Proposed & Under Construction Hydro Projects in India 2009
Infraline Energy, December 2009, Pages: 380
India is the second fastest growing economy of the world and the 6th largest energy consumer which accounts for 3.4% of the total world energy consumption. As the country continues to tread on the road to growth and development, dependable and reliable energy sources become a prerequisite. Indian electricity sector had never been successful in meeting its five year capacity addition plan and the XI five year Plan seems to heading in the same direction. Forty percent of India’s population- mostly in rural areas- is still devoid of access to electricity and one-third of businesses in India cite expensive and unreliable power as one of the major constraints. It is unanimously recognized that growth in generation capacity is more of an imperative to sustain the current growth rate than a mere planning component.
Though Thermal Power with current (as in November 2009) installed capacity of 99628.48 MW forms the bulk of total installed capacity, accounting for 64% of the total energy consumption of the country, hydro at 36885.40 MW and accounting for approximately 24% has assumed greater significance and proportions, in the wake of Ecological and Climatic consequences of fossil fuel based energy sources. Recent legislative and government initiatives at Central and State Level aims to harness the huge untapped hydro potential of India, currently pegged at 84,000 MW at 60 per cent load factor out of which only 24% has been developed so far. In addition to this, 6872 MW from 1512 small hydro schemes can also be economically exploited. Further, the government agencies have identified 56 sites from pumped storage schemes. The current scenario of Hydro Power Sector in India is accurately elaborated in this report along with an unmistakable projection of future trends in the concerned industry.
In the past various factors such as the dearth of adequately investigated projects, environmental concerns, resettlement and rehabilitation issues, land acquisition problems, regulatory issues, long clearance and approval procedures, power evacuation problems, the dearth of good contractors, and in some cases, inter-state issues and law and order problems have contributed to the slow pace of hydropower development. There have been large time and cost overruns in case of some projects due to geological surprises, resettlement and rehabilitation issues, etc. This report aims to capture and deliberate on each of such kinds of hurdles which have thwarted the growth of Hydro Power Development in India for a long time. Recognising these obstacles and the unfortunate lack of Private Participation in this sector, the Govt. has undertaken landmark initiatives to give the necessary impetus required for this sector to take off. The report drills each of these legislative and Policy initiatives (such as the 50,000 MW initiative and the Hydro Policy as well as the enabling provisions of the Electricity Act, 2003) to explore both their pros and cons, and their role in boosting Hydro Power development in India.
In spite of opening of the sector in 1991, and further enabling provisions such as open access and trading, the risk perception associated with developing hydro projects is quite high. In addition to this, the financing woes coupled with resettlement and rehabilitation issues and delayed clearances have worked over-time to keep Private Participation at bay. One of the key aspects analysed in this report is the reasons and solution to virtual absence of Private sector in this sector. Excerpts from industry stalwarts form a key component of the report and intends to capture all the aspects of hydro power development right from the regulator’s point of view to the developer’s opinion, both private and Government. Two case studies add to the analysis of various issues being faced in developing Hydro Power.
However, the crux and USP of this report remains the unparalleled, comprehensive, concise and detailed data analysis of over 85 Hydro Projects in India: Under Construction and Proposed. Being, the only such data enriched report in the industry, encompassing all aspects of hydro project including general, technical, geological and regulatory information, the report aims to deliver on its onus of being a one-stop answer to all data and information needs relevant to a Hydro Project in India.
