Agriculture Pump-Set Scenario: India

Policy-Politics Cocktail

i. Total agricultural pump sets ~ 18 million

ii. Agriculture sector consumes ~ 19% of total electricity supplied.

iii. Electricity supply is free or applicable tariff is very low, resulting to challenge in availability of electricity supply.

Net Result to @ Inefficient Pump-sets

• Market dominated by un-organised sector providing low cost (< INR 15,000) , low efficiency pump-sets (20-35%);

• Efficient pump-sets are available; though at higher costs (~ INR 30,000), efficiency 40-50%.

Energy Saving Potential

Agricultural pump sets

in the country – 18 million (2011-12)

Total annual consumption in agri-sector –131.96 billion Kwh

(19 % of total electricity consumption)

Saving Potential 33 billion Kwh annually

Energy Saving Potential

new connections per year - (0.5 million)

Average capacity : 5 HP

Average efficiency

old pump sets : 20% - 35%
