Introduction
Power sector - One of the important sectors fuelling the GDP growth Private sector participation has increased recently - pushed by policies and regulations Complexities increased manifold Renewable energy - thrust area - REC R & D initiatives required in optimising system management shift from command control to contractual control
Melvin Koshy
Demand for electricity is closely linked to economic growth The share of electricity in total energy consumption 2002 - 16% 2030 - 20% During past thirty years, growth of global economy - 3.3% per year electricity demand - 3.6% Electricity demand by 2030 would be doubled
Melvin Koshy
Developing countries demand tripled Developed countries, growth of 1.4% per year
Indonesia - 5.2% India - 4.9% China - 4.5%
Sectoral growth
Residential electricity consumption - 119% Services sector - 97% Industry - 86%

Sources of Power
Dominant fuel in the past - Oil Last 30 years - More Coal Present Trend - More LNG Gas preferred to coal for
environmental advantages lower capital costs operational exibility
Melvin Koshy
Sources of Power
Nuclear stations
Long term cost advantage as base load Major impediment - safety hazards
Hydro
Environmental issues Cost of development in the rural areas. Salination of river deltas Erosion and siltation of dams Alienation of productive farmland Destruction of forests
Melvin Koshy
Fossil Fuels
Increased pollution due to sulphur dioxide, nitric oxides and carbon dioxide Trans-boundary issues such as acid rain Stratospheric ozone depletion Greenhouse eect
By 2030, power generation will account for nearly half of world consumption of natural gas
Melvin Koshy
Growth of Economy - 7 8%
Power sector growth required - 10 12% about 12000 MW capacity addition per annum
Percapita consumption - 733 kWh Projected for 2012 - 1000 kWh Power shortage
8% on average basis 12% on peaking basis
Hydro Power
Potential - 150,000 MW Utilised - 32,000 MW Target for 2017 - 50,000 MW

Management of Electricity
Electricity cannot be stored in large quantities Production to match with consumption in real-time Power ow depend only on the laws of Physics Electrical Network needs to be Controlled andCoordinated technically and economically Hence, a need for Load Dispatching

Real time The actual demand has to be met with power availability
Sources
Internal from the control area itself External to the control area Thermal Hydel Others
Melvin Koshy
Demand depends on Weather Social factors - festivals/holidays, examinations, major cricket matches etc. Political factors Availability of transmission, distribution system due to technical reasons Predictable/Unpredictable reasons

Integrated Operation
The power system is operated on integrated mode. This provides Better stability Better reliability Low spinning reserve requirement Possibility of economic operation Requirements Extensive transmission network Complex control and coordination

Constraints in Generation
Nuclear power - Strictly base load plant Coal based - 75% to 100%, Limited start stops Combined cycle - 75% to 100%, Limited start stops Open cycle - Cost high Hydel - Water discharge commitment, Spillage/Shortage of water

Tari determines charges, penalties and incentives To facilitate enforcement of optimisation, Availability Based Tari (ABT) was introduced, which has three components Capacity charges (Fixed cost) Energy charges (Variable cost) Unscheduled interchange (UI charges)
Melvin Koshy
The commercial mechanism of the ABT disciplines of all three entities in the grid - the generator, transmitter and the beneciaries The UI charges combined with capacity charge on availability basis facilitates the marketing of both capacity and energy on a continuous basis, and enforcement of grid discipline Availability Based Tari is appropriate as it reects all elements of capacity made available as well as capacity utilised
Melvin Koshy
Demand of the grid is not constant Frequency of the grid is not constant Depending on various conditions, the tie line ow varies from instant to instant Thus UI is unavoidable in an integrated network UI can be harnessed eectively to the advantage of the constituents if system permits Rate depends on frequency

Trading of power
Act 2003 and Electricity policy recognises trading of Electricity as a distinct activity Open access is provided in transmission sector so that any utility can buy power from any source in India or even from abroad Transmission charges are payable to the transmission company Losses associated are to be borne
Melvin Koshy
No agency is able to control the quality of his production or purchase in an integrated network. Power trading contributes to
Better grid conditions Grid discipline Reduction of the overall cost
Melvin Koshy
Trading can be
Bilateral Through traders approved by regulatory commissions Direct
Through Exchanges
Indian Energy Exchange Power Exchange India Ltd.
Melvin Koshy
Advantages of trading
Resources optimization Reducing peaking shortage by ensuring transfer of electricity from surplus region to decit region on day to day basis and even on real time basis Signal for investment in generation (Evident from the number of generators coming up on merchant basis and willing to sell power to the needy consumers by participating in tender formalities) Harnessing of various sources of power such as co-generation, captive, wind power etc. Better utilisation of transmission assets eectively reduces the overall transmission cost as Short term trading is done by utilizing the inherent margin of the transmission network
Melvin Koshy
Most of the trade in power exchanges is through day-ahead market. The requirement/availability for the next day can be quoted on hourly basis. There is no obligation on time period for oers, the quantum of requirement Prices quoted are to be considered as true reection of the merit order of purchasers. The oered price by sellers is based on market conditions
Melvin Koshy
Pre-conditions like must buy for a time period, say o-peak along with peak, day time with o-peak etc. are common Ensure scheduling of the plant above technical minimum throughout the day Possibility of subsidising some portion of o peak sale with the margin available during peak or day-time Agreements for longer period-typically week ahead or month ahead Swap covering several months also possible
Melvin Koshy
Purchase can be restricted to the essential period alone in case of power shortage This preserves the overall merit order-Even purchase for 4 h (say), peak at a rate higher than the costliest internal station may prove to be in merit order Very low prices discovered in exchanges in some period can be utilised for meeting energy shortage
