India’s Power Sector Under Minister Piyush Goyal Achieves Major Milestones During 2016

 

India is moving fast on the power capacity generation front and from a power deficit nation, it is presently a power surplus region. Just a day back on December 26, state-owned NTPC Ltd inked an agreement to import 160 mw to India’s strategic neighbour Nepal.

With 2016 coming to an end, the Modi government has completed its half term. India’s power sector is moving well on the Government’s promise to provide 24×7 power across the country by 2019.

Amidst power surpluses, major initiatives by the government have seen the power tariffs dropping substantially and any state can freely purchase power to tide away shortages through the Vidyut Pravah Mobile App. At any given time of the day, anywhere between 1500-3000 mw is available to be bought by the states at a cost ranging between Rs 1.5 to 3 a unit.

Power Availability Position in India

Increase in electricity generation from 967 BU in 2013-14 to 1048 BU in 2014-15 and 1107 BU in 2015-16 resulting in lowest ever energy deficit of 2.1% in 2015-16, which has further lowered to 0.7% (April-Oct, 2016) from 2.1% (2015-16). The National Peak Power Deficit is down to half at 1.6% in the same period as compared to 2015-16.

Power Generation

During the 12th Plan period (2012-17), a capacity addition of about 88928.2 MW against the target of 88537 MW from conventional sources have been achieved till 31stOctober, 2016 and about 21,128 MW against the target of 30000 MW from renewable sources have been achieved till 30th September, 2016.

Due to large generation capacity addition, the electricity energy shortage in the country has reduced to 0.7% during the current year 2016-17 (up to October, 2016) from 8.7% during the year 2012-13. Adequate supply of the domestic coal to power plants has been ensured. The growth of domestic coal supply to power plants has been around 6.2% during 2015-16.

Power Generation during 2016-17 (April-November, 2016) is 777.506 Billion Units, showing a growth rate of 4.99% over the same period in previous year. Coal based power generation during the current year is 595.124 BU, showing a growth rate of 5.92% over the same period in the previous year.

Till September, 2016, a total of 3000 MW of inefficient thermal generating capacity has been retired. Measures initiated for reducing the generation cost of coal based power projects: Increasing supply of domestic coal; Coal usage flexibility; Rationalisation of coal linkages.

During the year 2016-17, 29 thermal stations, having total installed capacity of 13440.5 MW, are likely to be commissioned, out of which 9 projects with installed capacity of 3608.5 MW have already been commissioned till 31.10.2016. In-principle has been clearance given to replace 11000 MW Thermal Power Plants, older than 25 years, with Energy Efficient Super Critical Plants in about five years, with an investment of around Rs. 50,000 crores.

In Hydro power sector, 13 hydro stations, having total installed capacity of 1949 MW, are likely to be commissioned, out of which 5 projects with installed capacity of 320 MW have already been commissioned till 31.10.2016. Detailed Project Reports (DPRs) of 12 Hydroelectric Projects, with an aggregate installed capacity of 7,165 MW are under examination in CEA. The total power generated by hydro power projects in the country from 1st April, 2016 to 31st October, 2016 is 88306.78 MU (excluding power imported from Bhutan which is 4908.67 MU).

Transmission

During the 12th Plan period (2012-17), 1,00,468 ckm against the target of 1,07,440 ckm of transmission lines and 2,88,458 MVA against the target of 2,82,750 MVA of transformation capacity have been completed till 31st October, 2016.

 

“24×7 Power for All”: State specific Plans for 34 States/UTs under implementation;

National Energy Shortage reduces to 0.7%; 3.5% in North East

National Peak Power Deficit halved at 1.6%; 0.5% in North East

Free Electricity Connections to 2.5 crore (62%) BPL households released

Several landmark decisions have already been taken in thermal power generation, hydel and more importantly in solar, wind and other green energy, besides strengthening of transmission and distribution, separation of feeder and metering of power to consumers.  These also include not only achievements in capacity addition but also important reforms being undertaken on increasing energy efficiency of the present infrastructure and thereby reducing power losses.

The government has launched a scheme by providing support from Power System Development Fund (PSDF) for operationalization of stranded gas based generation. The outlay for the support from PSDF has been fixed at Rs. 3500 crores and Rs. 4000 crores for FY 2015-16 and FY 2016-17 respectively. 

Power Situation of North East Regions

As per information given by States / UTs to Central Electricity Authority (CEA), during the current year 2016-17 (April, 2016 to Oct., 2016), the peak power shortage in North Eastern Region (NER) has reduced to 0.5% from 8.4% during the corresponding period last year. Similarly, the energy shortage during current year has reduced to 3.5% from 6.9% during the corresponding period last year.

Modi govt may consider 5% duty hike on primary aluminium products

The mines ministry will recommend a 5% increase in import duty on primary aluminium products to Union finance minister Arun Jaitley in order to help ease the pressure of large scale cheap aluminium imports on domestic producers.

 

If implemented, the recommendation, which forms part of the mines ministry’s budget wishlist, will soften the blow to domestic producers like National Aluminium Company Ltd, Hindalco Industries Ltd and Vedanta Ltd, from imports that account for more than half of annual domestic consumption of 3.4 million tonnes of aluminium.

 

“The Aluminium Association of India (an industry group) recommended an increase of 7.5% in basic customs duty (BCD) in the wake of rising imports. We, however, will recommend a 5% increase,” said a mines ministry official, who preferred not to be named.

 

BCD on primary aluminium products such as ingots, billets, wire bars and rods is at 7.5% now, after a 2.5 percentage point increase was announced by Jaitley in the 2016-17 budget in February.

 

As per industry estimates, aluminium imports accounted for 54% of 1.68 million tonne of consumption in the first half of 2016-17. The share of imports was 51% in the full 2015-16 fiscal.

 

The industry has also sought protection from imports by way of a minimum import price of $2,066 per tonne. “We are examining this request as well and will take some action as quickly as possible,” said the official.

 

Surplus production capacity in China and muted commodity prices in world markets in the last few years have resulted in a progressive growth in the share of imported aluminium in the country’s consumption.

 

Domestic producers are also saddled with high interest costs, clean energy cess on coal, a fuel in bauxite processing, and high industrial power tariff, which make them less price competitive against imports.

 

“The high share of imports in domestic consumption is a major concern for the aluminium industry. Primary aluminium sector needs support by way of a minimum import price. In the case of steel industry, for example, where primary steel imports account for just 10-15% of domestic consumption, there is already a minimum import price to support domestic manufacturers,” said Abhijit Pati, chief executive officer, aluminium business at Vedanta Aluminium Ltd.

 

Domestic producers, however, are hopeful of consumption of aluminium increasing in the next few years from industries like automobiles, housing, packaging and power transmission.

 

Aluminium demand is expected to remain robust on account of rapid urbanization, power sector reforms and the steps taken by the government to boost the industrial production and infrastructure, Hindalco said in its outlook for the sector in its annual report for 2015-16.

 

According to an industry executive, who asked not to be named, primary aluminium producers have a combined debt of Rs70,000 crore.

There's every possibility of pacts with global leaders: SAIL Chairman

Indian steelmakers are progressively stepping up production of high strength lighter steel. In an interview, Steel Authority of India Ltd (SAIL) Chairman P K Singh tells Kunal Bose that any technology voids in making very high-grade steel here could be filled by securing partnerships with world industry leaders. Edited excerpts: 

 

 

A major hurdle to building ultra mega steel plants in India is to acquire large tracts of land without state help. The country wants to take a leap to 300 million tonnes (mt) capacity by 2030 from 120 mt currently for which land will be a challenge. Is that new big capacity then realisable?

 

 

The informed estimate is that around 90,000 acres needed to pack a capacity of 180 mt to achieve the 2030 target. A few leading steel groups, including SAIL, have much surplus land available with them that will allow building of 80 mt of new capacity. The challenge is then to find land to accommodate the remaining

100 mt capacity.

 

Parallel to attempts to buy land by promoters in their individual capacity, the ministry of steel has launched a programme to create infrastructure, including principally land in partnership with iron ore-rich states, such as Chhattisgarh, Jharkhand, Odisha and Karnataka, for hosting ultra mega mills with capacity of six mt and more. What is not to be lost sight of is that land requirement per mt capacity has shrunk considerably because of substitution of a few small blast furnaces by a very large one and other machines in the rolling and finishing sections becoming highly compact.

 

Future capacity expansion will create opportunities for steelmakers here to induct new generation technologies to make very high strength but lighter steel, as the likes of Nippon Steel and ArcelorMittal are already doing. Is that going to happen in India?

 

Yes, for sure. Some of us in the industry are progressively stepping up production of high strength lighter steel. The automobile industry, under pressure to improve fuel-efficiency of cars for these to conform to increasingly rigid emission standards, wants us to step up supply of what is called advanced high strength steel.

 

Margins of Indian steelmakers remain under pressure. Their research & development is not geared to make technology breakthroughs. In the circumstances, one sure way of making very high-grade steel such as electric grade steel and fending off competition from aluminium and composites will be to seek tie-ups with world industry leaders. Will SAIL walk this route?

 

Yes, there is every possibility of our entering into strategic partnerships with global industry leaders who are to bring both advanced process technologies and finances on a case to case basis. The industry has already in the country some joint ventures between Indian and foreign companies (one example is Tata Steel and Nippon Steel JV) in the high technology steelmaking space.

 

Is it not time the industry started arming itself with technologies that would allow iron making with ore fines and non-coking coal? Is this on SAIL radar?

 

The future will demand use of low-grade raw materials for production of good quality steel in the most economic way. The country is becoming increasingly dependent on coking coal import and we should be able to use the huge amount of ore fines ourselves that mines generate, instead of exporting. The challenge is to employ technologies which use low-grade ingredients available here in abundance after their beneficiation.

 

The technologies I have in mind will dispense with sintering and pelletising of ore fines and coke-making. As a result, not only will we have reduction in production cost but steelmaking will be more environment- friendly.

 

Is the industry seeking protection from imports because its production cost is higher than peers elsewhere or due to predatory pricing of steel products by China and some others?

 

The European Union and the US have trade protective actions in place to give relief to local steelmakers from unfair competition from low-priced imports. The Indian industry has not asked for anything more than a level playing field. Imposition of minimum import price and anti-dumping duty by New Delhi is based on incontrovertible evidence of imports causing injury to the local industry.

 

Why is Indian per capita steel consumption less than one-third of the world average of 208 kg? Is the industry doing anything meaningful to boost steel use, particularly in rural areas where it is negligible?

 

This should not be the case for the world’s fastest growing economy with strong focus on infrastructure development. The challenge is to educate people at all levels and in all geographies about versatile properties of the metal such as its long life, use flexibility, structure safety and recyclability. While the government has launched a massive campaign to promote steel use, leading steelmakers are also on the job.
