thermal power development - Infraline

Central electricity authority Annual Report 2009-10
for 9 th , 10 th and 11 th Plans with 117 schemes
having an aggregate installed capacity of
19370 MW with benefit of 7755MW at an
estimated cost of Rs.4654 crores.
5.11.1 8 th , 9 th & 10 th Plan Achievements
Under the hydro R&M programme,
65 (15 in Central Sector and 50 in State
Sector) hydro-electric schemes (13 upto the
8 th Plan, 20 in the 9 th Plan and 32 in the 10 th
Plan) with an installed capacity of 10511
MW at a cost of Rs.1,726 Crores have been
completed by the end of the 10 th Plan (i.e. by
31.03.2007) and have accrued a benefit of
2351 MW through Life Extension, Uprating
and Restoration.
5.11.2 11 th & 12 th Plan Programme
At the beginning of 11 th Plan i.e. May/
June, 2007, a total of 62 hydro R&M schemes
were programmed with an installed capacity
of about 11340 MW at an estimated cost of
Rs. 4035 Crs. to accrue a benefit of about
4393 MW through life extension, uprating
and restoration. The programme was finalized
in consultation with SEBs/Utilities.
During Dec., 2007, Two (2) hydro
R&M schemes of Rajasthan having Inter-
State issues were dropped due to disagreement
between Rajasthan and Madhya Pradesh.
Further, three (3) schemes of APGENCO
namely Hampi, Machkund and Tungbhadra;
One scheme of TNEB namely Sholayar-I and
one scheme of KPCL namely Bhadra were
shifted to 12 th Plan on the request of Project
Authorities as the generating units were
running satisfactorily. Also, one scheme
of BBMB namely Dehar was split into two
schemes Dehar Ph. A and Dehar Ph.B. Thus,
presently 56 hydro R&M schemes having
an installed capacity of about 10810 MW
at a revised/updated estimated cost of
Rs. 4203 Crores programmed to accrue
a benefit of about 4099 MW through life
extension, uprating and restoration are under
implementation.
Annual review meetings were held
with various utilities in CEA during March/
April,2010. As per the outcome of discussions,
one scheme namely Bhadra HEP of KPCL has
been declared as completed. Now 29 schemes
are planned for implementation during the
11 th Plan.
Till date (as on 31.03.2010), 13
Schemes (out of 29 targeted schemes) with
an installed capacity of 3204 MW at a cost
of about Rs. 205 Crores have been completed
and have accrued a benefit of 380 MW through
life extension & uprating. The R&M works
on balance 16 ongoing schemes (installed
capacity 4684 MW) are under various stages
of implementation i.e. Ongoing, Tendering,
DPR preparation, finalization and RLA
Studies etc.
Further, 26 more hydro schemes
planned for implementation in 11 th Plan have
now been shifted to 12 th Plan (envisaging
8 R&M schemes), as RLA studies of these
schemes could not be completed or units are
running comparatively satisfactorily. Also, a
new R&M scheme of Rengali HPS has been
proposed by OHPC for completion in 12 th
Plan. Thus, a total of 35 schemes are now
envisaged for completion during 12 th Plan.
After completion of the R&M works of these
projects, having total installed capacity of
3183 MW, there will be a benefit of 2795
MW through Life Extension & Uprating
at an estimated cost of Rs. 3075 Crores
(provisional).
