Executive Summary & Key Takeaways

What it means

  • The gazette notification pertains to the Central Electricity Regulatory Commission (Sharing of Inter-State Transmission Charges and Losses) (Third Amendment) Regulations, 2023.
  • These regulations amend the Central Electricity Regulatory Commission (Sharing of Inter-State Transmission Charges and Losses) Regulations, 2020, focusing on the sharing of inter-state transmission charges and losses related to High Voltage Direct Current (HVDC) transmission systems.
  • The amendment addresses scenarios where an inter-regional HVDC transmission system, planned to supply power to a specific region, operates in the reverse direction due to system requirements.

Key Changes

  • Regulation 5(3)(d) of the Principal Regulations is amended to include a proviso stating that if an inter-regional HVDC system operates in reverse direction due to system needs, at least 30% of the yearly transmission charges will be considered as the national component as per Regulation 6(1)(a).
  • Regulation 6(1)(a) is substituted to specify that the Regional Component of HVDC (RC-HVDC) comprises 70% of the Yearly Transmission Charges for HVDC systems supplying power to a region, excluding those covered under Regulation 5(3)(a), (b), and (c).
  • A formula is introduced to calculate the percentage of Yearly Transmission Charges to be considered in the Regional and National components when an inter-regional HVDC system operates in reverse: HVDCr (%) = (MW capacity of power flow in the reverse direction / MW capacity of power flow in the forward direction) X 100.
  • If HVDCr (%) is more than 30%, the corresponding Yearly Transmission Charges are considered in the National component, with the balance in the Regional component.
  • If HVDCr (%) is equal to or less than 30%, 30% of the Yearly Transmission Charges are considered in the National component and 70% in the Regional component.
  • The MW capacity of power flow in the reverse direction must be certified by the National Load Dispatch Center (NLDC) based on actual power flow.

Impact Analysis

Stakeholders

  • Central Electricity Regulatory Commission (CERC): CERC is responsible for enforcing these regulations and resolving any disputes that may arise.

Suggested Action Items

  • Monitor the actual power flow and transmission charges to identify any unforeseen consequences of the amendments.
