part A focuses on IT applications for energy auditing and consumer services. Part B covers network renovation. - The Discoms of Rajasthan have taken steps like forming implementation committees and appointing an IT consultant to timely execute the scheme and avail grants. - Benefits of R-APDRP include increased consumer satisfaction, transparency, reduced out

2. The Smart Grid is the integration of Electrical &
Digital Technologies, Information and communication
which facilitates integration of business processes and
systems to yield real measurable value across the power
delivery chain. It is an intelligent future electricity
system that connects all supply, grid and demand
elements through a communication system. Smart grid
delivers electricity to consumers using two-way digital
technology that enable the efficient management of
consumers, efficient use of the grid to identify and
correct supply- demand imbalances.

enable the efficient management of consumers, efficient use of the
grid to identify and correct supply- demand imbalances. Smart Grid
solutions enable utilities to increase energy productivity and power
reliability while allowing the customers to manage the usage and
costs through real time information exchange. It impacts all the
components of the power system like Generation, Transmission and
Distribution.

4.  The Smart Grid focuses in four key areas:-
 Generation
 Transmission
 Distribution
 Consumer

5.  Smart Power Meters
 Smart Substations
 Smart Distribution
 Smart Generation

6.  A smart meter is an
electrical meter that records
consumption of electric
energy in intervals of an
hour or less.
 Communicates that
information at least daily
back to the utility for
monitoring and billing
purposes.
 Smart meters enable two-
way communication
between the meter and the
central system.

7. Automated Meter Reading
(AMR)
 Meter can be read remotely
using fixed network using:-
 hand-held / walk-by
 drive-by
 energy consumption
calculation on
annual, monthly, weekly, da
ily or on an hourly basis.

8. How A Smart Meter Works

9. Measure, read and analyse
energy consumption.
Read electricity, gas, heat
and water meters remotely.
Advanced communication
system
Sophisticated Meter Data
Management (“MDM”)

10. • Smart meters located at homes and businesses compose a
neighborhood area network (NAN).
• The NAN architecture is assumed to be a wireless mesh
network
• Meters communicate bidirectional with a neighborhood
"collector" via multichip routing.
• Collectors are connected directly to a utility provider.
• Smart meters have a limited
• A meter may malfunction and interfere with the proper
forwarding of packets, e.g., delaying, altering, misrouting,
dropping, or misinserting packets.

12. 1. Based on the new data acquisition
technology of phasor measurement.
2. WAM systems acquire current, voltage and frequency
phasor measurements, and are taken to PMU(Phasor
measurement Unit).
3. The measured quantities include both magnitudes and
phase angles, and are time-synchronised via GPS
receivers with an accuracy of one microsecond.

19. About R-APDRP
The Govt. of India has proposed to continue R-
APDRP during the XI Plan with revised terms and
conditions as a Central Sector Scheme. The focus of
the program shall be on actual, demonstrable
performance in terms of sustained loss reduction.
Establishment of reliable and automated systems
for sustained collection of accurate base line data
and the adoption of Information Technology in the
areas of energy accounting will be essential before
taking up the regular distribution strengthening
projects.

20.  (a) COVERAGE OF SCHEME
 Urban areas–towns and cities with population of more
than 30,000 are covered for implementation. Projects
under the scheme shall be taken up in Two Parts
 Part-A: will cover projects for establishment of
baseline data and IT applications for energy
accounting / auditing & consumer services. Initially
100% funds for the approved projects shall be
provided in the form of loan from GOI. The loan
along with the interest shall be converted into a grant
once the establishment of the required system is
achieved and verified by an independent agency
appointed by Ministry of Power through Nodal
Agency.

21.  Part-B will cover System
renovation, modernization, improvement, strengthening
,
 and augmentation of 11 kV & 33 kV network. Initially
up-to 25% funds for the
 projects shall be provided as loan from GOI . The
balance funds for Part B shall be
 raised from Financial Institutions namely PFC / REC /
Multi layer institution or own
 resources.

26. The Discoms of Rajasthan has already taken up the steps to implement the scheme
within stipulated period.
1. Discoms have created a common IT cell headed by Superintending Engineer (IT) of Jaipur
Discom comprising One XEN from each Discom and other qualified Engineers having
domain expertise and IT knowledge.
2. In order to implement the project on fast track the tender deciding committee chaired by the
Chairman Discoms and MDs of other 2 Discoms has been constituted
3. For better understanding of Business process and timely execution of the scheme to avail the
grant a core committee for implementation that comprises O&M , Accounts & IT persons has
been framed Similarly at Discom level one Steering committee has been constituted that will
take the monthly review of the projects
4. M/s Infosys Ltd., the leading IT Company of India have been appointed IT consultant on
1.4.09 through bidding process laid by Ministry of Power at the cost of Rs. 1.8 Crs for four
years services.
5. The detailed RFP for appointment of IT implementation agency is being prepared in
consultation with the IT consultant on the basis of Model RFP issued by MOP. It is envisaged
to float the RFP on 20.06.09.
6. In order to have identical system in entire state it has been decided to implement the scheme in
the entire state whether covered under RAPDRP or not. The expenditure incurred on the Non
R-APDRP area will be borne by the state Discoms.

30. 1. Increase consumer satisfaction
2. Transparency in overall working.
3. Reduce outages & interruptions, thus to ensure regular
supply to consumers
4. Compilation of a comprehensive data base of
consumers, assets, network etc., thus redresses of
Consumer complaint immediately
5. Monitoring the substation and Distribution
Transformers
6. Reduction of AT&C losses

35.  APDRP, R-APDRP initiative for distribution reform
 DRUM India – Distribution Reform Upgrade, Management
 Four pilot sites (North
Delhi, Bangalore, Gujarat, Maharashtra)
 Smart Grid Task Force – Headed by Sam Pitroda
 BESCOM project – Bangalore – Integration of renewable and
distributed energy resources into the grid
 KEPCO project in Kerala India - $10 Billion initiative for
Smart-Grid
 SA Habitat and Valence Energy – Hyderabad (2009) .
 Distributed generation via roof-top solar for 40% in a micro-
grid

37.  Aggressive deployment of Phasor Measurement Units
(PMUs)
 Northern grid – already installed 4 PMUs, 20 more
in progress
 Western grid – 25 PMUs
 Eastern grid – 70-80 PMUs
 Control schemes, Software for data visualization,

40.  In 21st century, if India dreams to emerge out as a
developed nation, energy efficiency and energy
conservation integrated with IT infrastructure is required to
be implemented. Smart Grids is one such option which can
drive India an inch closer to be a developed nation and
achieve energy security. Energy Automation will also play a
vital role in achieving the targets. The trend of Smart Grid
in US had turned out to be a huge success. The country’s
economy has improved drastically after implementation and
power losses have been reduced to around 12-15% in
US, and in future we hope to achieve the same and if
possible then much better that the other countries.
