LOAD GENERATION BALANCE
LOAD DIVERSITY The unique load curve of different identities due to varied nature of load / requirements results in the overall load diversity.
DEMAND ESTIMATION Availability = Own Generation (+) Entitlement from Grid (+) Bilaterals
ENTITLEMENTS = Fixed Shares + Unallocated Shares
FIXED SHARES Allocation to States from the Central Sector Stations in terms of Percentages which generally remain fixed. UNALLOCATED SHARES Allocation to States from Central Sector Stations in terms of Percentages which are changed on seasonal basis and / or under typical conditions as decided by Govt. of India.

Payment to Inter State Generating Stations (ISGS) from beneficiaries under Availability Based Tariff (ABT) Capacity charges Energy charges Unscheduled Interchange (UI)
CAPACITY CHARGE Capacity charge will be related to ‘availability’ of the generating station and the percentage capacity allocated to the state. ‘Availability’ for this purpose means the readiness of the generating station to deliver ex-bus output expressed as a percentage of its rated ex-bus output capability.
ENERGY CHARGE Energy charges shall be worked out on the basis of a paise per kwh rate on ex-bus energy scheduled to be sent out from the generating station as per the following formula Energy charges = Rate of energy charges (paise/kwh) x Scheduled Generation (ex-bus MWh)

UNSCHEDULED INTERCHANGE (U I) : Variation in actual generation / drawal with respect to scheduled generation / drawal shall be accounted for through Unscheduled Interchange (UI). UI for generating station shall be equal to its total actual generation minus its scheduled generation. UI for beneficiary shall be equal to its total actual drawal minus its total scheduled drawal.
UNSCHEDULED INTERCHANGE (UI) RATES Average frequency of 15 minute time block UI Rate (Paise / KWh) 50.5 Hz & Above0.0 Below Hz & up to Hz 8.0 Below Hz & up to Hz Below Hz600.0 Between Hz & Hz Linear in 0.02 Hz step
FREQUENCY vs UI PRICE FREQUENCY PAISE/UNIT 49 HZ 50.5 HZ 49.5 HZ 50 HZ 49.5 HZ CORRESPONDS TO RS.4.00 UI PRICE AND FREQUENCY
UNSCHEDULED INTERCHANGES (UI) I.E. DEVIATIONS FROM SCHEDULES Makes all the players in the grid self-responsive and enhances merit order. Good UI helps in improving frequency and enables one constituent to help the other (for meeting more consumer demand i.e reducing load shedding) UI provides the mechanism for on-line displacement of costlier generation by cheaper generation : ultimate optimisation.
REACTIVE ENERGY CHARGES Under ABT, a reactive energy charge in paise/kwh is applicable. The charges would 4.0 paise/kVARh upto 31 st March 2001 and 5% per annum. This would be applicable for reactive power exchanges outside the % voltage band.
