6.  Coal annually domestic coal mined > 500 Million tons  Today we import about 10% of our coal requirements. This will grow as we build more coal based plants  Indian coal fields are depleting – 4-5 decades left  Indian coal high ash content and low calorific value  Crude Oil domestic ~ 35 Million Tons  India imports over 75% of needs  Natural Gas domestic ~ 45 Billion cubic meters (~31 MTOE) Harnessing Resources Center for Study of Science Technology and Policy 6

14. Electricity to all by 2012– Mandate of RGGVY Un-electrified as of 2009 Electrification plans for 2009-12 Un-electrified as of March 2012 Villages 118,49978,25640,243 Remote Villages 18,0005,00013,000 Households (Millions) 694128

15.  Current practice  biomass for cooking and kerosene for lighting affects health and is a huge burden on women and children  Challenges –  Provide clean fuel for basic needs of cooking and lighting  Energy should be accessible and affordable to the poor – particularly the rural poor  Geographical challenges of distributing energy Universal Access to Energy Center for Study of Science Technology and Policy 15

16.  Ministry of Power – RGGVY mandate was to provide 1 kWh per day of electricity to every household by 2012 by grid extension  Villages and households that are ‘electrified’ face black outs and brown outs  Remote Village Electrification - decentralized based on renewables  NOT MNRE  NOT JNNSM  Decentralized options are economical today Rural Electrification – who is in charge? Center for Study of Science Technology and Policy 16 1 kWh/day/HH for 69 million households would mean an additional capacity of just 6,500 MW

17.  IEP 2006 recommends goal of providing LPG, NG, biogass or kerosene to all in 10 years  Cooking fuel requirement unlike electricity does not increase indefinitely Providing clean cooking fuel to all Center for Study of Science Technology and Policy 17 Providing LPG to 1.5 Billion People will imply total energy of the order 55 MTOE

18. It is often neither the technology nor the economics It is the institutional mechanisms that often stall large scale dissemination  Subsidy Regime  Appropriate level to stimulate market mechanisms  Aligned to aid sustainable operations  On going operations  Service and Maintenance  Monitoring and Verification  Biomass units – a large percentage after set up are not working – Collection of biomass  On going price of biomass  Solar and other small decentralized generations  Payment and Collection of payment for the generated electricity
