The Committee had extensive consultations with the Ministry of New and Renewable Energy and also undertook a site visit to M/s OREVA Small Hydro Power Project on River Curzon at Narmada, Gujarat. 4. The Committee focused on the potential and installed capacity, incentive scheme, issues and policy and hindrances relating to development of small hydro power. After the series of discussions and consultations, keeping in view the Government of India‟s ambitious renewable power mission of 1,75,000 MW by 2022, the Committee feel that there is a need to give greater importance/priority to mini/small hydro power projects, so as to supplement the generation/supply of power with the solar/renewable power generation. The observations/recommendations suggested by the Committee in this regard are given in the following chapter. 5. The Report was considered and adopted by the Committee at their sitting held on 9th March, 2016. 6. The Committee wish to express their thanks to the officers of the Ministry of New and Renewable Energy for their valuable assistance. NEW DELHI DR. KIRIT SOMAIYA 10th March, 2016 Chairperson Phalguna 20, 1937 (Saka) Standing Committee on Energy 8 REPORT PART I Narration Analysis I. Introductory 1.1 The Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (MNRE) has been allocated the business of micro/ mini/ small hydropower plants up to 25 MW station capacity. Electricity and electricity generated from hydro projects is a subject in the concurrent list, and subject of both the Union and State Governments. However, water being a subject in the State List, the Small Hydro Power (SHP) projects are governed by State policies. The decision of setting up SHP projects or its allotment is taken by the State Government. The expression of interests/ proposals/bids from private developers are invited by the State Government. The Techno-Economic Clearances (TEC)/ approvals for the SHP projects are provided by the State Government concerned. The MNRE have stated that they do not set up or allocate small hydro project. 1.2. However, the Ministry of New and Renewable Energy has been providing Central Financial Assistance to State Governments and the private sector to set up small / mini hydro projects. The Ministry is also organizing technical support towards survey and investigation, preparation of Detailed Project Reports (DPRs), project monitoring and training through the Alternate Hydro Energy Center (AHEC), IIT Roorkee. 1.3. According to the Ministry, the SHP programme in India now is largely private investment driven. Generally, SHP projects are economically viable and the private sector has been showing interest to set up SHP projects. The viability of these projects is normally directly proportional to the capacity of the project. Most of the States with reasonably high SHP potential have been interested in allotting the projects to the private sector for implementation and operation. 9 1.4 It has been reported that the total installed capacity of small hydro projects, at the end of the 11th Plan, was 3395 MW. This was achieved by adding an aggregate capacity of 1419 MW during 2007-2012. There has been a decline in the capacity addition from small hydro in the last two years. The cost of project has gone up and tariff given to the power generated from SHP projects is no more attractive and not supporting investments. The low rate of average pool power purchase rate in hydro rich States and non-sale of Renewable Energy Certificates in the open market are some of the other reasons for the declining interest in the SHP sector. For the year 2014-15, the target was 250 MW. During the year, SHP projects aggregating to a capacity of 187.15 MW (up to 31.12.2014) have been commissioned, both in the commercial and State Sector. In cumulative terms, 1019 small hydropower projects aggregating to 3990.90 MW have been set up in various parts of the country. In addition, 233 projects of about 747.66 MW are in various stages of implementation. 1.5 In order to revive the interest of the States and the private sector, the Ministry has revised its incentive scheme during the current year. The Ministry is providing financial assistance in the form of grants /subsidy under the following schemes / activities: i) Resource assessment and support for identification of new sites: ii) Scheme to support for setting up new SHP projects in the private/ co-operative/ joint sector, etc. iii) Scheme to support for setting up new SHP projects in the Government Sector. iv) Scheme to support for Renovation and Modernization of existing SHP projects v) Scheme to support for development/Upgradation of Water Mills (mechanical/ electrical output) and setting up Micro Hydel Projects (up to 100KW capacity). vi) Research & Development and Human Resource Development. 1.6 It has also been stated that small hydel projects normally do not encounter the problems associated with large hydel projects like deforestation and resettlement. The projects have potential to meet the power requirements of remote and isolated areas. 10 These factors make small hydel as one of the most attractive renewable sources of grid quality power generation. 23 States of the country have policies in place towards private sector participation to set up SHP projects. 1.7. The Ministry has been taking a series of steps to promote development of SHP and to improve reliability and quality of the projects. By giving various physical and financial incentives, investments have been attracted in commercial SHP projects apart from subsidizing State Governments to set up small hydro projects. The Ministry is giving special emphasis to promote use of new and efficient designs of water mills for mechanical as well as electricity generation and setting up of micro hydel projects up to 100 KW for remote village electrification. These projects are taken up with the involvement of local organizations such as the Water Mills Associations, cooperative societies, registered NGOs, village energy cooperatives, and State Nodal Agencies. 1.8. The Ministry has also reported that so far, 1047 small hydropower projects aggregating to 4146 MW have been set up in various parts of the country and 206 projects of about 591 MW are in various stages of implementation.
