The deadline for DPRs (Detailed Project Reports) submission is December 31, 2021. Singh said that a DISCOM which is making losses will not be able to access funds under the revamped distribution sector scheme unless it draws up a plan to reduce the losses, lists out the steps it will take to reduce such losses and meet other conditions.Īccording to the minister, action plans and DPRs need to be formulated by the DISCOMs in consultation with the nodal agency/ power ministry.ĭISCOMs will also indicate specific activities and reforms required to improve their performance as part of the Action Plan. The target of the scheme is to bring down the Aggregate Technical and Commercial (AT&C) losses to 12-15 per cent at the all India level as well as to reduce the gap between Average Cost of Supply (ACS) and Average Revenue Realised (ARR) to zero by 2024-25. While calling for a major technological push by DISCOMs, Singh said the scheme envisages extensive use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Information Technology (IT) for system generated energy accounting to enable energy audit and modernisation of distribution infrastructure for loss reduction as well as improvement in reliable power supply.Īmong others, the scheme provides for separation of agricultural feeders and DISCOMs should also take advantage of KUSUM Scheme for separation and solarisation of the agricultural feeders, Singh said. Singh said the revamped distribution sector scheme was the largest of its kind in the power sector and that there are enough funds to meet the requirements of the states/DISCOMs for distribution system strengthening and modernisation.

Under the DeenDayalUpadhyaya Gram Jyoti Yojana and Integrated Power Development Scheme for strengthening the distribution system, 2,798 new substations have been set up, 3,930 substations have been upgraded and 2.5 crore meters had been provided, among others.

With the joint efforts of the Centre and state governments, universal access has been achieved, with 100 per cent electrification of the villages and electrification of 2.82 crore households, the minister said and emphasised that in today’s scenario, all policies and programmes should be consumer centric. Transmission network has been expanded to connect the whole country into one integrated grid with inter-regional transfer capacity of over 1 lakh MW, he noted. With a total installed generation capacity of 384 GW, the country has transformed from a power deficit to a power surplus country. IPDS and DDUGJY Schemes were also reviewed.Īt the meeting, Singh said the power sector has witnessed tremendous growth over the past few years in the areas of generation, transmission and distribution.

During the meeting, reforms being undertaken in the power sector as well as on the guidelines of the new Reforms Based and Results Linked Distribution Sector Scheme were reviewed.
