Financial & operational opportunities for disco ms under udaySakshi Saini
What erstwhile was ignored, has now gained pinnacle importance by Government as the future of power sector at large depends upon better financial health and consistent operations of DISCOMS. To ensure this objective Government did attempted FRPs for struggling Discoms in 2013 which tanked due to lack of timely implementation, forcing yet another scheme to turnaround the fate of state owned distribution utilities which has earned the nomenclature as UDAY (Ujwal DISCOM Assurance Yojana). The scheme is touted as the next paladin to bail out the struggling Discoms, potentially could see them turn green in a time horizon of 3-4 years from 2015/16.

GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...James Anderson
Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

2. Coal on Global perspective
Globally, coal resources have been estimated at over
861 billion tonne
Coal meets around 30.3% of the global primary
energy needs and generates 42% of the world’s
electricity
Coal production in the Asia Pacific region has
grown tremendously and accounts for over 67%
of the total production globally (2012) as
compared to about 27% in 1981 (in terms of
energy equivalent).
In year 2012 around 6.1 billion tonne of hard
coal and 1 billion tonne of brown coal were used
worldwide
3.
4. Brief facts about India Coal
Industry
India has the fifth largest coal reserves in the
world.
88% are non-coking coal reserves & 12%
coking coal reserves
Indian coal is characterised by its high ash
content (45%) and low sulphur content
Power sector is the largest consumer of coal
followed by the iron and steel and cement
segments
5. Demand -Supply scene
Coal production has increased from~431 MT
in 2006-07 to ~554 MT* in 2011-12 (an
increase of 28.5%).
Demand for coal has grown at a CAGR of
more than 7% in the last decade and has
reached around 600 MT
Country’s total demand-supply gap (including
coking coal) at about 98MT
India imports about 85 million tonne of coal

Import
8. Trends in Coal consumption
(Industry wise)
During 1970-71, the railways were the major
consumer of coal (15.58 MTs), followed by
steel and washery industries (13.53 MTs),
electricity generation (13.21 MT) and cement
(3.52 MTs).
Since 1975, the electricity generation is the
biggest consumer of coal, followed by steel
industries. Estimated coal consumption for
electricity generation increased from 23 MTs
during 1975-76 to 435 MTs during 2011-12.
9. Coal consumption has
increased in almost all industry
segments with electricity
contributing the highest
consumption clocking a CAGR
of nearly 9% over the years
from 1970 to 2011.Except
cotton industry which shows a
negative CAGR, the
consumption of coal for other
industries has gone up over the
years.
For steel and cement sector,
coal consumption almost
remained stagnant in 2007 to
2009 due to global slump. It
recovered in 2009, but
recorded a down swing in
2010-11 indicating the slow
growth of the segment due to
global recession and European
crisis.
10. Trend in Coal Import
Gross import of coal has steadily increased
from 20.93 MTs during 2000-01 to 73.26 MTs
during 2009-10.During this period, the
quantum of coal exported increased from
1.29 MTs during 2000-01 to 2.45 MTs during
2009-10. However, there was a decline of
5.92% in gross import and 8.89% in net
imports of coal in 2010-11 over the previous
year. The exports to neighbouring countries
increased by about 80% during the same
period
11.
12. Important observations about Coal
import
China & India becoming the highest gross net
importer of the coal
India was traditionally a coking coal importer due to
unavailability of good quality coking coal for steel, but
the situation has changed in favour of non coking coal
in the past five years with non coking coal imports
rising from countries like Indonesia and South Africa.
Further, the coal washing capacity in the country has
not increased sufficiently, due to various reasons, to
generate the required quantity of washed coal for
consumption, particularly in steel plants. This
necessitates the import of high quality coal to meet
the requirements of steel plants
13. Sector wise Coal consumption in
india 2011-12 (Source : Coal
Ministry)
14. Electricity Sector
India is the world’s fifth largest energy consumer,
accounting for 4.1% of the global energy
consumption.
The current per capita consumption of energy in
India is 0.5 toe against the global average of 1.9 toe,
indicating a high potential for growth in this sector
Total electricity consumed in India approximately
80% is produced from coal
15.
16. Steel sector
In 2011, the world crude steel production
reached 1,518 MT, reflecting a growth of 6.2%
over 2010.
The per capita finished steel consumption in
2011 is estimated at 215 kg for world and 460
kg for China, while that for India it is estimated
currently at 55 kg (provisional). This clearly
indicates scope for increasing the per capita
steel consumption, a factor which correlates to
the coking coal availability and production
within the country.
17. Coal demand trend of Steel
industry in India vis-à-vis Steel
production
19. Cement sector
India is the second largest producer of cement
in the world
Around 450g of coal is consumed to produce
900g of cement. Ratio of 1:2
cement industry is the third largest consumer
of coal in the country.

22. Major Coal Mining Companies
Based on production data from Coal controller
organization report 2011-12, top 5 coal
producing company in terms of coal production
are :
1. CIL (PSU)
2. SCCL (PSU)
3. PANEM (Private)
4. TSL (Private)
5. JPL (Private)
23.
24. NCDP (New Coal distribution
Policy)
The category of Core/Non Core sector was dispensed with
Defence and Railways requirement of coal to be met in full
Power and Fertiliser sector normative requirement to be
met with 100% supply
Other sectors demand to be met with 75% of their
normative requirement
State nominated agencies to be provided with coal to
further distribution to small and medium industries for
capacity of 4200 tonnes per annum
Steel plants will be supplied coal, but price to be linked with
import parity
Fuel Supply Agreement to be signed with all end
consumers lifting coal from CIL
30. Ways to increase coal supplies in
India
Operational or sustenance issues
Fund raising
Performance improvement
All the minerals are not reported as per UNFC classification
Key administrative issues
Long queue of mining applications pending at different
levels with the state and centre: This is a deterrent for future
investments.
Single window clearance agency (SWCA)
Large number of compliance reports to be filed by the
investors to CCO, state DMG, DGMS, tribunals, state and
central agencies
Multiple registration requirements for miners,transporters,
traders and end-users
31. Ways to increase coal supplies in
India...
Regulatory issues
Lack of policy support for transfer of mining concessions
Blocking of resources
Lack of incentives for exploration
Fiscal issues
Poor connectivity of mining areas and poor evacuation
facilities
Infrastructural issues
Cadastral (Khasra) maps are either not digitised or the
geo-referencing has not been done properly. This
creates problems in lease boundary determination, thus
hampering genuine miners.
32. Challenges in increasing the
production capacity
For CIL,179 forestry proposals are awaiting clearances and
if all approvals are secured on time, it canmore than double
its output to 1,132 MT, given that mines start production
from 2016-17.
Majority of the coal projects have been halted and delayed
due to issues in acquiring land and strict rules and
regulations (R&R).
Bottlenecks in domestic coal transportation and lack of
proper road connectivity further increase the challenge.
Also, availability of railway wagons and mismatch of
demand and supply of wagons and coal offtake affect
production capacity.
Delay in mining activities at captive coal blocks and
concerns relating to theincreasing ash content of run-of-
33. Way Forward for CIL
CIL needs to strengthen the operations in
its core area of mining
Aggressive investment of surplus available
with CIL, may go in for new technology and
UG mining, improvement in transport and
logistics
Switch to market driven pricing for different
consumers (regulated pricing for power
and fertiliser sector and market price at par
with other unregulated sector)
34. Way forward for Coal Ministry
Coal ministry should attract private investment in exploration,
drilling and planning activities and also in mining through
necessary policy changes and welcome the private players
The bore hole density from 1.5 per sq km to 15 per sq km without any forest
clearance.
Competitive bidding for coal blocks but only after full
exploration of coal blocks
The government has initiated the process of competitive bidding of 54 coal
blocks and Crisil has submitted its report on coal bidding guidelines. It is
under evaluation from different stake holders. The government has identified
coal blocks and segregated them so that the coal blocks come under
different categories for power, steel and state companies.
The sooner the coal regulator is in place, the better it will be
for the coal industry
35. Way Forward for Private
Players
Private parties to enter aggressively
through MDO route wherever available
Coal washeries is lucrative business
option, need to partner with state or central
government, else develop captive coal
washery for own use
Aggressively foreign asset acquisition and
exploring arbitrage opportunity, whether to
source coal to the country or trade in
global platform
36. My Recommendations
There is a need for private players in coal mining
operations and MDO provides the best opportunity for
private players in the current scenario. e.g
Huge investment and big push in UG mining is
inevitable for future sustainability coal mining
operations.
Only explored coal blocks are considered for competitive
bidding for captive coal block allocation and government
should fast track the process.
CIL needs to put all its act together for a double digit
growth in coal production, lack of co-ordination between
ministries poses the biggest hurdle.
Exploration offers the maximum opportunity for private
players, if opened fully, coal washing the next big thing
