Singh, IAS Secretary, Power Department, Administration of Dadra and Nagar Haveli EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 24x7- Power for All (24x7 PFA) is a Joint Initiative of with corresponding increase in energy requirement Government of India (GoI) and State from 5304 MU in FY 15 to 7715 MU in FY 19. Governments/UT Administrations with the objective to provide 24x7 power available to all In the present conditions, the peak demand of 714 households, industry, commercial businesses, public MW in FY 15 was almost fully met owing to power needs, any other electricity consuming entity and allocation from central generating stations and adequate power to agriculture farm holdings by FY purchases on medium / long term basis by UT. 19. This roadmap document aims to meet the above However some of the industrial consumer are opting objectives for the UT of Dadra and Nagar Haveli. for open access and this issue may vary the projected energy & maximum demand of the UT in future. As per 2011 census, the population of UT of Dadra and Nagar Haveli was 3.44 lakhs. The power The future demands have been derived by department of UT has been corporatizes recently estimating household consumption after taking into and DNHPDCL is the distribution licensee in the UT. account the growth in number of electrified The UT has the highest per capita annual households on the one hand and the growth in consumption of 13,769 units (FY 15) in the country average consumption per household on the other which is way higher than national average of 1010 hand. It has also been assumed that un-electrified units during the same year (CEA). The same is due to consumers arrived as per census projection would about 97% industrial consumption in the UT. be electrified in FY 17. Individual category-wise growth rate equivalent to the 5 year CAGR has been considered for other than domestic sectors. CONNECTING THE UNCONNECTED Based on 2011 Census, there were around 3505 un- The daily household consumption has been electrified households in the UT but as per UT computed for households for FY 15 and escalated by Administration, there is no un-electrified household 9.23% annually in rural areas and urban areas (from in the UT at present. 4.66 units to 6.63 units) to arrive at the daily household consumption up to FY 19 while CAGR for non-domestic consumption has been taken at 8% FEEDER SEGREGATION growth rate for computation of demand by the end Keeping in view of the negligible sales in agriculture of FY19. category, the UT does not have any feeder segregation and also has not estimated any SUPPLY ADEQUACY expenditure on this account. UT does not has its own generation and is meeting the most of the demand through allocation from 24 X 7 SUPPLY Central Generating Stations. The present long-term The UT is already supplying power to the extent of availability of the state is 1028.30 MW from all 24 hours in urban areas and rural areas except for sources including share from unallocated quota from maintenance and operational issues. However, UT is Central Generating Stations. meeting the time line of power supply restoration as per the Standards of Performance notified by JERC. In FY 15 about 65% of the power was sourced from NTPC stations and 25% power from IPP (EMCO). GROWTH IN DEMAND Rest Power was drawn from nuclear and renewable based plants and from UI mechanism In order to achieve the objective of 24 x 7 supply in the state, the state would see an increase in peak In order to meet the increasing demand, the UT has demand from 714 MW in FY 15 to 1013 MW in FY 19 been allocated 168.07 MW from CGSs (tentative) in a phased manner by FY 19. The UT has also planned to consumers at 220 KV and 66 KV levels and keeping set-up or procure 94.27 MW solar power by in view the load incident at 66 KV and 11 KV, the investing Rs 126.39 Crores for own generation. existing transformation capacities are adequate.
