Dangerous reliance on coal power – huge implications • Integrated energy policy has projected Dangerous reliance on coal power – huge implications • Integrated energy policy has projected a total generating capacity of about 800, 000 MW by 2031 -32, out of which 400, 000 MW may have to be coal based. • Minister of State for Coal: "There are no two opinions about the need to switch over to other modes of power generation ……. Coal-based power production has to be restricted". • Future need for huge quantity of coal import; energy security • At present Approximately 75 coal-based thermal power stations generating about 66, 000 MW • 97% power coal supply responsibility is catered to by Coal India Limited (CIL). • Large requirement of land water; large no. of additional mines

Dangerous reliance on coal power – huge implications • Large number of merchant power Dangerous reliance on coal power – huge implications • Large number of merchant power plants • About 140, 000 MW of coal power plants approved Ø Vidarbha >> 30, 000 MW Ø Konkan >> 40, 000 MW Ø AP coast >> 70 Power plants • Coastal areas are targeted for ease of import and sea water • More coal fields are being opened • More of forests are getting destroyed • More of tribals being displaced • Global warming and Climate Change : What is India’s commitment ?

Implications on Global warming ? “Emissions have been, and continue to be driven, by Implications on Global warming ? “Emissions have been, and continue to be driven, by economic growth; yet stabilization of greenhouse-gas concentrations in the atmosphere is feasible and consistent with continued growth. ” “Emissions from deforestation are very significant – they are estimated to represent more than 18% of global emissions” “Curbing deforestation is a highly cost-effective way of reducing greenhouse gas emissions. ” What our society is doing at present is to supply inefficiently derived energy from limited conventional sources at subsidized rates for highly inefficient and / wasteful end uses, for which the real subsidy cost will be passed on to future generations.

Extent of Inefficiency “India’s power sector is a leaking bucket; the holes deliberately crafted Extent of Inefficiency “India’s power sector is a leaking bucket; the holes deliberately crafted and the leaks carefully collected as economic rents by various stake holders that control the system. The logical thing to do would be to fix the bucket rather than to persistently emphasise shortages of power and forever make exaggerated estimates of future demand for power. Most initiatives in the power sector (IPPs and mega power projects) are nothing but ways of pouring more water into the bucket so that consistency and quantity of leaks are assured …. ” Deepak S Parekh, Chairman, Infrastructure Development Finance Corporation, September 2004. As per 13 th Finance Commission, national level financial loss of ESCOMs could be > Rs. 69, 000 Crores in 2010 -11 and > Rs. 116, 000 Crores in 2014 -15

Power saga in India Between 1989 & 2009 Installed generating capacity increased from 58, Power saga in India Between 1989 & 2009 Installed generating capacity increased from 58, 012 MW to 1, 52, 148 MW ( + 162%) Between 2000 & 2008 Monthly generation from conventional sources increased from 43, 596 MU to 65, 057 MU (+50%) Between 1992 & 2006 National per capita electricity consumption increased from 283 k. WH to 429 k. WH ( +52%) per capita consumption in Karnataka = 720 Units (in 2009) per capita consumption in Bangalore = 2, 674 Units (in 2009) per capita consumption in villages << 200 Units But 44% of the households have no access to electricity even in 2009. Many villages remain unelectrified; huge power cuts throughout the year; poor quality of supply; gross inefficiency; vulgar levels of inequity continues. Multiple crises continue !!!

With this background • Do we need many more large power projects? • Must With this background • Do we need many more large power projects? • Must they be fossil fuel or large dam based? • Since fossil fuel & dam based power projects contribute heavily to the global warming effect what suitable alternatives are available to us ? • Since the policies since independence have largely failed to meet our requirements, is there a need for a paradigm shift?
