Figure 4.1Proposed ISTS Transmission To address above aspects and the Corridor for RE in Rajasthan intermittency nature of renewable energy generation, development of strong and reliable grid interconnections is important. There is a need to strengthen Interstate transmission which shall facilitate transfer of power outside the RE resource rich states.

In order to facilitate integration of large scale renewable generation capacity by 2018-19, a comprehensive transmission plan comprising of intra state and interstate transmission system strengthening has been evolved as a part of “Green Energy Corridors”. As part of this corridor, under ISTS four Nos. of 765/400kV substation would be established in Rajasthan i.e. at Chittorgarh, Bhadla, Ajmer & Suratgarh.

The corridor envisages high capacity 765kV D/c lines which would traverse across To facilitate pooling of power from various Rajasthan from Southern to Northern part of RE generations at various points of common Rajasthan as well as from Western to Central coupling (PCC), transfer to various load part. The corridor would connect major centres and interconnection with the ISTS renewable pockets in Rajasthan and would points - the intra state strengthening scheme facilitate export of power from Rajasthan. has been evolved by RVPN / PGCIL Further the corridor would be integrated with ISTS station at Moga. This would facilitate Summary of proposed Inter-state transmission Rajasthan to integrate with Hydro generation system strengthening schemes - for which complex of NR for facilitate balancing investment is to be made as a part of Green requirement.

The State Govt. is 5-6 years free replacement warrantee on providing subsidy of Rs 3.03 per unit of lamps against technical defects, distribution of energy consumption in Agriculture sector. As 3 LEDs to each household on getting back the per the DRP prepared by BEE in JVVNL for working ICLs and monitoring of projects as 1800 pump sets, the energy saving potential is per international standard methodology around 45%. Taking the average energy approved by CDM Executive Board for BLY. savings outcome of the two pilots, a 30% There are an estimated 12.6 million reduction in energy consumption and subsidy households in the state as per 2011 Census is possible by replacing all existing pumps data. Thus, the total energy savings from with star rated energy efficient pump sets. replacement of ICLs to DISCOMs will be The average pump sizes in JVVNL & 2100 MU annually at an investment of Rs. AVVNL are 6.5 KW, while in JDVVNL it is 1604 crores. Puducherry has become the first 16 KW. The estimated investment in state to undertake implementation of DELP replacement of 12 lakhs pump sets, taking an on a large scale. average cost of efficient pump sets to Rs.

In 2013-14, the commercial sector in the state existing lights with LEDs can lead to an of Rajasthan accounted for nearly 7% of the energy savings between 55-60%. In addition total energy consumption, i.e., 3226 MU of to energy savings, LED street lights also reduce maintenance costs as they come with which the targeted baseline for energy 5-7 years free replacement warranties enhance conservation is around 50% (i.e. 1613 MU) in the light output and meet national lighting the organized sector in buildings having standards, allow automatic controls to connected load greater than 100 kW or with enhance savings by remote switching, contract demand of 120 kVA or more. daylight savings and dimming. In addition, Techno-commercial analysis for energy LED lamps improve the power factor of the efficiency project implementation at Vidyut system and enhance the savings to DISCOMs. Replacement of all street lights with LEDs in Bhawan and Rajasthan Secretariat in Jaipur Rajasthan with an investment of around Rs. shows energy savings of 0.13 MU and 0.85 400 crores can lead to energy savings of 200 MU per annum with estimated investments of million units annually. Rs. 0.42 crores and Rs. 2.4 crores C. APPROACH / STRATEGY respectively. As per details available, energy savings to the tune of 30% are achievable in All the above interventions involve replacement of inefficient equipment / the end use functional areas of lighting, appliances with energy efficient ones for the cooling & ventilation, refrigeration, etc., agriculture, domestic, commercial buildings which can help the state alleviate 480 MU, and municipalities. These can be undertaken with an estimated investment requirement of by the State Govt. at no upfront cost by Rs. 720 Crores. In addition to these, Rajasthan using the Energy Service Company Government has already adopted Energy (ESCO) model. The model is based on the concept of promoting Performance Contract Conservation Building Code (ECBC) for new mode where the company invests in any commercial buildings, the effective project by entering into a contract agreement implementation of which will also result is with the facility owner which is recovered significant energy savings. through the savings accrued due to reduced electricity bills. The municipal sector accounted for 5% of the energy consumption, with public water works comprising 4% (1540 MU) and street lighting D. TIMELINES constituting of around 1% (389 MU). Various Agriculture Sector: energy audit studies have revealed a savings Under AgDSM, a plan to cover the entire 12 potential of 25% - 30% through replacement lakh pump sets is indicated below in Table 6. of inefficient drinking and sewage water 3.

8. OTHER INITIATIVES

8.1. COMMUNICATION Successful implementation of 24X7 Power Supply Scheme requires clear communication among all the stakeholders across the value chain, including the consumers. In order to avoid potential roadblocks in implementation due to poor communication and flow of information, the following table lists the primary responsibility of each stakeholder and the corresponding method in which it will be carried out. A centralized corporate communication team can be formed at headquarters of the DISCOM for looking at activities of overall communication strategy. The financial situation in Rajasthan makes it imperative to raise tariffs while other initiatives including 24X7 supply are implemented. Such tariff increases would inevitably impact consumers and meet with resistance. To address this, the utilities would clearly communicate their plans on implementing the reliable 24X7 supply scheme along with the other reliability and efficiency improvement measures that they are implementing. A high level of involvement of the Government of Rajasthan will also be required. Table: Proposed communication responsibilities

Annexure XI

Sensitivity Analysis and Results

The table below lists the parameters for which sensitivity analysis has been conducted.

Sensitivity Analysis S no. Sensitivity Analysis 1 Faster AT&C Loss reduction 2 Slower AT&C Loss reduction 3 Lower tariff increases 4 Higher tariff increases (doubled) in first two years 5 Power purchase costs optimized (rates reduced by average of 5%) 6 Interest pay-outs on past STL capitalized for 2 additional years - till FY 17, instead of FY 15 7 Interest rate reduction of 2 percent fo r STL for FY 15 and FY 16 8 Higher Rural supply/associated investment costs 9 Lower/more efficient consumption in households 10 Lower Agricultural Sales Growth

i. Sensitivity to AT&C Loss Reduction

High and Low reduction in AT&C losses, relative to the base case reduction, has been considered in this analysis

Base Case and Sensitivity Scenario (AT & C losses)

Scenario Assumptions 2014-15 2015-16 2016-17 2017-18 2018-19 21.75% 20.00% 18.50% 17.25% 16.00% Base Case Loss Trajectory 24.40% Sensitivity: High Reduction Case Loss Trajectory 22.06% 19.72% 17.38% 15.04% (2.34% / year) to reach ~ 15 % by FY 2018-19 25.74% Sensitivity: Low Reduction Case Loss Trajectory (1 % / Year) 24.74% 23.74% 22.74% 21.74%

Base Case and Sensitivity Scenario (Percentage Change Per Year)

Scenario Assumptions 2014-15 2015-16 2016-17 2017-18 2018-19 5.0% Base Case Loss Trajectory 1.8% 1.5% 1.3% 1.3%

Sensitivity: High Reduction Case Loss 2.34% 2.34% 2.34% 2.34% 2.34% Trajectory (2.34% / year) to reach ~ 15 % by FY 2018-19 Sensitivity: Low Reduction Case Loss Trajectory (1 % / Year) 1.00% 1.00% 1.00% 1.00% 1.00%

Result: The table below shows the impact on Financial Gap under the three scenarios listed above. Clearly, higher AT&C loss reduction has a significant impact on the Financial Gap. Without the past liabilities impact, the state can return to profitability by 2016-17 even with low AT&C loss reduction. Impact of AT&C Loss Reduction - Rs./Kwh

With Past Liability Impact 2013- 2014- 2015- 2016 2017 2018- 14 15 16 -17 -18 19 Base Case (2.02) (1.58) (1.06) (0.62) (0.45) (0.29) Sensitivity: High Reduction Case Loss Trajectory (2.02) (1.76) (1.22) (0.74) (0.51) (0.28) Sensitivity: Low Reduction Case Loss Trajectory (2.02) (1.86) (1.42) (1.06) (0.95) (0.85) Without Past Liability Impact

Base Case (1.33) (0.86) (0.00) 0.65 0.75 0.84 Sensitivity: High Reduction Case (1.33) (1.03) (0.14) 0.58 0.74 0.90 Loss Trajectory Sensitivity: Low Reduction Case Loss Trajectory (1.33) (1.12) (0.32) 0.31 0.39 0.47

ii. Sensitivities to Tariff Increase

Low tariff increase (4% per year) and higher increase in first 3 years (16% per year) has been assumed to analyze the sensitivity of financial Gap to extent of tariff revisions. Base Case and Sensitivity Scenario (Percentage) Scenario Assumptions 2014 -15 2015 -16 2016 -17 2017 -18 2018 -19 Average Tariff: Base Case 10.0% 18.0% 10.0% 8.0% 4.0% (as per GoR inputs) Sensitivity: L ow Tariff Increase 4.38% 4.38% 4.31% 4.29% 4.18% (~ 4% / year) Sensitivity: Higher Tariff Increase (first 3 years) - 16.00% 16.00% 16.00% 8.30% 8.19% 16% / year for year 1,2 and 3, followed by ~ 8%/year Base Case and Sensitivity Scenario (Rs. / Unit)

Scenario Assumptions 2014-15 2015-16 2016-17 2017-18 2018-19 Average Tariff: Base Case (as per GoR inputs) 5.33 6.29 6.92 7.47 7.77

Sensitivity: Low Tariff Increase (~ 4%/year) 5.06 5.28 5.51 5.74 5.98

Sensitivity: Higher Tariff Increase (first 3 years) - 5.62 6.52 7.56 8.19 8.86 16%/year for year 1,2 and 3, followed by 8%/year

Result: The table below shows the impact on Financial Gap in the tariff hike scenarios listed above. As seen in the table below, a high tariff increase in the first 3 years leads to considerable impact on Financial Gap. Including past liabilities, the state is expected to eliminate its losses by 2016-17. Impact of Tariff Increase - Rs./Kwh With Past Liability Impact 2013-14 2014-15 2015-16 2016-17 2017-18 2018-19

Base Case (2.02) (1.58) (1.06) (0.62) (0.45) (0.29)

Sensitivity: Low Tariff Increase (2.02) (1.87) (2.17) (2.29) (2.64) (2.76)

Sensitivity: Higher Tariff Increase (first 3 (2.02) (1.27) (0.77) 0.14 0.46 1.11 years) Without Past Liability Impact

Base Case (1.33) (0.86) (0.00) 0.65 0.75 0.84

Sensitivity: Low Tariff Increase (1.33) (1.13) (1.02) (0.77) (0.99) (0.96)

Sensitivity: Higher Tariff Increase (first 3 (1.33) (0.56) 0.23 1.30 1.48 1.94 years)

iii. Sensitivity to Cost of Power Procurement

A 5% average reduction in power purchase costs over the base case has been assumed.

Base Case and Sensitivity Scenario

Scenario Assumptions 2014-15 2015-16 2016-17 2017-18 2018-19

Base Case Power Purchase Cost (Rs. Cr.) 22341 25511 28472 34960 40773

Sensitivity: 5% Lower Power Purchase Cost (Rs. Cr.) 21113 24108 26906 33037 38530

Result: The table below shows the impact on Financial Gap. Clearly, the lowering of procurement costs, which make up close to 70% of the total costs of Discoms, has a significant impact on the existing Financial Gap levels. Impact of Power Purchase Cost Reduction - Rs./Kwh With Past Liability Impact 2013-14 2014-15 2015-16 2016-17 2017-18 2018-19

Base Case (2.02) (1.58) (1.06) (0.62) (0.45) (0.29) Sensitivity: Lower PP Cost (2.02) (1.30) (0.74) (0.27) (0.04) 0.17 Without Past Liability Impact

Base Case (1.33) (0.86) (0.00) 0.65 0.75 0.84 Sensitivity: Lower PP Cost (1.33) (0.60) 0.26 0.92 1.05 1.15

iv. Sensitivity to Interest Payments

To analyse the sensitivity to interest payment, interest on past STL is assumed to be capitalized for additional 2 years, beyond FY15. Also, another case in which Interest on Loans for first two years (FY 15 and FY 16) has been assumed to be reduced to 10% has been considered. Result:

The table below shows the impact on Financial Gap.

Impact of Additional Interest Capitalization/Reduction - Rs. /Kwh With Past Liability Impact 2013-14 2014-15 2015-16 2016-17 2017-18 2018-19 Base Case (2.02) (1.58) (1.06) (0.62) (0.45) (0.29) Sensitivity: Additional 2 year capitalization of (2.02) (1.58) (0.78) (0.10) (0.20) (0.28) interest on STL Sensitivity: STL Interest Reduced to 10% (FY (2.02) (1.45) (0.86) (0.36) (0.39) (0.23) 15 to 17) Without Past Liability Impact

Base Case (1.33) (0.86) (0.00) 0.65 0.75 0.84 Sensitivity: Additional 2 year capitalization of (1.33) (0.86) (0.00) 0.65 0.75 0.84 interest on STL Sensitivity: STL Interest Reduced to 10% (FY (1.33) (0.86) (0.00) 0.65 0.75 0.84 15 to 17)

v. Sensitivity to Investment Costs

To analyze the sensitivity to investment costs, Higher Investment Costs (Rural Electrification and Feeder Improvement Costs increased by 50%) have been assumed. Base Case and Sensitivity Scenario

Scenario Assumptions 2014-15 2015-16 2016-17 2017-18 2018-19 Base Case RE & Feeder Segregation Capex 2650 950 - - -

Sensitivity: High Capex 2650 1700 750

Result: The table below shows the impact on Financial Gap. Considering that other parameters improve as per the base case, Higher Capex has a negligible impact on the Financial Gap.

Impact of Higher Investment Costs - Rs./Kwh With Past Liability Impact 2013-14 2014-15 2015-16 2016-17 2017-18 2018-19 Base Case (2.02) (1.58) (1.06) (0.62) (0.45) (0.29) Sensitivity: High Capex (2.50) (1.89) (1.23) (0.78) (0.61) (0.41) Without Past Liability Impact

Base Case (1.33) (0.86) (0.00) 0.65 0.75 0.84 Sensitivity: High Capex (1.79) (0.92) (0.13) 0.48 0.62 0.71

vi. Sensitivity to Consumption

For more energy efficient consumption, Urban and rural household consumption is assumed to reduce by 10%, 2016-17 onwards. Base Case and Sensitivity Scenario

Scenario Assumptions 2014-15 2015-16 2016-17 2017-18 2018-19 Base Case Urban and Rural Consumption - kwh p er HH 5.5 & 2 6.1 & 2.3 6.8 & 2.5 7.4 & 8 & 3 2.75 Sensitivity: 10% Lower Consumption from FY 18 5.5 & 2 6.1 & 2.3 6.1 & 2.3 6.6 & 2.5 7.2 & 2.7

Result: The table below shows the impact on Financial Gap. The CoS increases because lesser units are sold for the same infrastructure/O&M costs. However, if the higher AT&C losses and lower ABR for small customers are taken into account, Energy Efficiency would increase gains and reduce subsidy burden. Impact of Efficient Energy Consumption - - Rs./Kwh With P ast Liability Impact 2013-14 2014-15 2015-16 2016-17 2017-18 2018-19 Base Case (2.02) (1.58) (1.06) (0.62) (0.45) (0.29) Sensitivity: Energy Efficient (2.02) (1.58) (1.06) (0.69) (0.55) (0.40) Consumption Without Past Liability Impact

Ba se Case (1.33) (0.86) (0.00) 0.65 0.75 0.84 Sensitivity: Energy Efficient (1.33) (0.86) (0.00) 0.62 0.70 0.78 Consumption

vii. Sensitivity to Agriculture Sales Growth

Sensitivity has been analyzed by reducing the growth rate of agricultural sales in the future years.

Base Case and Sensitivity Scenario

Scenario Assumptions 2014-15 2015-16 2016-17 2017-18 2018-19 Base Case: 9.5% p.a 9.50% 9.50% 9.50% 9.50% 9.50% Sensitivity: 4% p.a 4% 4% 4% 4% 4%

Result: The table below shows the impact on Financial Gap. Lower agricultural growth rate has a significant impact on the financial gap. Impact of Agri.
