## Report on Amendment to Central Electricity Regulatory Commission (CERC) Terms and Conditions of Tariff Regulations, 2019 **1. Executive Summary:** This report analyzes the *Central Electricity Regulatory Commission Terms and Conditions of Tariff First Amendment Regulations, 2020*. This amendment, building on the *Central Electricity Regulatory Commission Terms and Conditions of Tariff Regulations, 2019*, primarily focuses on incorporating provisions related to Emission Control Systems (ECS) in coal and lignite-based thermal generating stations. Key findings include detailed modifications to tariff calculations to accommodate ECS-related expenses, auxiliary energy consumption, and reagent usage. The amendment aims to facilitate the adoption of cleaner energy generation technologies by thermal power plants while ensuring a fair return on investment for generating companies. **2. Introduction:** This report provides an informative overview of the *Central Electricity Regulatory Commission Terms and Conditions of Tariff First Amendment Regulations, 2020* (hereafter referred to as "the Amendment"), based solely on the provided policy text. The report's purpose is to inform affected industry participants about the specific changes introduced by the Amendment and their likely implications. **3. Policy Overview:** * **Original Policy:** Central Electricity Regulatory Commission Terms and Conditions of Tariff Regulations, 2019. * **Core Objective(s):** * Based on the provided text, the core objective of the amendment is to integrate the costs and operational aspects of Emission Control Systems (ECS) into the tariff structure for coal and lignite-based thermal power plants. This includes modifying existing regulations to account for auxiliary energy consumption by ECS, reagent usage, and associated capital and operational expenditures. * Facilitate the adoption of revised emission standards for power plants. **4. Background and Rationale:** The primary reason for this amendment appears to be the need to incentivize and enable the implementation of Emission Control Systems (ECS) in coal and lignite-based thermal power plants. The amendment addresses the issue of how to account for the significant capital investments and operational expenses associated with ECS within the existing tariff framework, specifically in light of the government's emission control standards. By providing clarity on cost recovery mechanisms and tariff adjustments related to ECS, the amendment seeks to encourage thermal power plants to adopt cleaner technologies. **5. Key Provisions / Changes:** The Amendment introduces several key changes to the original policy, focused on integrating ECS into the tariff structure. These include: * **Definition of Auxiliary Energy Consumption for ECS:** A new definition for "Auxiliary energy consumption for emission control system" ('AUX<sub>en</sub>') is introduced, clarifying that this refers to the energy consumed by ECS auxiliary equipment in addition to regular auxiliary energy consumption. * **Definition of Date of Operation (ODe):** Introduces the 'Date of Operation' or 'ODe' for an ECS, defined as the date the system is put into use after meeting all applicable technical and environmental standards, certified by an authorized person (Director level or above) of the generating company. * **Definition of Emission Control System:** ECS is defined as a set of equipment or devices required to be installed in coal or lignite based thermal generating station or unit thereof to meet the revised emission standards. * **Supplementary Tariff for ECS:** Generating companies are required to file an application for a supplementary tariff for ECS installed in their plants within 60 days of the ECS's Date of Operation. * **Supplementary Capacity Charges:** A "Supplementary tariff consisting of supplementary capacity charges" is introduced. These charges are derived from the Annual Fixed Cost for the ECS (AFCe). This includes components like depreciation, interest on loan, operation and maintenance expenses, etc. * **Expenditure servicing:** Any expenditure incurred for ECS during tariff period as may be admitted by the Commission as additional capital expenditure for supplementary tariff determination, shall be serviced in a specified manner. * **Return on Equity:** For ECS-related additional capitalization, the return on equity is computed using the State Bank of India's one-year Marginal Cost of Lending Rate (MCLR) as of April 1st of the year of ECS operation, plus 350 basis points, capped at 14%. * **Depreciation Calculation:** Depreciation for ECS is calculated using the straight-line method with a salvage value of 10%, over different time periods depending on the plant's remaining useful life. * **Norms for Spares and Reagents:** The amendment specifies norms for initial spares for ECS and costs of limestone and reagents. * **Operation and Maintenance Expenses:** O&M expenses for ECS are set at 2% of the admitted capital expenditure (excluding IDC and IEDC) as of the Date of Operation, escalated annually at 3.5% during the tariff period ending March 31, 2024. Income from byproduct sales (e.g., gypsum) is deducted from O&M expenses. * **Energy Charge Adjustments:** Supplementary Energy Charges are introduced to account for auxiliary energy consumption and reagent costs associated with ECS. **6. Target Audience and Stakeholders:** The primary target audience and stakeholders for this Amendment are: * Coal and lignite-based thermal power generating companies. * Electricity distribution companies (Discoms) and other beneficiaries of power generated by these thermal plants. * Central Electricity Regulatory Commission (CERC). **7. Implementation Aspects (Inferred):** * **Responsible Agency/Bodies:** * Central Electricity Regulatory Commission (CERC) is responsible for determining the supplementary tariffs related to ECS. * Generating companies are responsible for filing applications for tariff determination and for implementing ECS according to the specified standards. * **Timelines/Procedures:** * Generating companies must apply for supplementary tariffs within 60 days of the ECS's Date of Operation. * The Amendment outlines specific formulas and procedures for calculating various tariff components, including capacity charges, energy charges, and reagent consumption. * **Monitoring** The related load dispatch center will certify the average declared capacity in exbus MW, for each day of the period. **8. Expected Outcomes / Impact of Changes:** The likely intended outcomes of these specific changes introduced by the amendment are: * **Increased Adoption of ECS:** By providing a clear and structured mechanism for recovering ECS-related costs through tariffs, the amendment aims to encourage thermal power plants to invest in and implement these systems. * **Reduced Emissions:** Widespread adoption of ECS is expected to lead to a reduction in emissions from coal and lignite-based power plants, contributing to improved air quality. * **Transparency and Predictability:** The amendment introduces specific formulas and norms for calculating ECS-related costs, increasing transparency and predictability in tariff determination. * **Financial Viability:** Ensures financial viability of thermal power plants adopting cleaner technologies by enabling them to recover their investments and operational expenses. **9. Conclusion:** The *Central Electricity Regulatory Commission Terms and Conditions of Tariff First Amendment Regulations, 2020* represents a significant step towards integrating environmental considerations into the electricity tariff structure. By providing a framework for cost recovery and tariff adjustments related to Emission Control Systems, this amendment aims to incentivize the adoption of cleaner technologies in coal and lignite-based thermal power plants, contributing to a more sustainable energy sector. The implementation of the amendment will require close coordination between generating companies, regulatory bodies, and beneficiaries of electricity.
