5. INJUSTICE TO TELANGANA IN POWER PROJECTS Projects formulated and not taken up in Telangana Manuguru Thermal( Coal) power station 2000 MW Ramagundam Themal (Coal) station 2000 MW Karimnagar Gas station 1400 MW (2100-700= 1400 ) Shankerpally 1000 MW Total 6400 MW After formation of Telangana state, these projects can be taken up and can be completed in 5 to 6 years 5

6. INJUSTICE TO TELANGANA IN POWER PROJECTS Instead of developing above projects, Andhra officials and Andhra political lobby, developed VTPS in Vijayawada (Narla Tata Rao Themal power station), Rayalaseema Thermal power station in Kadapa and all Gas stations in Coastel area and shelved all projects in Telangana. For VTPS Thermal stations coal is transported from Telangana area and water is drawn from Nagarjuna sagar and power is generated in Andhra area For RTPP thermal station coal is transported from Telangana and water is drawn from Srisailam dam under Telugu ganga scheme and power is generated in Rayalseema area. 6

7. INJUSTICE TO TELANGANA IN POWER PROJECTS Coal is Transported from Telangana for running projects in Seemandhra areas by shelving all thermal projects of Telangana, but gas is not given to Telangana for developing gas power stations in Telangana area. All IPPS( Independent Power Producers ) of Andhra lobby, playing Power Politics by owning all gas stations in their area by denying GAS to Telangana area. This is how Andhra officials and political lobby is causing great injustice to Telangana. 7

8. REASONS FOR INCREASE IN POWER TARIFF One of the main reasons for increase in unit cost of power, to consumers is because of high cost of transportation of coal, from Telangana region to projects located in Andhra region. Concentration of private projects in hands of few people. PPA are written to favour the (IPPS) independent power producers than power user. Heavy amounts are being paid towards fixed and deemed generation charges. 8

9. REASONS FOR INCREASE IN POWER TARIFF Power charges paid to private power producers and APGENCO are APGENCO 1.43/Unit Spectrum 2.58/ Unit GVK 2.94/ Unit BSES 5.47/ Unit LANCO 7.94/Unit Cost of generation for any power generation can be from Rs 1.25 to 2.50 per unit. This type of robbery is one of the main cause for increase in energy charges for consumers 9

10. Other reasons for recent high cost of power is because, power generation at Srisailam is reduced to 300 to 400MW against possiibility of 1600MW. This in turn reduced the power generation at Nagarjuna sagar from 800 MW to 100 to 200 MW. Power is generated during peak hours only. The annual energy generation is reduced to 25 to MU against 200 MU at Srisailam and to 15MU against 150MU. This is done just to take maximum water through Pothireddypad head regulator to Rayalaseema and power is purchased by spending very high cost. After formation of Telangana it is essential that all PPA are to be revised, and maximum power can be generated from Srisailam and Nagarjuna sagar power stations, to protect the interest of Telangana people. 10

11. REASONS FOR INCREASE IN POWER TARIFF In Telangana maximum 40 % power is from hydel power stations. Most of the projects are of Govt., and semi Govt and share from Central power gen. stations, whose fixed charges and O&M charges are less. In Telangana private sector power component will be small (Almost nil) and After formation of Telangana, power charges in Telangana can be reduced or at least will not be increased. 11

With this an additional power of 6400 MW can added to Telangana power grid in 5 to 6 years period to meet additional load because of proposed Lift schemes and further development activities. 18

19. POWER DEMAND IN TELAGNANA In all Telangana districts, except parts of Nalgonda and Karimnagar, maximum irrigation is by mainly by deep bore wells except few open wells. Rating ( H.P) of pump sets is generally very high, because of very deep water table. In Seemandhra areas irrigation is by gravity canals, except one or two districts like srikakulam, Vijaya nagaram and part of Anananthapur. Hence in Telangana, agriculture power demand is higher than in Seemandhra area. 19

20. ENERGY DEMAND IN TELAGNANA In Telangana most of the power connections are on record only. Most of the service connections of open wells are defunct, because of drying of wells, as water table in the area gone to, too deep. These connections are still on record and shows more connected load( (Maximum load). In reality there are less no. of connections in service, then shown in records. Andhra official lobby never made any efforts to analyise this and delete defunct services from record, just to show that maximum amount is spent for subsidy in farmers in Telangana. 20

21. ENERGY DEMAND IN TELAGNANA In addition pump sets running period in most of the Telangana districts is only 3 to 4 hours for day because of less quantity of water in bore wells. Which means connected load is more and energy consumption is less. As the subsidy shown is on connected load only and shown as high but real subsidy is very less in Telangana In Seemandhra area the rating of motors rating is less because water table is at higher level and running period can be 24 hours. Which means connected load is less and energy consumption is more. As the subsidy shown is on connected load only and shown as low but real subsidy is very high in Seemandhra area. 21

22. POWER REQUREMENT OF LIFT IRRIGATION SCHEMEES 1). REQUIREMENT OF POWER ( MW Load) Many people of Telangana are of the opinion that sufficient power will not be available in Telangana and power requirement of LI schemes, formulated at present and to be formulated in future will be very high. This is totally wrong because, a) As the pumps of Present Li schemes will be run during off peak period / during monsoon and fill the balancing reservoirs and major local irrigation tanks of the area. b) During this this period there will be sufficient hydro power generation, as water levels in the rivers and reservoirs will be full for power generation. 22

23. POWER REQUREMENT OF LIFT IRRIGATION SCHEMEES c) The agriculture demand on the power grid will be very low. d) These LI schemes pumps are of high efficiency ( about 89%) and run with high power factor, with good discharge and fill the balancing reservoirs, and major local irrigation tanks of the area, from where water flows by gravity canals to meet the requirement of ayacut in the area. Hence all the agriculture pump sets, which are being presently used for the ayacut with very low efficiency ( 75% Only) and also with low Power factor gets closed as water flows to these areas by gravity. Thus there will be net saving of 14% power in the present requirement of power. 23

24. POWER REQUREMENT OF LIFT IRRIGATION SCHEMEES The rating ( H.P) of pump sets of ayacut where water will not reach by gravity flow, gets reduced, as water table in the area comes up, due to percolation. In view of the above, total power demand of the area (district) will comes down or at least remain almost same as before installation of the pumps. The same is being observed in Nalgonda district after commissioning of AMRP (SLBC) pumps. How ever if there is any slight increase in demand, that will be due to development of additional ayacut, in view of availability of additional water in the wells of the area due to perculation. 24

25. POWER REQUREMENT OF LIFT IRRIGATION SCHEMEES 2). CURRENT CONSUMPTION CHARGES (CC Charges or Energy ( KWH ) Charges) For meeting of C.C charges any one of the following system can be adopted. Alternative-1: Govt. is giving free power, for Agriculture pump sets, The power must be made free for these pumping stations also, as the purpose of these pumping stations is also same as that Agriculture pump sets 25

26. POWER REQUREMENT OF LIFT IRRIGATION SCHEMEES Alternative - 2: If Free power is not possible and C.C charges are to be paid to Power company then, The charges to be collected from the farmers of ayacut area, under lift irrigation projects shall be same as that of charges being collected from the farmers of ayacut, under big dams and reservoirs. 26

27. POWER REQUREMENT OF LIFT IRRIGATION SCHEMEES Comparision of Energy and energy charges are made in case of a former with a pump set for his bore well of 300Ft and AMR project LI Scheme which is already in service, where water is lifted (pumped ) to an height of 100m( about 300 ft.), by installing 4 Nos.18000KW motors ( pump –motor set) with 600 Cusecs.( 17 Cumecs.) discharge per each pumps. 27

28. POWER REQUREMENT OF LIFT IRRIGATION SCHEMEES Energy required for irrigating one acre land by a farmer with individual pump set =882.54 Units Energy required for irrigating one acre of land by AMRP LI scheme = 36819144 /46656= 789.157 units Hence energy saving for irrigating one acre land by LI Scheme = 93.383 units (882.54 – 789.157 = 93.383). Energy saving for irrigating 2.50 lakh acres in AMR LI Scheme = 233.46 lakh units (93.38x2.50 lakhs=233.46 lakh units) or 23.346 MU i.e There will be a saving of 23.46 MU for irrigating 2.50 l lakh acres of land through LI schemes of present days. 28

29. POWER REQUREMENT OF LIFT IRRIGATION SCHEMEES It is observed that C.C charges to be incurred by a farmer for irrigating one acre land (per one crop) by pump set will be Rs. Rs. 2338.00 per acre In case of AMR project LI scheme cost of irrigation per acre of land works out to Rs. = Rs. 2091.00 per acre Hence there will be saving of about Rs.247.00 per acre In case of AMR Lift Irrigation Scheme, the total ayacut is about 2.50 lakh acres. Hence, the saving will be about = 247.45 x 2,50,000 =Rs.618.62 lakhs in a year or say Rs.6.186 crores per year (for one crop). i.e There will be a saving of 6.186 crores for irrigating 2.50 lakh acres of land through LI schemes of present days. Hence lift irrigation schemes of present days are beneficial to State/Nation in terms of energy and also in terms of cost. 29
