1. Highlights of India Smart Grid Week 2015
A STEP TOWARDS SMARTER CITIES, CLEANER ENERGY
The emergence of India as a strong economic power is receiving widespread recognition in the world.
On the other hand, although we operate the fourth largest power system in the world, one-third of our
population have no access to electricity and our percapita consumption of electricity is one-fourth of
the world average! Transmission and Distribution losses in India are also quite high - about 26% in
distribution and more than 7% in transmission. Government of India (GoI) and other stakeholders have
realized that by implementing incremental improvements in a business as usual scenario we will not be
able to provide 24x7 electricity to all households in the country - it requires innovative strategies,
breakthrough technologies and bold decisions. In 2013, GoI issued Smart Grid Vision and Roadmap for
India; and the present Government in India is committed to provide 24x7 electricity to all households
by 2019 and has recently launched 3 focused programs towards this objective with a total capital
outlay of US$ 14 billion. The Government has also announced ambitious programs to build 100 Smart
Cities on fast track and add 175 GW of renewable energy (100 GW solar and 60 GW wind and 25 Gw
from other sources) generation capacity by 2022! With all these ground breaking initiatives, India has
already emerged as the prime destination for Smart Grids and Smart Cities.
ISGF organized ‘India Smart Grid Week’ (ISGW 2015) from 02 – 06 March, 2015 at Bangalore. ISGW
2015 was a Conference and Exhibition that brought together India’s leading Electricity Utilities, Policy
Makers, Regulators, Investors and world’s top-notch Smart Grid and Smart City Experts and
Researchers who discussed the technology trends, shared best practices and showcased next
generation technologies and products. ISGW 2015 got the support from numerous national and
international agencies such as IEC, CIGRE, IEEE, GSGF, ISGAN, NEDO, CPRI, GERMI, SESI, Ministry of
Power, Ministry of New and Renewable Energy, Ministry of Urban Development and Department of
Telecom.
Special plenary sessions were scheduled as part of ISGW 2015 in which several eminent persons from
around the world participated as visionary speakers. Besides several top minds in the smart grid and
smart cities domains joined as speakers at ISGW 2015. The world’s top-most thought leaders in the
energy sector too shared their views at ISGW 2015 on development needs and future technology
trends that India could leverage to provide clean energy access to over a billion people.
Inaugurated by Mr.Devendra Chaudhry, Special Secretary, Ministry of Power, Govt of India, ISGW 2015
witnessed participation from over 700 persons representing nearly 180 organisations.

4. Key Findings and Recommendations from ISGW 2015
FINDINGS:
In the implementation of major transformation projects with high degree of technology interventions
(R-APDRP and Smart Grid Pilot Projects), India faced several challenges which were discussed at ISGW
2015 and in the light of such challenges and global experiences with similar practises, following
recommendations were made as an outcome of ISGW 2015:
a. Capacity Constraints
The capacity issues were mainly due to simultaneous large scale deployments by many utilities which
seriously depleted the very limited resources of the supply chain in the country. R-APDRP was one of
the largest transformation programs launched in the country that introduced several new technologies
which required trained manpower with specific skills in large numbers. No comprehensive programs
were undertaken by any agency (public or private) to train manpower to undertake these projects
simultaneously and as a result all projects are delayed by few years.
b. Conditions of Contract
The terms and conditions in the General Conditions of Contracts (GCC) that are in use in most utilities is
very old and were framed during 1950s with primary focus on civil and mechanical works. These GCCs
have clauses on “defect liabilities”, “intellectual property rights”, “confidential information”, “limitation
of liabilities” et cetera that are not relevant for contracts involving IT equipment, software and IT
services. Despite frequent cries from several quarters, utilities have not changed these contract
clauses. These draconian clauses precluded all international agencies from participating in the
tendering process of R-APDRP Part-A. All System Integration contracts went to local firms as no MNCs
submitted bids. This should be a key lesson for new programs.
c. Qualifying Requirements
Framing appropriate qualifying requirements is always a difficult issue particularly for Government
owned utilities. Need to devise fool proof systems to qualify only bidders with prior experience and
adequate resources to undertake the projects.
d. Payment Terms
The payment terms in R-APDRP were not supportive of smooth project execution. According to the
Model RFP there will be negative cash flow for 6 quarters (18 months) for the best performing agency if
everything is done on schedule by both the contractor and the purchaser. The intention of tough
payment terms was to avoid contractors drawing major portion of the contract value against supply of
equipment and consequently delay commissioning of the full system. However this has only
discouraged reputed agencies from bidding.

e. Stiff Templates
A standardized template (System Requirements Specification, or SRS) was given as a baseline, but this
was overwhelmingly followed as-is, even when there were reasons to choose (improved) alternatives.
f. Procurement System based on L-1 Bidding:
Utilities in India strictly follow bidding route for all procurements. Smart Grid pilot projects are basically
technology trials and world over the practise is to allot such trials on the basis of proposals received
and evaluated. New technologies cannot be piloted on an L-1 procurement basis. The Smart Cities
projects in Japan, Smart Grid Test Bed in Jeju Island in South Korea, the ARRA Projects in the USA; and
the EC projects in Europe are all undertaken in public-private partnership modes in which utilities,
research labs and technology companies jointly applied for government grants. Based on the project
merits full or part grant was allotted by the Govt and part of the money invested by the industry and
the utility.
India should explore more pragmatic approaches to undertake “smart” technology projects rather than
L-1 bidding route with GCCs of 1950s!
RECCOMENDATIONS:
India’s grid modernisation plan and renewable energy targets are ambitious but achievable. In order to
help guide the process, following seven best practices were recommended based on observing
hundreds of smart grid projects around the world over the last 10 years. Many of these draw heavily on
project lessons from North America, but learnings from Europe and other parts of Asia are also
incorporated.
i. Roadmap and vision: All successful projects need a clearly defined vision for the role that
smart grid technologies will play and a roadmap to deliver on this. Consider end goals,
technology maturity, standards, local capabilities and existing regulatory frameworks when
developing the roadmap. Ensure that current regulatory models align incentives for project
participants, or provide a plan for how these might be changed in order to do so.
ii. Costs and benefits: Take a holistic view on project costs and benefits. Many ancillary benefits
of smart grid programmes can easily be missed out because they do not directly accrue to one
of the parties involved. Conversely, be careful not to overstate the benefits, particularly around
demand side management initiatives. Many early projects in the US, Canada and Europe ended
up revisiting their business case after lower-than-expected demand side benefits.
iii. Stakeholder engagement: Ensure broad based stakeholder engagement throughout the
process and do not underestimate the importance of engaging end-consumers early on. For

example, a total of 15 US states now have smart metering opt-out programmes in place
following consumer push back. Other areas like the Netherlands and Victoria in Australia have
also seen significant pushback, sometimes delaying overall project timelines or future
prospects. Addressing this early can help avoid challenges later on.
iv. Pilot projects: Develop clear success criteria for any pilot projects and a plan for how to move
from pilots to business as usual. This is especially true around emerging technology areas but
applies to others as well. Billions of dollars have been poured into smart grid demonstration
projects globally over the last ten years, but not all have had a clear path to commercial
deployment. Demonstrating stable and sustainable business models is as important as
demonstrating new technologies. Look carefully at what has already been piloted in other
countries in order to maximise the value of demonstration project funding.
v. Standards: Wherever possible, adopt a standards-based approach to ensure future
compatibility and avoid vendor lock-in. Leverage work already completed by groups such as the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC), the Smart Grid Interoperability Panel (SGIP),
US National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), the Institute of Electrical and
Electronics Engineers (IEEE) and others.
vi. Timelines: Set realistic project timelines that incorporate potential delays. Most smart grid
projects experience delays due to a variety of factors. These are more often due to systems
integration and change management challenges than hardware installation. Allow time for
iterative deployments; incrementally rolling out components of a smart grid project can help
keep integration smoother.
vii. Localisation: Not all technologies are well suited for all markets. Tailor the portfolio of
technologies and solutions to best fit local market conditions. For example, countries such as
Brazil have had success with their tamper proof AMI meters specifically targeting non-technical
losses. Microgrids and related applications may turn out to be the ‘killer app’ of the India smart
grid market.
