INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES

All over the world, the electric power industry is going through a deep transformation for various economic and technical reasons. The typical transformation is in the area of structure, organization and operation of power industry. The industry has been regulated for almost a century and the Electricity Act 1910 was the first act that was introduced to govern the Indian power sector. The Electricity (Supply) Act 1948 was introduced after independence, but it did not achieve the desired results, as the power sectors performance started to deteriorate and a need was felt to restructure the sector. Several regulatory changes were made since 1991, which transformed the industrys performance. It has been more than one decade since the E Act 2003 was passed. Many of the new policies, guidelines and regulations required by the E Act have been put in place and others will be put in place soon. Regulation of the sector has also matured with the passage of almost 15 years since the first electricity regulatory commissions were installed. In this context, it is time for us to come together in order to deepen our understanding of the nature of these changes and their impact on society. To facilitate this, NIT Jamshedpur is organizing a two day workshop on the status of power sector reforms in India. The purpose of the workshop
is many fold.

It will provide an opportunity to inform ourselves of activities in the different states and to share experiences across states so that we can learn from each other and chart out future course of action. To discuss the regulatory regime in the Power Sector To explain the need for regulation and the role that public should play To discuss areas where public intervention can take place in the regulatory process.
