Under various growth scenarios, the capacity addition required during 12th plan would be in the range of 70,800 - 107,500 MW, based on normative parameters. The 11th Plan Working Group recommends a capacity addition of 82,200 MW for the 12th Plan based on the scenario of 9% GDP growth rate and an elasticity of 0.8%.
Long term demand of power
The Ministry of Power has set a goal - Mission 2012: Power for All. Based on the 17th EPS, the total energy requirement in India will increase to 968,659 GWh by fiscal year 2012, 1,392,066 GWh by fiscal year 2017 and to 1,914,508 GWh by fiscal year 2022. This would lead to an annual electric peak load of 152,746 MW in fiscal year 2012, 218,209 MW in fiscal year 2017 and 298,253 MW in fiscal year 2022. The northern region is expected to contribute 30.1% and the western region contributes 28.4% of the overall annual electric peak load in fiscal year 2022. The Government has estimated the total investment potential of the sector at Rs. 9,000 billion for a specified period up to fiscal year 2011. This represents a significant opportunity for capacity expansion and growth opportunity for power generation companies, both in the public and the private sector
Current outlook of generation capacity addition
In line with the aggressive targets set by the government, a comprehensive Blueprint for Power Sector development has been prepared encompassing an integrated strategy with following objectives
Sufficient power to achieve GDP growth rate of 8%;
Reliability of power
Improved quality of power
Optimum power cost to ensure availability at affordable prices; and Commercial viability of power industry to make it attractive for private sector participation.The Government, through the Ministry of Power, has laid out the following broad strategies to achieve the objectives:
Power Generation Strategy: focusing on low cost generation, optimization of capacity utilization, controlling input costs, optimisation of fuel mix, technology upgrades and utilization of non conventional energy sources;
Transmission Strategy: focusing on developing the National Grid, including interstate connections, Technology upgrades and optimization of transmission cost;
Distribution Strategy: achieving distribution reforms by focusing on system upgrades, loss reduction, theft control, consumer service orientation, quality power supply commercialization, decentralized distributed and supply for rural areas
Regulation Strategy: protecting consumer interests and making the sector commercially viable;
Financing Strategy: to generate resources for required growth of the power sector;
Conservation Strategy: to optimise the utilization of electricity with a focus on demand side management, load management and technology upgrades to provide energy efficient equipment; and Communication Strategy: forming political consensus with the media support to enhance public awareness.
Key risks in the sector
Power sector is a highly capital intensive business with long gestation periods before commencement of revenue streams (construction periods of 4-5 years) and an even longer operating period (over 25 years). Since most of the projects have such a long time frame, there are some inherent risks in both the internal and external environment. We monitor the external environment and manage our internal environment to mitigate the concerns on a continuous basis. Some of the key concerns being faced by the sector currently are.
Coal supply position
More than 50 percent of India’s generation capacity is coal based. According to the Integrated Energy Policy, by FY31-32, India requires 2,040 million tonnes of coal for power generation, more than 5 times its current consumption levels. The shortage of coal is so acute that most of the power generation companies are looking at imported coal as a viable alternative to domestic coal.

Target CAGR 8%
Increasing importance of the private sector
India has emerged as one of the fastest growing economies in the world. Its current economic performance reflects a healthy trend based on increased consumption, investment and exports. Over the next five years, this growth is expected to continue. A key risk to the continued growth of the Indian economy is inadequate infrastructure. Infrastructure investment in India is on the rise, but growth may be constrained without further improvements. The Government of India has identified the power sector as a key sector of focus to promote sustained industrial growth. It has embarked on an aggressive mission –“Power for All by 2012”– and has undertaken multiple reforms to make the power sector more attractive to private sector investment.

Economic outlook
The Indian economy has rapidly emerged from the slowdown caused by the global
financialcrisis of 2007-2009. The advance estimates for the year 2010-2011 indicate a growth
rateof 8.6 per cent against a growth rate of 8.0 per cent in the year 2009-2010.
Agriculturalgrowth was above trend, following a good monsoon. The index of industrial
production(IIP), which grew by 10.4 per cent during the first half of 2010-11,
moderatedsubsequently. However, other indicators, such as the manufacturing PMI, tax
collections,corporate sales and earnings growth, credit off-take by industry and export
performance,indicated strong economic activity. Leading indicators of services sector also
indicatedcontinuing growth momentum. However, inflation was the primary macroeconomic
concernthroughout the year 2010-11 and the Government and the central bank of the
countrycalibrated policies to contain inflation while at the same time trying to balance
growthrequirements. The outlook for global economy suggests that global recovery is
expected tosustain, although growth will slow down marginally and as far as Indian economy
isconcerned, it is expected that high commodity prices coupled with anti-inflationary
policystance would moderate growth for the coming year.
India Power Sector
It is a widely acknowledged fact that one of the major requirements for sustainable
andinclusive economic growth is availability of an extensive and efficient infrastructure. Itis
critical for the effective functioning of the economy and industry. The key to
globalcompetitiveness of the Indian economy lies in building a high class infrastructure.
Toaccelerate the pace of infrastructure development the Government has initiated a host
ofprojects and policies in all crucial sectors. Despite several challenges, the positiveresults of
the Government’s initiatives have started showing up in various sectors ingeneral and power
sector in particular.
The Electricity Reforms which started in the 1990s and took greater shape with theElectricity
Act 2003 have been able to attract private independent power producers and hasaccelerated
the capacity addition program. Nevertheless, reforms have remained incompleteparticularly in
the distribution sector and the future of the Power sector hinges uponurgent improvement of
distribution sector including steps such as revision of tariffs tomore economic levels. Also,
further growth of the power sector is critically dependent onavailability of fuel and this requires
immediate and focused attention of the governmentto put in place a policy framework which
can enable accelerated pace of development offuel sources.
Installed generation capacity
The total installed power generation capacity of India as on March 31, 2011 is 173,626MW out
of which over 18 per cent is contributed by the private sector.

India has added generation capacity of 14,228 MW in FY10-11, a 48% per cent
increasecompared to capacity addition of 9,585 MW in FY09-10. Private sector was the
biggestcontributor with almost 55 per cent of the total capacity added in FY10-11.

India has been traditionally dependent on thermal power as a source of powergeneration,
which constitutes about 65 per cent of current capacity. The balance iscontributed by
hydroelectric power (22 per cent), nuclear (3 per cent), and renewableenergy (10 per cent).

With over half of the capacity added last year coming from coal based projects andcapacity
under construction biased towards coal based projects, India is increasinglyexpected to be
reliant on coal for achieving its target capacity addition plans. As aresult, shortage of coal
remains one of the most critical risks for power generation inIndia.
Generation capacity addition plans
The Government of India had set an ambitious target of adding 78,700 MW in the Eleventh5
Year Plan period (FY07-12). A total of 41,297 MW (53 per cent of target) has been addedin the
first 4 out of 5 years. It is pertinent to note that the capacity addition in theTenth 5 Year Plan
period (FY02-07) was 21.1 GW against a target of 41.1 GW (50 per centachievement).
Although it is highly likely that India will miss the target capacityaddition in the current 5 Year
Plan (FY07-12), the expected capacity addition is asignificant improvement from that of the
last Plan period of FY02-07.
The private sector has played a significant role in the augmentation of generationcapacity in
India in the last 3 years. Private sector’s share of operational capacityhas increased from 12.9
per cent in March 2007 to 21.2 per cent in March 2011.
Power generation
The total power generation in India during FY10-11 was 811.1 billion units (5.2 percent higher
than FY09-10) and was 2.4 per cent lower than the target estimates set forFY10-11.

The private sector accounted for only 14 per cent of the total power generated, but itsshare in
the total pie is expected to increase significantly, since more than half ofcapacity addition in
XIth Plan is expected to be contributed by the private sector. Coalbased capacity contributed
66 per cent of the total power generated although itconstituted only 54 per cent of the
generation capacity. This also highlights theimportance of coal based projects for meeting the

Outlook of power generation sector l Demand and supply outlook
In order to sustain a GDP growth rate of over 8 per cent, it is essential that thepower sector
also grows at a similar rate. The power sector has witnessed acute shortageof electricity over
the last few years. The energy deficit in FY10-11 was 7.5 per cent andthe peak power deficit
was 10.3 per cent indicating a huge gap between demand and supplyof electricity. The gap
between demand and supply has not decreased in the last few years,leading to persistent
power shortages. The following table highlights the deficitsituation in the last few years
Power deficit scenario - all India in the period FY05-11 (in %)
Source: CEA
In recent years, India’s energy demand has been increasing very fast due to thepopulation
growth and economic development. The increase in installed power generationcapacity has
however not kept pace with the increase in demand for power thus leading topower shortages.
Despite the overall increase in energy demand, per capita energyconsumption in India, at 704
kwh, is still very low compared to other developingcountries.
Source: Think BRIC-Comparative study of power sector by KPMG (Jan 2010)
According to the 17th Electric Power Survey, India requires 968.7 billion units ofelectricity in
FY11-12 while the current generation in FY10-11 is 811.1 billion units.This implies that power
generation has to increase by 19.4 per cent in FY 2011-12 just tomeet the demand, almost
double the growth rate of 5.5 per cent witnessed in FY10-11.
• Long term demand and supply outlook
As per the Ministry of Power, to deliver a sustained GDP growth of 8 per cent tillFY31-32,
India’s generation capacity has to grow to 962,210 MW, more than 6 times thecurrent
generation capacity. This implies a CAGR of 8.6 per cent over 22 years and anaverage
capacity addition of over 36,000 MW every year, almost 4 times the capacityaddition rate in
the current 5 Year Plan till date (41,297 MW added in 4 years).
The GDP growth of India in the last few years has been significantly higher than thepower
sector growth thus putting more pressure on the sector. In the period FY02-11,while the GDP
has been growing at an average of over 8 per cent, the power generationcapacity has been
growing at a CAGR of 7.0 per cent (from 132,329 MW in FY07 to 173,626 MWin FY11).
Opportunities and threats
In the last decade, the government has taken various initiatives to increase public aswell as
private investments in the sector to enhance generation capacity and eliminatepower deficit.
The Parliament enacted the Electricity Act, 2003 and the Government hasfollowed up on the
reform agenda with various other policy measures to make the powergeneration sector
attractive for investors. The Electricity Act, 2003, requires theCentral Electricity Authority
(CEA) to lay out the National Electricity Plan once in everyfive years and revise the same from
time to time in accordance with the NationalElectricity Policy. This Plan serves as a roadmap
for accelerated growth of the powersector. Now 100 per cent Foreign Direct Investment (FDI)
is allowed in generation,transmission and distribution segments. Incentives are given to the
sector through waiverof duties on capital equipments under the Mega Power Policy. These
policy initiatives haveresulted in building up investor confidence in the power sector and have
created an idealenvironment for increased participation by the private sector.
In order to attract further private participation in the power sector, the Governmentof India had
announced the Ultra Mega Power Projects (UMPP) scheme under which thegovernment would
partner with the private sector for developing large power projects.
The policy framework for the power sector encourages developers to put power projectsfrom
which they can sell power through long term Power Purchase Agreements (PPA) atattractive
and sustainable returns and also , to sell power through short term contracts(bilateral
contracts) or spot markets (unscheduled interchange, power exchanges) atsignificantly high
premium to the long term tariffs till there is a critical power deficitin India.
Gas based projects account for around 10 per cent of the total generation capacity ofIndia,
which is much lower than the world average. The current gas production in India is165
mmscmd out of which 68 mmscmd is utilized by the power generation sector. The bulk ofthe
additional production has to be absorbed by the fertilizer and power generationsector, the two
biggest consumers of natural gas. This will lead to increased availabilityof gas for power
generation and at reasonable prices. Due to an expected jump in thequantum of supply, gas is
expected to increase its share of the total power generation pieby the next few years.
Considering the ever increasing electricity demand and inadequate availability of fuelthere is a
dire need to tap various new sources of energy including renewable energy.Further, growing
awareness with regard to benefits of clean energy have also promptedrenewed focus on
renewable energy by all the stakeholders in the energy ecosystem.
India has one of the highest potentials for the effective use of renewable energy.India has a
potential of 48,500 MW in wind energy and 25,000 MW in solar energy. Besidesthis, there is
an additional potential of 148,700 MW of hydroelectric capacity, out ofwhich only 25 per cent
has become operational till now. The renewable energy capacity hasgone up from 7,761 MW
in March 31, 2007 to 18,455 MW in March 31, 2011 (growth of over 135per cent in 4 years).
With coal shortage becoming a reality in the last couple of years,it is imperative for India to
have a focused strategy for renewable energy. The Governmenthas already started acting on
this agenda. Some of the significant steps taken recentlyare
• Policy envisaging that all states should mandatorily meet Renewable PurchaseObligations
(RPO) of 5 per cent of total generation which goes up by 1 per cent with everypassing year till
FY2020 to reach a level of 15 per cent.
• Launch of Jawaharlal Nehru National Solar Mission (JNNSM), which aims to ensurethat solar
energy technologies in the country achieve grid parity by 2022. It has plansfor deployment of
20 GW of solar power by 2022.
• Imposition of Carbon cess of Rs. 50 per tonne for all domestic and imported coalbased
projects. The funds raised will be utilized to drive development in the renewableenergy sector.
With increasing focus on environment related issues, power projects, employing cleanand
environment-friendly technology (hydroelectric and other renewable energy sources) canalso
earn carbon credits, which are traded extensively in the international market; thusproviding an
additional source of revenue.
Key risks and concerns
Power sector is a highly capital intensive business with long gestation periods
beforecommencement of revenue streams (construction periods of 4-5 years) and an even
longeroperating period (over 25 years). Since most of the projects have such a long time
frame,there are some inherent risks in both the internal and external environment. We
monitorthe external environment and manage our internal environment to mitigate the
concerns on acontinuous basis. Some of the key concerns being faced by the sector currently
are:
1. Coal supply position
More than 50 per cent of India’s generation capacity is coal based. According tothe Integrated
Energy Policy, by FY31-32, India requires 2,040 million tonnes of coal forpower generation,
more than 5 times its current consumption levels. The shortage of coalis so acute that most of
the power generation companies are looking at imported coal as aviable alternative to
domestic coal.
The total imported non cooking coal quantity has increased more than 3 times within thelast 5
years and is expected to go up at a much faster rate once most of the imported coalbased
projects including the two Ultra Mega Power Projects which are being commissioned inthe
Country. The increase in the prices of imported coal is a matter of serious concernand there is
an urgent need to undertake a review of the mechanism for passing on theincreasing coal
costs to end-consumers.
Realizing this, the Government has recently announced some policy changes andinitiatives in
coal mining. Currently coal blocks are awarded to private sector companiesthrough a
Screening Committee called the Standing Linkage Committee. The Government hasamended
the Mines and Minerals (Development and Regulation) Act, 1957 so that theallocation process
by the Screening Committee is replaced by a transparent auctionprocess. The Government
has also announced draft guidelines for bidding of coal miningblocks. The Government is also
in the process of announcing various policy initiativeswhich would encourage faster
development of coal mines and thus reduce the demand-supplymis-match for coal.
2. Weak financial condition of electricity distribution companies
The financial health of electricity distribution companies (DISCOMs), is fast emergingas an
area of major concern threatening the very viability of the power sector. Theirinability to
generate adequate resources is affecting their ability to make capitalinvestment, borrow funds
at competitive rates and make timely payments of otherstakeholders. Book losses of the
utilities are rising with increasing power purchase costswithout commensurate increase in
tariffs. Further, the Aggregate Technical and Commercial(AT&C) losses of the Utilities are still
at very high levels. The average of theAT&C losses reported by Indian distribution utilities is
almost 30 per cent. AT&Closses in Indian utilities vary from one state to another. The
cumulative losses incurredby the distribution companies is projected to rise to Rs. 116,089
crore by FY 2014-15assuming 2008 tariff level with no increases, according to a Mercados
study for the 13thFinance Commission. Power Finance Corporation has also brought out a
report on thefinancial condition of the various distribution companies. The study shows that 35
out ofthe 39 utilities studied were incurring losses, and net worth of 22 utilities were foundto be
negative.
3. Execution risk
Power projects are highly capital intensive and have a long development andconstruction
phase thus exposing them to various macroeconomic as well as project specificrisks. During
the development phase, a project faces the following key risks:
• Delays in statutory approvals and clearances from the authorities
• Delays in Land acquisition
• Non-availability / delays in obtaining Fuel, water & transmission linkages
• Availability and cost of capital - both equity and debt funding
During the construction stage which covers the period from the commencement ofconstruction
till the commissioning of projects, the key risks that need to be monitoredare:
• Delays leading to time over-runs
• Increase in project costs leading to cost over-runs
• Challenges in transportation/logistics of equipments
• Hydrological & geological risks in case of hydroelectric projects
During the construction phase, ensuring that all the supply and erection contracts areplaced on
time and within the cost estimates is a critical challenge and thereafterensuring that all the
vendors and contractors perform their responsibilities as envisagedis a key risk.
Internal control systems and their adequacy
The Company has put in place internal control systems and processes commensurate withits
size and scale of operations. An Enterprise Resource Planning System developed by SAPhas
been implemented in the Company. The system has control processes designed to takecare of
various control and audit requirements. In addition, the Company has an InternalAudit function,
which oversees the implementation and adherence to various systems andprocesses and
preparation of Financial Statements as per Generally Accepted Principles andPractices.
Further, the internal audit group also appoints reputed audit firms toundertake the exercise of
conduct of Internal Audit at various locations. The report ofthe Internal Auditors is placed at the
Audit Committee Meetings.
Reliance Power has put in place a Risk Management Framework, both at the corporate aswell
as the project level, which provides a process of identifying, assessing, monitoring,reporting
and mitigating various risks at all levels at periodic intervals. Under theframework the
Company has constituted a Risk Management Committee at both the CorporateLevel as well
as Project Level to continuously monitor report and mitigate various risksfaced. The outcome
of this monitoring is reported to the Audit Committee of the Board ofDirectors on a quarterly
basis.
Discussion on Operations of the company
The Company is in the business of setting up and operating power projects and in
thedevelopment of coal mines associated with such projects. The Company has identified
alarge portfolio of power projects of over 35,000 MW and is also developing coal mines witha
potential to develop almost 95 million tonnes of coal per annum (MTPA). Of the powerprojects
which the company is developing 600 MW are already operational while the balancecapacities
are under various stages of development.
Operational projects

The successful commissioning of the second 300 MW unit of Rosa Phase 1 in June
2010marked the commencement of operations of the entire 600 MW of the project. This is
thefirst operational project of the company. However, fuel supply and evacuation
constraintsresulted in a lower Plant Load Factor (PLF) during the first nine months of the
financialyear 2010-11. However, with the resolution of the fuel supply and evacuation
problems theplant has been operating very efficiently and has been consistently operating at
over 100per cent PLF. During the last quarter of the financial year the plant achieved a PLF
ofover 87 per cent.
To ensure continued efficient operations at the plant, the Company has installed worldclass
Operations and Maintenance (O&M) systems. There is a strong O&M team at thesite
supported by an experienced O&M team at the corporate office. A trainingsimulator which is a
replica of unit distributed control system has been set up at Rosafor training operation staff at
regular frequency. Employees are provided in housetraining as well as specialized training by
equipment manufacturer.
The Company has installed a centralized fleet wide optimization and performancemanagement
center for monitoring, optimizing and condition monitoring of assets across thepower stations.

Clean Development Mechanism (CDM)
Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) is one of the three market based mechanisms
agreedunder the Kyoto Protocol to reduce Greenhouse Gases (GHG). CDM encourages
projectdevelopers, in the developing countries, to adopt environmental friendly
technologiesand/or fuels so that the GHG emissions can be reduced. Such reduced GHG
emissions willenable the developers of those projects to generate Certified Emission
Reductions (CERs).Such a move allows developing countries to implement GHG emission
reduction projects in amanner that they assist developed countries to meet their GHG
limitation targets in acost-effective manner.
The Company had applied for the CDM registration of Sasan project in May 2010. InOctober
2010, Sasan project achieved the distinction of the world’s largest powergeneration plant ever
registered under CDM. It also established the unique recognition ofbeing the first Ultra Mega
