CHAPTER -VI - POWER |
MADHYA PRADESH ELECTRICITY BOARD
Un-interrupted and adequate power supply is essential for the progress of the State. Two important major sectors of the economy, agriculture and industry are dependent on the power sector. The emphasis during the Eighth Plan was to take up a number of hydel projects so that a proper thermal- hydro mix could be created for improving the power supply. Rural electrification has also been intensified.
The installed capacity of power generation was 4025.75 MW as on March '1999 comprising of 3177.5 MW thermal and 848.25 MW of hydel capacity. In view of the limited financial resources in the public sector and in consonance with the policy of the central govt., the Govt. of M.P. has handed over 17 major generation projects to private sector with aggregate installed capacity of 6813 MW. Out of these 17 projects, the power purchase agreements have been signed for 13 projects, having a total capacity of 5340 MW. However, financial closure is het to be achieved.
The total installed generation capacity incurred by 210 MW in 1998-99 with the commissoning of the third unit of the Sanjay Gandhi TPS extension in Feburary' 99.
However, only a restructed peack demand of 5185 MW could be met, leabing a gap of 714 MW (12.1 %), inspite of increase in PLF to 68.18% in 1998-99. Nearly 95.43 % villages in the state have been electrified.
2.Ninth Five Year Plan 1997-2002
2.1 The main objectives are un-interruped and adequate powersupply to agriculture and industry completion of of ongoing projects, renovation and modernisation of Thermal schemes, expansion and strengthening of transmission and distrubution system and electrification of villages and pumps energisation.
2.2 Approved outlay for 9th Plan is Rs. 283961.00 lakhs.
2.3 Salient features of projects being taken up during the 9th Plan are as under :-
2.3.1 Ongoing/approved generation projects :
i) Sanjay Gandhi TPS Extension Unit-III & IV (2x210 MW)
The 3rd and 4th Unit of this project are scheduled to be commissioned.
ii) Rajghat Inter-State HEP (3x15 MW) : This multipurpose Inter state project is to be commissioned.
iii)Ban Sagar Tons HEP (405 MW) : The Phase-I with three Units of 105 MW each is under commercial operation but the generation is possible during monsoon period only due to non completion of Bansagar dam. The Phase-II (2x15 MW) and Phase III (3x20 MW) are under construction and are programmed to be commissioned.
iv) Ban Sagar Tons HEP Phase-IV (2x10 MW): The above project is scheduled to be commissioned during 9th Plan. However, this will depend on completion of Bansagar dam.
v) Renovation and Modernisation of Thermal Power Stations :Renovation and modernisation schemes of old thermal power sations are being implemented for extension in the life of the plants, improvement in availability of the old generating sets, reduction in maintenance , improvement in environment by reducing ash emission etc.
vi) Transmission, Distribution and System Improvement Scheme :
- Greater emphasis is being given to the expansion and strenghening of T & D system. It is proposed to further reduce the T & D losses to 17 % by the end of Ninth Plan.
2.3.2 Rural Electrification :
Out of the total 71526 inhabited villages in the State, 67534 villages have been electrified thereby achieving 94 % level of village electrification. The physical programme proposed for 9th Plan is as follows :-
a. Village electrification - 1750 Nos.
b. Electrification of Majras and Tolas - 2500 Nos.
c. Energisation of agricultural pumps - 60000 Nos.

NON-CONVENTIONAL SOURCES OF ENERGY (UVN) |
MP Urja Vikas Nigam was constituted by the Government of Madhya Pradesh in August 1982. The Nigam is undertaking programmes relating to generation of energy from solar, wind, biogas and biomass sources. Its activities are focused mainly on solar water heating system, solar cookers, national programme of improved Chulha, integrated rural energy programme and solar photovaltic power packs.
2. Ninth Five Year Plan 1997-2002 :
2.1 The main objective is to propagete and develop various instruments for non-conventional sources of energy in view of shortage of fuel. The strategy would be to populerise various instruments developed by the Govt. of India specially for rural areas and rural poor in particular.
2.1.1 In the 9th Five Year Plan, M.P. Urja Vikas Nigam proposesto implement the following programmes :-
i) Solar Cooker : In order to save conventional fuels, application of solar energy for cooking purposes shall be propagated. In 9th Plan subsidy on Solar Cooker shall be provided only in Rural areas. A target of 12500 Cookers is proposed.
ii) Bio-Gas : As an alternative cooking device, construction of domestic Biogas plants in the rural areas shall be taken up. It is proposed to construct 890 domestic Biogas Plants.
iii)Improved Chulha : Jungle wood is used as a fuel in the conventional chulas for cooking food. Under the National Programme of improved chulhas, fixed and portable chulhas are installed. In the 9th Plan, a target of installation of 36000 chulas has been proposed.
iv) Power Generation : Looking to the shortage of electrical energy, it is essential to implement alternative energy sources for generation of electricity.
