1 South Asia Investor s Workshop on Cross-Border Electricity Trade South Asia Regional Initiative for Energy Integration(SARI/EI) 24 th -25 th September, 2014 New Delhi, India Dr. Jyoti Parikh Executive Director Integrated Research and Action for Development (IRADe)

2 IRADe, a think tank set up in 2002 About IRADe Conducts multi disciplinary research and policy analysis Multi stakeholders problems and approaches involving government, nongovernmental organizations, corporations, academia and financial institutions. Engages in national and international dialogue for consensus building Key Thematic Areas Urban Infrastructure & Services Climate Change & Environment Energy & Power Systems Poverty Alleviation & Gender Agriculture & Food Security

3 Integrated Research and Action for Development (IRADe) Regional Think Tank that works with Action Tanks! KEY ACTIVITIES Multi-disciplinary and Multi-stakeholders engagement. Research and analysis for decision support Research in action, monitoring and evaluation of projects Trainings and Capacity Building Policy analysis and Dissemination

4 SARI/EI promotes regional integration of Energy Systems. SARI/EI participating countries- Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Bhutan, India, Maldives, Nepal, Pakistan and Sri Lanka. IRADe is the implementing partner for the fourth phase ( ) of SARI/EI program through a cooperative agreement with U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID). Focus is on a demand driven bottom up development paradigm specific for cross-border power project development.

5 SARI/EI Framework Project Steering Committee (PSC) Highly Consultative & Participatory Approach TASK FORCE -1 Coordination of Policy, Legal and Regulatory Framework TASK FORCE-2 Advancement of Transmission Systems Interconnection TASK FORCE-3 South Asia Regional Electricity Markets

6 SARI/EI Framework PSC Project Steering Committee Apex body that provides overall strategic direction and support for SARI/EI program PSC member includes: Senior level officials from respective South Asia country governments Representatives of regional institutions (e.g. SAARC Energy Centre) Representatives of multilateral donors (e.g. ADB and World Bank) Independent Energy Experts/Diplomats TASK FORCE -1 TASK FORCE-2 TASK FORCE-3 Task Forces Includes regional stakeholder representatives (such as national governments, electricity utilities, regulatory commissions, power market institutions, etc) Task force meetings: Follow highly structured, consultative, participative and demand-driven approach Pave way for identifying needs for technical analysis, research and studies

7 Hydro Electric Potential in South Asia (in GW) Afghanistan 25 Bhutan 30 Sri Lanka 2 Bangladesh 0.3 Pakistan 59 India 150 Nepal 83 Total Hydro Electric Potential of around 350 GW

8 Opportunities for CBET in South Asia due to Diversity in Demand & Supply Demand Side Supply Side Peak time differences Difference in time zones (15 to 30 minutes) Difference in daily load curve Difference in weekends and annual festivals Seasonal differences Sufficient to excess hydro capacity during monsoon Need of thermal support during lean period (dry season) Hydro thermal mix Optimal hydro thermal mix- better load balancing during peak and off- peak load

9 Benefits of Cross-Border Electricity Trade Technical and Operational Benefits Energy security due to large trade possibilities Diversified generation mix Reduction in Load Shedding Reduction in spinning reserves Efficient management of peak energy deficit Improved system reliability Economic and Financial Benefits Power availability at competitive price High export income Avoided generation capacity and T&D infrastructure Less exposure to volatile international energy prices Reduction in Current Account Deficit Environmental Benefits Reduction in CO 2 emissions Less Impact on Local and Global environment Renewable Energy Development Improvement in Social Indicators

10 Current Status of Power Sector Cooperation in South Asia S. No. Countries Interconnection Description Capacity (MW) Status 1 Bhutan -India 2 Nepal -India 3 4 Sri Lanka- India Bangladesh- India 5 India-Pakistan Grid reinforcement to evacuate power from Punatsangchhu I & II Dhalkebar-Muzaffarpur 400 kv line 400kV, 127 km HVDC line with submarine cable 400kV HVDC back-to-back asynchronous link 220 kv in the short-term (could be upgraded to 400 kv later) Reinforcement of 2,100 MW 1,000 MW 500 MW in the short-term Under Implementation Under Implementation Planning 500 MW Completed MW Yet to be formally discussed

11 SARI/EI TRACK 2 STUDIES Economic Benefits of CBET to Bhutan and Nepal

12 Methodology Assessment of electricity balance i.e. surplus or deficit situation for Bhutan and Nepal is undertaken for projecting economic benefit from Cross Border Electricity Trade between India and Bhutan, and India and Nepal Electricity Demand Forecast up to 2050 Surplus/ Deficit Forecast IRADe Activity Analysis Model Electricity Generation Forecast up to 2050 In the current work we only consider one way input from Nepal & Bhutan to India through higher importable surplus generation, thus this is still a partial analysis.
