Source: Planning Department, U.P. as per Annual Plan 2014-15 

Power is the engine of growth of any developing economy. Consumption of electrical energy is a universally accepted indicator of progress in the agricultural, industrial and commercial sectors, as also of the well being of the people of the State. No major economic activity can be sustained without adequate and reliable supply of power. It plays a critical role in employment generation, regional development and poverty eradication. With rapid social, economic and industrial development of the state, the demand for electricity is increasing. In order to keep the on going pace of development, the State has recognized the need for generation capacity augmentation, strengthening and augmentation of transmission and distribution network. Prevention of theft of electricity, reduction in system distribution losses and Energy conservation will also help in reducing the load/demand on the distribution system and help in providing quality supply of electricity to consumers. Presently Uttar Pradesh is facing a peak shortfall of 2000-2500 MW. As per Eighteenth EPS, the peak demand for Uttar Pradesh by the end of 12th Plan is estimated at around 23081 MW.

 

Expected Demand & Availability

The demand of power in the State of Uttar Pradesh is expected to increase significantly in the years to come and to meet this demand there is an urgent need to augment the generation capacity in the state. To meet this objective and ensure availability of 650 Kwh. per capita by the end of 2017, the Govt. of Uttar Pradesh has encouraged Private Participation in the Power Sector. Following table shows the projection of demand and availability in XII Plan:

As proposed in 12th Five Year Plan, Renovation & Modernization(R&M) work of reservoir based Rihand (300 MW), Obra (99 MW) & Matatila (30.6 MW) hydro power stations will continue as such these will provide fresh lease of useful life to plant and machineries alongwith better and modern technology resulting in better efficiency, operational ease and lesser maintenance as well as bringing break down/outages to bare minimum, which shall ensure minimum loss of generation. For R&M activities of projects in 12th Five Year Plan, proposal has already been sent to U.P. Govt. No plan outlay (under Plan) has been proposed, however under Outside Plan Outlay, Rs. 300.00 lacs for Rihand, Rs. 100.00 lacs for Obra(H) & Rs. 100.00 lacs for Matatila was proposed from internal resource. 


Based on RLA Study for Renovation & Modernization of the 65-70 years old U.G.C. projects (Nirgazini-5.0 MW, Chittaura-3.0MW, Salawa-3.0 MW & Bhola-2.7 MW) Nigam decided to construct new power house of higher capacity at adjoining sites. As per earlier order of the U.P. Govt. These Projects were to be developed under Upper Ganga Canal Express Way Project in Private Sector under PPP mode, but presently due to delay in execution of Express Way Project hese projects are taken out and are to be developed in private sector under PPP mode. However, if private developer does not show their interest in these projects the same shall be developed by UPJVNL itself.


Besides completion of above mentioned renovation and modernization works, Nigam is in process to construct Khara Small Hydro Project (2x750KW=1500KW) in Distt. Saharanpur under new Scheme during 12th Five Year Plan. Approval for construction has already been accorded by U.P. Govt. This project is likely to be completed by June 2015.
In addition to this, as per Govt. Policy, after identification, U.P. Jal Vidyut Nigam Ltd. has processed to establish following 10 new Small Hydro Electric Projects under the aegis of PPP mode.

 

  1. 5 no. SHPs (Ramganga-3.2 MW, Madho-I-3.75 MW, Madho II-2.5 MW, Dunda -3.5 MW and Bandraun-14.0 MW) have been allotted to private developer after selection on the basis of competitive tariff based bidding. The developer has submitted Detailed Project Reports for 04 SHPs except Bandraun which is found unviable. DPR’s of 04 SHP’s have been sent to Irrigation Department for issuing of No Objection Certificate. The matter related for dropping Bandraun SHP which is not viable, is being referred to ETF.
  2. After rebidding of 04 nos. Projects (Khairi-3.75 MW, Shahjahanpur Nahil -2.5 MW, Karmnasa -2.0 MW and Sharda Sagar -1.5 MW) bids for only one SHP, Sharda Sagar was received. After evaluation of the Bid, the Tariff quoted by the L-1 bidder is higher, therefore ETF has directed for rebidding of the project.

U.P. Jal Vidyut Nigam Ltd. (Hydro Generation) 


There has been rising demand of power during the last decade but due to various reasons its production has not been raised to meet out the demand.  Installed capacity of Hydro Power Stations in Uttar Pradesh is very low compared to thermal power installed capacity. Consequent upon the creation of new state of Uttaranchal in the year 2000, major portion of the installed hydro generation capacity and the hydro power potential are now located in Uttaranchal while Uttar Pradesh is left with limited possibilities of hydro power potential available only on canals and Dam toes. At the beginning of 12th plan, the present installed hydro generating capacity in the state under UPJVNL is 526.7 MW. The power station wise generation details for F.Y. 2012-13 & F.Y. 2013-14 are given as below:

As proposed in 12th Five Year Plan, Renovation & Modernization(R&M) work of reservoir based Rihand (300 MW), Obra (99 MW) & Matatila (30.6 MW) hydro power stations will continue as such these will provide fresh lease of useful life to plant and machineries alongwith better and modern technology resulting in better efficiency, operational ease and lesser maintenance as well as bringing break down/outages to bare minimum, which shall ensure minimum loss of generation. For R&M activities of projects in 12th Five Year Plan, proposal has already been sent to U.P. Govt. No plan outlay (under Plan) has been proposed, however under Outside Plan Outlay, Rs. 300.00 lacs for Rihand, Rs. 100.00 lacs for Obra(H) & Rs. 100.00 lacs for Matatila was proposed from internal resource. 


Based on RLA Study for Renovation & Modernization of the 65-70 years old U.G.C. projects (Nirgazini-5.0 MW, Chittaura-3.0MW, Salawa-3.0 MW & Bhola-2.7 MW) Nigam decided to construct new power house of higher capacity at adjoining sites. As per earlier order of the U.P. Govt. These Projects were to be developed under Upper Ganga Canal Express Way Project in Private Sector under PPP mode, but presently due to delay in execution of Express Way Project hese projects are taken out and are to be developed in private sector under PPP mode. However, if private developer does not show their interest in these projects the same shall be developed by UPJVNL itself.
