1 Energy and Energy Access NORTHEAST INDIA Factsheet 1

2 NORTHEAST INDIA 2 FACTSHEET

3 Electricity The Northeast region of the country has a total installed capacity of 3, mega-watts (MW) for electricity generation. Fossil fuels gas, coal and diesel capacity combined contributes to 57.6 per cent of the installed capacity. According to the Central Electricity Authority, there is currently a gap of 4.7 per cent between the requirement and availability of electricity in the region. In terms of per capita consumption, the average for the Northeast region is around 300 units per person per year, whereas the national average is around 914 units per person per year. This depicts the disparity in the development of the region and the below par extent of access.

5 Electricity Access According to the Census 2011, there are roughly 4.85 million households 53 per cent of the total number that do have access to electricity in the region. The rate of electrification is the worst in Assam, with only 37 per cent of households using electricity for lighting purposes; and best in Mizoram, where 84 per cent of households are using electricity.

6 Renewable Energy WIND POWER Wind power has not been developed in the Northeast of the country at all, even though the region has 300 to 500 MW of potential at even the low hub heights of 50 and 80 metres respectively. Indicative installable potential of wind power at various hub heights At 50 meter height At 80 meter height Mega-watts Arunachal Pradesh Assam Manipur Meghalaya Nagaland Note: Both Mizoram and Tripura do not have any reported potential for wind. Wind potential has yet to be validated with measurements. Source: MNRE Annual Report, NORTHEAST INDIA 6 FACTSHEET

7 SMALL HYDROPOWER (SHP) SHP is the most exploited renewable source of power in the Northeast. In total, SHP accounts for MW of installed capacity, or 98 per cent of the renewable energy, installed in the region. According to MNRE, the region has a potential to install 2.3 giga-watts (GW) of SHP plants in around 1,200 sites with the maximum potential in Arunachal Pradesh.

8 Renewable Energy SOLAR POWER Solar power is the most underutilized source of renewable energy in the Northeast. The region has a combined potential for installation of almost 60 GW of solar power. It currently has installed only 5.27 MW of capacity, primarily in Tripura under the Renewable Energy Certificate Scheme.

10 Arunachal Pradesh Arunachal Pradesh is one of the few states in India whose electricity sector is dominated by renewable energy large and small hydro. Fossil fuels only contribute 22 per cent to the total installed capacity. Although the state claims that there is only a 2.8 per cent deficit in availability of power, there are around 85,000 households that either have no electricity or depend on kerosene for lighting needs, 97 per cent of whom are in rural Arunachal Pradesh.

12 Assam The electricity sector in Assam is dominated by fossil fuels gas and coal together contribute almost two-third of the installed capacity for electricity in the state. Renewable energy, like most states in the region, refers only to SHP plants. Not only has Assam one of the highest deficits in availability of power in the country, it is also one of the poorest in terms of electrification. According to Census 2011, only 37 per cent of the state is electrified.

14 Manipur Being one of the smallest states in the country, the installed capacity for power generation is also small around 206 MW in total. Surprisingly, it is the only state in the region that consumes 36 MW worth of power produced from diesel. In India, most of the consumption of diesel for power generation is in the south and the islands. Renewable energy refers only to SHP plants even though Manipur is also the only state in the region that has a solar policy. The state has performed relatively well in terms of electrification, almost 70 per cent of households have access to electricity.

16 Meghalaya Meghalaya is the only state in the region that draws 70 per cent of its electricity from large hydro (of installed capacity more than 25 MW). It is also the only state that has no deficit or surplus in terms of availability and requirement of electricity, even though the state is only 60 per cent electrified. Renewable energy, like most states in the region, refers only to SHP plants.

22 Tripura Tripura is heavily dependent on natural gas for its electricity generation almost 85 per cent of its installed capacity uses natural gas. It is also the only state in the region that has installed five MW of solar power under the REC scheme. In terms of electrification, it fares in the middle range, with almost 70 per cent of households having access to electricity.
