Significant Feature of Electricity Act, 2003


1. Generation has been delicensed and captive generation freely permitted.i.e. Any generating company may establish, operate and maintain a generating station without obtaining a licence under this Act with only exception that it should comply with the technical standards relating to connectivity with the grid. 2. No person shall (a) transmit electricity; or (b) distribute electricity; or (c) undertake trading in electricity, unless he is authorised to do so by a licence issued, exceptions informed by authorised commissions through notifications 3 Open access in transmission with provision for surcharge for taking care of current level of cross subsidy, with the surcharge being gradually phased out.

Significant featuresContud
4. The state government required to unbundle State Electricity boards. However they may continue with them as distribution licensees and state transmission utilities 5. Setting up state electricity regulatory commission (SERC) made mandatory 6. An appellate tribunal to hear appeals against the decision of CERC's and SERC's 7 Metering of electricity supplied made mandatory 8 Trading as, a distinct activity recognised with the safeguard of Regulatory commissions being authorised to fix ceiling on trading margins.

DEFINITION OF OPEN ACCESS IN THE ELECTRICITY ACT, 2003 (Section 2(47) of


Electricity Act 2003)

Open Access means the non-discriminatory provision for the use of transmission lines or distribution system or associated facilities with such lines or system by any licensee, or consumer, or a person engaged in generation in accordance with the regulations specified by the Appropriate Commission. CTU Functions 38(2)(d) STU Functions 39(2)(d) Transmission Licensees duties 40(c) Distribution licensee duties 42(2)

EA Section11 (Directions to generating companies

11. (1) The Appropriate Government may specify that a generating company shall, in extraordinary circumstances operate and maintain any generating station in accordance with the directions of that Government. Explanation. - For the purposes of this section, the expression extraordinary circumstances means circumstances arising out of threat to security of the State public order or a natural calamity or such other circumstances arising in the public interest. (2) The Appropriate Commission may offset the adverse financial impact of the directions referred to in subsection (1) on any generating company in such manner as it considers appropriate

3/12/2013

What is Congestion charge


That the congestion charge is a tool to relieve congestion

through commercial signals.


When it is imposed

When demand for transmission capacity exceeds the Available Transfer Capability limits.
This could happen due to following reasons:

Severe high demand conditions towards one region forcing most of the power to rush towards that. Severe load crash conditions in a region resulting into large export of power from that region to other regions. Skewed load generation pattern between two regions which could be combination of first two factors. Widely prevailing market factors forcing the cheaper generation in one region trying to replace the costlier generation in the other.

Mathematically ATC is the Total Transfer Capability less Transmission Reliability Margin. means a situation where the demand for transmission capacity exceeds the Available Transmission Capability; means the supplementary charge kicked in on one or more Regional entities in one or more Regions for transmission of power from one Region to another or from one State to another within a Region when the deviations from the schedule cause the net drawal of power in the interregional or intra-regional transmission links to go beyond the Total Transfer Capability limit;

Chapter III: Congestion charge account


As per CERCs order (dated 8th Jan2010) congestion

charge is fixed at Rs.5.45/kwh, in accordance with the then existing UI rates.


Rationale Congestion charge shall be equal to the difference of maximum UI rate and UI at 50.0Hz,ie Rs.7.35- Rs.1.92=Rs.5.43 This is because the maximum UI rate is equal to the energy charge of

liquid fuel, so any over drawing state at frequency just below 50Hz. through a congestion corridor shall be encouraged to utilize own liquid generation rather than over drawing through a congested corridor, with a price more than liquid fuel variable cost.

Congestion Charge Account.. contd


Each Regional Load Despatch Centre shall maintain a separate bank

account called Congestion Charge Account wherein all money received on account of congestion charge shall be credited. The amount standing to the credit of Congestion Charge Account, if any, shall be transferred to a Fund at regular intervals as per methodology notified by the Commission.
Congestion charge account shall presently be maintained and

operated by the Regional Load Despatch Centre in the same manner as the account for Unscheduled Interchange Charges. Provided that Congestion Charge Account may be maintained by any other entity as the Commission may direct by notification from time to time.

Issuues & concerns

Congestion in the transmission network is being experienced even though the frequency is operating in normal band and/or frequently hovering around the nominal value of 50 Hz.

Imposition of congestion charge linked with the system frequency i.e. At frequency below 50 Hz, congestion charge would be levied for overdrawal in the importing control area and at frequencies above 50 Hz., congestion charge would be levied for under-drawal in the exporting control area, it is observed that in a large grid many a times the action either only upstream or downstream of congested corridor is not enough to quickly decongest the network and efforts from the utilities on both the sides are equally important. Congestion charge may be applied on entities both upstream as well as downstream of congested corridor irrespective of frequency. Accordingly Clause 6.2 of the detailed procedure require a review
