Chapter 1 : Introduction
1.1 Preamble
This chapter provides a background accompanying with the SLDC functions and determination
of SLDC charges & fees consequent upon filing this petition.
1.2.2 The Electricity Act, 2003 provides that the State Government shall have to established a
State Load Despatch Centre (SLDC). Subsection (2) of the Section 31 provides that the said
SLDC shall be operated by a Government company/authority/corporation constituted by or
under any State Act and that until such company/authority/corporation is notified by the
State Government, the State Transmission Utility (STU) shall operate SLDC. The
Government of Gujarat has then notified SLDC vide reference GHU-2004-31-GEB-1104-
2946-K dated the 29th May, 2004 under Section 31 of the Electricity Act, 2003 ( 36 of 2003)
that the Load Dispatch Centre (LDC) situated in Jambuva , Dist. Vadodara as the State Load
Dispatch Centre, which shall be operated by Gujarat Energy Transmission Corporation Ltd.,
Vadodara for the purpose of exercising the powers and discharging the functions under the
said Act w. e. f. 1st June, 2004 for discharging SLDC functions of electricity in the Gujarat
State. Subsequently , SLDC is shifted to Gotri from Jambuva w.e.f. 6 th July’2005.
Accordingly, Gujarat Energy Transmission Corporation Ltd. is presently operating SLDC
business in the State.
1.2.3 SLDC-Gujarat has participated into Unified Load Dispatch and Communication Scheme
(herein after called as “ULD&C) scheme approved by Central Electricity Authority (CEA) for
western region. Under this scheme, SLDC Jambuva has been shifted to SLDC Gotri from 6th
July’2005 and commenced operation of three Sub-SLDCs at Gandhinagar, Jambuva and
Jetpur. All those Sub-SLDCs are equipped with sufficient manpower and operated under
direct control of SLDC-Gotri.
1.2.4 Section 32(3) of the Electricity Act, 2003 provides for levy and collection of such fees and
charges from the generating companies and licensees engaged in the intra-state
transmission of electricity as may be specified by the State Commission. Subsequently after
issuance of Indian Electricity Act’2003, Central Government through its Order 795(E) dated
8th June 2005 has notified “The Electricity (Removal of Difficulty) Sixth Order, 2005”
wherein, it has clarified that SLDC fees and charges may be levied form licensees using intra
State transmission system as specified state commission. It is therefore, appropriate to
recover the SLDC fees and charges as specified by Hon’ble commission vide “Levy and
collection of fees and charges regulation 2005”
1.2.5 In exercise of the powers conferred under Section 181 of the Electricity Act, 2003 (Act 36 of
2003), and all powers enabling it in that behalf, the Gujarat Electricity Regulatory
Commission has issued a regulation for determination of SLDC fees and charges called “Levy
And Collection of Fees and Charges by SLDC Regulations, 2005” on dated 30 th March’2005.
Accordingly, SLDC-Gujarat has to submit a petition before GERC with the details of
estimated expenditure after separation of accounts. Since the commercial operation of
ULD&C scheme was not started and expenditure under ULD&C scheme under State portion
was to be validate, the separation of accounts and assets was to remain with GETCO’s
account up to 31st March’2009. Hence, SLDC fees and charges component was factored
within the transmission tariff. As such, all long term open access users within State are
using only GETCO network who are also availing SLDC services, recovery of SLDC charges
and fees through the transmission tariff is acceptable as there is no commercial implication
on long term open access users, because intra state entities availing SLDC services and
GETCO services are same. Therefore tariff proposal of GETCO covers annual revenue
requirement of SLDC for the period of 2006-07 to 2008-09.
1.2.6 Under regulation issued by Hon’ble commission (Regulation 5 of 2005), SLDC-Gujarat has to
file application for approval of aggregate revenue requirement and determination of fees
and charges as per regulation issued by GERC called as “Levy and Collection of Fees and
Charges by SLDC Regulations, 2005”.
1.3.2 In pursuant with the clause 4 of “levy and collection of fees and charges by State load
dispatch centre Regulation 2005” dated March 30, 2005, SLDC-Gujarat has to file an
application / petition with the Commission for annual revenue requirement and for the
determination of the SLDC fees and Charges together with the details of estimated
expenses for the ensuing year.
1.3.3 Further, in pursuant with the clause 4(vi) & 4(viii) of Regulation on levy and collection of
fees and charges by SLDC Regulation 2005, SLDC-Gujarat has to submit proposal for capital
expenditure for approval and prudence checks by commission. SLDC-Gujarat has to further
submit capital investment program for ensuing financial year with the detail of estimates.
Clause 4(vi) and 4(viii) of above said regulation are reproduced as under :
“4(vi) Any proposal for capital expenditure shall be submitted to the Commission. The
Commission will duly approve the proposal after examining the need and applying prudence
checks.
4(viii) The details of capital investment programme for the ensuing financial year shall be
furnished along with the details of estimated expenses.”
1.3.4 In compliance with the GERC Regulations and Guidelines, GETCO, the State Transmission
Utility & Transmission licensee, managing the SLDC business as per order of Government of
Gujarat, herein submits the Petition for determination of annual SLDC fees and charges for
control period along with proposed capital investment program. The capital expenditure
plan is revised for FY 2011-12 and considered for the purpose of determination of ARR of
SLDC for FY 2011-12.

CAPEX plan are reproduced as under:

4.5.2 The generating capacity of Torrent power is considered for the purpose of Computing SLDC
charges because of separate capacity connected with State grid. Though Torrent generating
station is considered as part of Torrent Power Ltd., the capacity addition is to be considered
as integral part of Gujarat grid for all purpose of operational treatment. Hence, such
capacity is to be considered while calculation of aggregate revenue requirement of Gujarat
grid under provision of Indian Electricity Act’2003.
4.5.3 As per Section 6.4 (Demarcation of Responsibilities) sub section 2(C)(IV), of the Indian
Electricity Grid Code 2010 and CERC order dated 28th July’10 of Petition No. 220/2009,
Control area of Adani Power Plant (4640MW) has been transferred Gujarat from 2 nd August,
2010.
4.5.4 Mega Power Plant, Sugen (1147.50 MW) is supplying power to intra state entities (except
100 MW to MPPTCL is under consideration). Hence as per CERC order dated 7th May’2009
and revised Indian Electricity Grid Code issued by CERC for determination of control area ,
entire capacity of Sugen Power Plant is considered within jurisdiction of SLDC-Gujarat.

4.6.2 The long term open access users other than distribution licensee, that have executed
agreement with supplier for which long term open access granted by STU, The capacity for
which agreement executed is to be considered for the purpose of recovery of SLDC fees and
charges.
4.6.3 The distribution licensee of TPL-Ahemedabad & TPL-Surat is availing power from Torrent
generating plant (500 MW) and Sugen Plant (1147.50 MW). The companies are
amalgamated as per order of Gujarat High court. However, for the operational and
functional purpose from grid users point of view, generation capacity of generating plant is
allocated to TPSECL & TPAECL ( in the ratio of 50:50) within their organization. The capacity
allocated TPSECL shall have to consider for the purpose of recovery of SLDC Charges and
fees whereas capacity allocated to TPAECL is supplied by TPL-Sugen under short term open
access. The unallocated/allocated capacity of TPL-Sugen which is supplied under short term
open access is excluded from the allocated capacity.
4.6.4 GUVNL has executed power purchase agreement with Adani (1000 MW each through
separate bid with aggregate contract capacity of 2000 MW) from Mundra power plant of
M/s. Adani Power Ltd. Three units of this plant have commenced operations and started
supplying power to the beneficiaries commercially.
4.6.5 The addition of capacity from Sikka plant (500 MW) owned by GSECL and extension of
GSEG(H) plant having capacity of 350 MW has been added in the year 2010-11 and
therefore, the total capacity of 850 MW (350+500) is indicated against GUVNL for the
purpose of computation of SLDC fees and charges.
4.6.6 It was anticipated that Dadra Nagar Haveli (DNH) and Diu-Daman (DD) would be
discontinued after commencement of direct connectivity with CTU network. However, it
has been observed that DD and DNH is using intra state transmission network as
“intervening transmission facility” for the part of share allocation from ISGS. Separate
quantification is not available which provides quantum for which intra state transmission
system is used. Therefore, SLDC Gujarat has assessed the quantum as aggregate drawl by
DD & DNH from GETCO network. Is is calculated as 70 MW for DD and 155 MW for DNH and
same will be applicable for the FY 2010-11 & 2011-12.

Exchange Rate Variation (if applicable), any statutory taxes, levies, duties, cess, filing fees or
any other kind of imposition(s) and/ or other surcharges etc. whatsoever imposed/ charged
by any Government (Central/State) and / or any other local bodies/ authorities/regulatory
authorities in relation to SLDC functions, environmental protection and the same shall be
borne and additionally paid by the beneficiaries to the petitioner and the same shall be
charged in the monthly bills raised by the petitioner on the beneficiaries. The petitioners
shall also claim the filing fee in the same manner.
5.2.3 The Aggregate Revenue Requirement herein above is inclusive of operation & maintenance
expenses, employee expenses, administration & general expenses, interest on loan, ULD&C
and other related expenses, WAM charges, RLDC/WRPC charges, depreciation, interest on
working capital and return on equity. The O&M expenses for control period 2011-12 to
2015-16 are calculated by taking base of estimated O&M expenses for the current year
2010-11.
5.2.4 The expenditure of ULD&C and other related scheme like back-up communication to
ULD&C, maintenance cost of wide band Communication and cost associated with shifting of
SLDC from Bhilai to Raipur is added separately into O&M expenses. The charges of ULD&C
scheme is calculated based on the approval of charges for Unified Load Despatch &
Communication Scheme in Western Region for the period from 1.2.2006, given by CERC on
7th November’08 against petition filed by Power Grid Corporation Ltd. The cost of other
related projects are included as approved in the Western Region Power Committee after
taking consent of WR constituents including Gujarat. The assets of all above projects are
owned by Power Grid Corporation of India Ltd. and GETCO is sharing the cost of above.
Therefore, it is appropriate to include it as separate expenses.
5.2.5 The ARR has been calculated after deducting the other Income i.e. income earned from
sources accompanying with functions specified under Section 32 of Electricity Act’2003.
SLDC-Gujarat has generated other income from application charges under Short term open
access, scheduling charges, disposal of obsolete inventories, interest from staff loan etc.
5.2.6 Surplus fund created due to accumulation of reactive charges at the end of year shall have
to be utilized by SLDC-Gujarat for the training purpose of system operator and system
improvement study as per order No.3 of 2006 issued by Hon’ble commission. The relevant
clause are reproduced as under :
“16( m). The money remaining in the State reactive account after payout of all VAr charges
up to 31st March of every year shall be utilized for training of the SLDC/ALDC operators, and
other similar purposes which would help in improving / streamlining the operation in the
State grids, as may be decided by the Committee from time to time.”
5.2.7 The training activities/study to be undertaken for utilization of surplus fund in pursuant of
the above said provision of order issued by Hon’ble commission is specific. The objective of
such training activities/study will be focused for the improvement of voltage profile and
related training for system study, study of reactive power flow and load flow etc. It aims to
reduce the exchanges of reactive energy and improvement in voltage condition,
improvement in system etc. Such activities/study to be organized by SLDC in consultation
with stakeholders. This activities/study will be over and above pre planned training by SLDC
reflected in annual budget. Hence, it is appropriate to exclude the above fund while
calculating the Annual Revenue Requirement of SLDC. It is, therefore, excluded while
estimating net revenue requirement during control period.

2) In line with Implementation of Intra state ABT, SLDC carried out all the
activities related to intrastate ABT like scheduling, preparation of UI Bill,
State Energy account, Reactive energy account etc
5.5.1 Further, Government of Gujarat vide their “Power Policy 2009” (Clause no.1.3) supported
for implementation of Intra State Availability Based Tariff (ABT)” and “ Open Access in
Transmission and Distribution network in the Gujarat for greater competition in the
electricity market. Relevant provision of ‘Power Policy 2009” is reproduced as under :
“1.3 The capacity addition to meet the growing energy requirement is expected to be
both in public sector as well as private sector. The Government of Gujarat has been
providing an enabling for private investment in power generation. At present the share of
private sector in total installed generation capacity is 25%. Also, the State Government
supports greater competition in the sector through open access, Intra State ABT etc. At the
same time , it is important to ensure competitiveness of the power sector in the State, by
adoption of latest technologies and practices”
c) Issuing concurrence for Inter State bilateral transaction through inter State open
access.
5.6.2 State Load Dispatch Centre has granted short term open access within intra State level in

5.8.2 The long term open access users other than distribution licensee, that have executed
agreement with supplier for which long term open access granted by STU, The capacity for
which agreement executed is to be considered for the purpose of recovery of SLDC fees and
charges.
5.8.3 The distribution licensee of TPL-Ahemedabad & TPL-Surat is availing power from Torrent
generating plant (500 MW) and Sugen Plant (1147.50 MW). The companies are
amalgamated as per order of Gujarat High court. However, for the operational and
functional purpose from grid users point of view, generation capacity of generating plant is
allocated to TPSECL & TPAECL ( in the ratio of 50:50) within their organization. The capacity
allocated TPSECL shall have to consider for the purpose of recovery of SLDC Charges and
fees whereas capacity allocated to TPAECL is supplied by TPL-Sugen under short term open
access. The unallocated/allocated capacity of TPL-Sugen which is supplied under short term
open access is excluded from the allocated capacity.
5.8.4 GUVNL has executed power purchase agreement with Adani (1000 MW each through
separate bid with aggregate contract capacity of 2000 MW) from Mundra power plant of
M/s. Adani Power Ltd. Three units of this plant have commenced operations and started
supplying power to the beneficiaries commercially.
5.8.5 The addition of capacity from Sikka plant (500 MW) owned by GSECL and extension of
GSEG(H) plant having capacity of 350 MW has been added in the year 2010-11 and
therefore, the total capacity of 850 MW (350+500) is indicated against GUVNL for the
purpose of computation of SLDC fees and charges.
5.8.6 It was anticipated that Dadra Nagar Haveli (DNH) and Diu-Daman (DD) would be
discontinued after commencement of direct connectivity with CTU network. However, it
has been observed that DD and DNH is using intra state transmission network as
“intervening transmission facility” for the part of share allocation from ISGS. Separate
quantification is not available which provides quantum for which intra state transmission
system is used. Therefore, SLDC Gujarat has assessed the quantum as aggregate drawl by
DD & DNH from GETCO network. Is is calculated as 70 MW for DD and 155 MW for DNH and
same will be applicable for the FY 2010-11 & 2011-12.
fees and charges from the generating companies and licensees engaged in the intra-state
transmission.
5.9.2 It is therefore necessary to charge SLDC fees and charges to all grid users, availing the
benefit of grid/SLDC services through long term open access methods or any other existing
methods like wheeling. Therefore, annual revenue requirement of SLDC shall be recovered
from the existing grid users or new grid users through the proposed method of recovery of
charges and fees against the SLDC functions stipulated under Electricity Act 2003.
5.9.3 All long term open access users are availing grid services for transferring power to
consumer point from various sources on firm contract basis by establishing transmission
network or through the STU. The quantum of MW transferred by such long term open
access users depends on the quantum of long term open access granted or to the extent of
allocation ( part of open access quantum utilized by such users ). Similarly generating
companies are availing grid services to the extent of their generation capacity committed
for generating power under long term contracts. Hence, intra state entities i.e. generating
companies and beneficiaries( distribution licensee/LTOA users ) has to pay SLDC charges
and fees in proportion to their generating capacity and quantum of MW allocated to
beneficiaries respectively.
5.9.4 According to regulation issued by GERC (Clause 4(xvi) & (xvii) of Regulation No. 5 of 2005),
scheduling and system operation charges to be recovered from short term open access
users shall not be considered for the determination of the charges of the SLDC, and to be
specified by commission separately. Therefore, short term open access charges are not
covered in the said application for determination of SLDC charges & fees. The relevant
clause of above said regulation is reproduced as below :
“4(Xvii) Short-term open access users of the Grid shall pay such scheduling and system
operation Charges as may be specified by the Commission.
4(xviii) Scheduling and system operation Charges recovered from short-term open access
users of the Grid shall not be considered in the determination of the Charges of the SLDC.”
5.9.5 Central Government through its Order 795(E) dated 8th June 2005 has notified “The
Electricity (Removal of Difficulty) Sixth Order, 2005” wherein, it has clarified that SLDC fees
and charges may be levied from licensee using intra-State transmission system as stated
under Section 32(3) of EA 2003. The relevant extract of said Order is as under –
“The State Load Dispatch Centre may levy and collect such fee and charges
from licenses using the intra-State transmission system, as may be specified by
the State Commission.” (Cl. 2 of The Electricity (Removal of Difficulty) Sixth
Order, 2005)
It is, therefore, appropriate to recover SLDC charges and fees from generating companies
and distribution licensee engaged in intra state transmission system as specified by the
Gujarat Electricity Regulatory Commission.
5.9.6 As mentioned in para 5.3 – ‘Principle of recovery of SLDC charges and fees”, it comprises
following component to be recovered from generating station and distribution licensee i.e.
(i) SLDC Charges (Monthly basis), (ii) SLDC fees (Semi annual basis) and (iii) Grid Connection
fees. Since the commission has not specified method of recovery of SLDC charges and fees,
it is proposed as per para 5.3 and methodology for recovery of each component is as under:
5.9.6.1 SLDC Charges (To be recovered on monthly basis) : SLDC charges will be derived
corresponding to annual operating and maintenance costs to be determined as per
regulation 5 of 2005 issued by GERC. It comprises employee expense, R&M expense, A&G
expense, interest on working capital and RLDC related fees and charges, ULD&C & related
project charges, WAM charges etc.
5.9.6.2 SLDC fees (To be recovered on semi-annual basis) : Annual SLDC Fees is to be determined
based on annual capital cost of approved CAPEX schemes for specified control period . The
annualized capital cost shall comprise cost of amortization over control period, interest and
financing cost, return on equity and provision for tax. The capital expenditure is determined
as per norms specified by Hon’ble commission and other relevant regulation.
The total capital Annual Revenue Requirement for the FY 2010-11 is projected based on
methodologies discussed in detail in subsequent paragraphs. The fixed cost calculated for
SLDC is excluded from the annual revenue requirement filed by GETCO for determination of
transmission charges.
For the estimation of Interest on Loans in FY 11-12, SLDC has taken basis of interest &
financial expenses estimated for FY 2010-11. The capital expenditure during 2011-12 has
been assumed to be undertaken at a normative debt: equity ratio of 70:30 in accordance
with the GERC (Levy and collection of fees and charges for SLDC).

For the purpose of calculation of interest, the actual weighted average rate of interest is
estimated as per the table below based on the actual interest rate for existing loan 10.25%
and 10.50 % for future CAPEX during the FY 2011-12
For the purpose of repayment, average tenure of the loan has been assumed as 10 years
for all loan portion allocated to SLDC from GETCO loans and accordingly repayments for FY
10-11 and for the control period have been calculated.
Depreciation for the year has been calculated considered as per Company’s Act provisions
for various blocks of assets. The weighted average rate for depreciation for FY 2009-10
works out to be 6.62% from estimated accounts. The increase in the rate of depreciation is
mainly due to revision in the depreciation rate of IT related assets from 6.33% to 16.21%.

The fixed assets related to SLDC were segregated after detailed analysis of the books of
accounts. Assets related to SLDC were identified along with the proportionate depreciation
on the same from the fixed assets prepared at circle level. All such assets have been
transferred to the SLDC’s accounts from respective circle offices. Depreciation on these
assets for FY 2010-11 is estimated based on books of accounts up to March’10 and
estimated for FY 2010-11. Depreciation for remaining period is calculated based on a
detailed analysis of the fixed asset schedule, the balance useful life of the assets, and the
depreciation rate for each fixed assets.
Rate of return on equity is considered as 14% p.a. in line with the norms specified by the
Hon’ble Commission vide regulation “ Levy and collection of SLDC fees and charges by SLDC
2005”
SLDC humbly request the Hon’ble Commission to allow above taxes to be recovered from
the beneficiaries.
In accordance with the above said regulation (“Levy and collection of fees and charges by
state load dispatch centre”), GETCO shall be required to maintain separate accounts for
SLDC activity. Accordingly the segregation of accounts of SLDC from GETCO is already
completed from the position as on 31st Mar’2010. As a part of the process and as per the
above Regulation, the operating charges are being filed based on the staffing plan now
envisaged.
The details of the Annual Operating charges i.e. Employee cost, Administration and General
charges, Repairs and Maintenance charges, Interest on working capital and other charges

Employee expenses include salaries, bonus, other benefits like medical expense
reimbursement, Leave travel allowances etc. and terminal benefits in the form of pension,
gratuity, leave encashment, staff welfare etc.
The Petitioner submits that the employee cost for existing staff has been estimated
considering trends of past year’s employee cost, increase in dearness allowance, its merger
and its impact on other allowances such as HRA, field allowances, PF, CPF etc. Additionally,
increase in salary due to regular increments as well as promotion has also been considered.
Retirement and terminal benefits (PF, Gratuity, EL Encashment etc.) were previously
considered in the GTECO books therefore the expenses were not shown in the SLDC books.
But as now SLDC is to be separated from GETCO, the expenses pertaining to Retirement and
terminal benefits has been transferred into the books of SLDC.
Considering the above, the percentage increase in existing employee cost has been
considered @ 10% on yearly basis during the control period. The estimated employee cost
for the period FY 2010-11 to 2015-16 are summarized in the table below.
As the new company formation decision is still pending with GOG, SLDC has not considered
the increase in the employee cost arising out of hiring new employees after the company
formation.
The administration of SLDC is presently exercised as a separate unit of GETCO as per order
of GOG. The expenses like most of administration cost like professional charges, internal
audit fee (internal & statutory), taxation matters, legal expenses and statutory fees etc. is
carried out from corporate office.
GUVNL and its subsidiaries have established an end to end IT Solution i.e. e-Urja Project. It
is estimated that an amount of Rs.100 Lacs per year will be allocated to SLDC from GETCO
for computerization and maintenance of the system, as a part of A&G Expenses.
Further , as per recommendation of GoG and subsequent action plan suggested by Ministry
of Power for “Ring Fencing and Autonomy of SLDC” , SLDCs has to obtain ISO certifications.
Accordingly, SLDC-Gujarat has initiated action for obtaining ISO as Integrated Management
System which comprises ISO 9001, OHSAS and relevant certificates. As the proposal of the
new company formation is pending with GOG the same expenses has been carried over to
next Financial Year. The details of A&G expenses are given below. Increase in A&G expenses
is due to separation of SLDC from GETCO, which will create need to appoint separate
consultants, Internal & Statuary auditors and other related expenses.
Further, maintenance and fixed costs is shared by GETCO (Gujarat) for the various assets
created by PGCIL in the western region covered in “Central Portion” of ULD&C scheme. The
maintenance and fixed costs is being pooled and shared by WR- constituents. Therefore,
the cost of such projects is also apportioned to Gujarat entities through SLDC-fees and
charges mechanism.
It was decided during the 10th WRPC meeting held on 30th May’2009 Annual Maintenance
contract for Wideband communication equipment to M/s. Ericsson India Pvt. Ltd. for a
period of 3 years and is extendable for 2 more years at the same rate. The cost of such
maintenance contract is not included in the AMC of SCADA. The price has been negotiated
and as decided by WRPC, it is to be shared by WR-Constituents.
Further , it was decided during the 7th WRPC meeting held on 3rd May’2008 that back up
communication links to be provided from SLDCs and Strategic locations in the networks of
ULD&C scheme. The WRPC agreed for above scheme. Accordingly, OPGW cable from
Jambua to Gotri and Asoj to Jambua is proposed by PGCIL. It was decided that beneficiaries
of WR would share the cost in respect of above back up communication link. The project is
under progress and it is likely to be finished in this Financial Year. Payment regarding this
has already been made by SLDC in the current Financial Year.
It was further resolved in 7th meeting of WRPC that cost of shifting of SLDC Bhilai to Raipur
in the network of ULD&C scheme is to be pooled and shared by WR-beneficiaries. The
project is currently under progress and likely to be finished by end of this financial year.
Payment for the same has already been made in the current financial year.

Considering above, the repairs and maintenance expenses have been escalated @ 10% on
year to year basis during the control period. Moreover, it is economical for incurring
expenditure on repairs and maintenance compared to the replacement of old asset with
new asset.
The working capital is projected to comprise 1/12th of O&M expenses, maintenance spares

The interest rate has been considered at the rate of 11.75% as per Prime Lending Rate (PLR)
as on 1st April’2010 which has been instructed by the commission in Notification No.5 of
2005, Levy and Collection of Fees and Charges by SLDC Regulations. Maintenance spares is
calculated on the basis of 6% escalated value of the last year’s maintenance spares plus 1%
of the value of assets that are added in the given year. The calculation of interest on
working capital is shown in Table-51.
As decided in 7th WRPC meeting dated 15th May’2008, WRPC gave their approval for total
annual expenditure of WRPC secretariat. It was agreed that the same will be equally shared
by each WRPC member and reimburse expenditure of WRPC secretariat. SLDC-Gujarat is
member of WRPC participating from Gujarat. Hence expenditure of WRPC secretariat
charges is to paid by SLDC-Gujarat.
Accordingly, SLDC-Gujarat has to share charges of WRLDC/WRPC for the specified control
period. We have considered 10% escalation in the WRPC/WRLDC charges for the control
year 2011-12 to 2015-16.
In the 8th meeting of WRPC held on 12th September’2008, WRLDC had intimated that ULDC
project was under extended AMC period upto 31.05.2009 and stressed the need for going
in for a comprehensive Long Term Service Agreement (LTSA). In this connection, it was
informed to the committee that M/s. GE has submitted offer to take up AMC which broadly
covered the scope of SCADA/EMS/DTS software as well as hardware of SLDC/Sub-LDCs.
Subsequently, negotiation committee has been formed and deliberate on various options &
aspects. It was also agreed by all committee member of WR including SLDC-Gujarat in 10th
meeting that WRLDC/PGCIL would go ahead with awarding of maintenance of SCADA/EMS
system in Western Region to M/s GE and LTSA arrangements with them. Accordingly, the
aforesaid annual maintenance contract is commenced from 14 th August’09. Percentage
sharing of GETCO is also decided as 17.36% as per agreement executed with PGCIL.

“(3) The State Load Dispatch Centre may levy and collect such fee and charges from the
generating companies and licensees engaged in intra-State transmission of electricity as
may be specified by the State Commission.”
“Expenses incurred by the SLDC in the discharge of its functions as specified in Section 32 of
the Electricity Act shall be recovered from the Generating Companies and Licensees
through Charges.”
5.15.3 In pursuance of above said regulation, SLDC has to recover annual revenue requirement
against capital expenditure as well as O&M Charges as SLDC fees (on half-yearly basis) and
SLDC charges (on monthly basis). The principle for recovery of “SLDC fees and charges” in
order to recover annual revenue requirement is proposed in Para 5.3 of this application.
5.15.4 Applicant, therefore, proposed methodology for to recovery of SLDC charges and fees in
accordance with GERC regulation “levy and collection of SLDC Charges’ are as under :
Note:
(i) If any beneficiary/generating station is entering as Long term open access users
within part of six months, proportionate fees shall be recovered for equivalent
period. For example : If any generating station is added into grid from 1 st July of
year, their fees will be calculated proportionately (1x 3/6x SLDC fees for HY) for
each MW quantum.
(ii) If any beneficiary/generating company is entering within part of month (i.e. for
few days), same will be consider equivalent to one month for the purpose of
recovery of SLDC fees.
(iii) In case of any upward revision occurred in capacity/allocation during the part of
six months, the additional SLDC fees shall be recovered for the remaining period
for the additional capacity.
Note:
(i) If any generating station / beneficiaries entered as Long term open access
users within part of months, their charges shall be reduced proportionately
for equivalent period. For example : If any generating station entered on 11 th
of the Month ( considering 30 days in a month), their charges will be
calculated in proportion with (20/30)x(SLDC Charges per Month) for 1 MW.
(iii) In case of any upward revision occurred in capacity/allocation during the part
of months, the additional SLDC charges shall be recovered for the remaining
period for the additional capacity.
State Load Dispatch Centre has mandated under Section 32(1) to ensure integrated operation
of the State. It is the responsibility of SLDC that while allowing new generating station, license
or element to the grid, the integrated operation of State Power System should not be
affected. Also it is necessary to ensure the appropriate scheduling, Energy Accounting under
section 32(3) of IE Act’2003.
In order to exercise above, SLDC has to study various agreements, legal documents,
verification of technical information submitted to SLDC and to carry out comprehensive
system study in different scenario. It may involve site visit if required. By careful
consideration of above, SLDC-Gujarat hereby proposes to increase the registration fee from
Rs.10,000/- to Rs. 1,00,000/- and to amend the clause no. 3(1) of regulation 5 of 2005.
5.17 Proposed SLDC Fees and Charges for the Control Period
The Applicant proposes the SLDC Charges and fees during the control period as follows:

5.19 Capital Expenditure Plan for the MYT period 2011-12 to 2015-16
This portion comprises of revised Capital Expenditure plans with addition/modification to
earlier proposed by SLDC-Gujarat for the control period from FY 2011-12. Total capital
expenditure proposed during the FY 2011-12 is Rs. 495 Lacs in view of strengthening of
State Load Dispatch Centre.
rate. A few of the applications (such as SCADA/EMS) are offered by a limited number of
vendors and costs are high.
In view of revised role of State Load Dispatch Centre after enactment of Electricity Act’2003, it
is necessary to strengthen SLDC to meet forthcoming challenges for next three years.
Accordingly, Capital Expenditure (CAPEX) is planned for modernization of SLDC, to strengthen
and develop to meet all forthcoming challenges during year 2011-12.
In accordance with recommendation 1(c ) and 1(d) of Girish Pradhan Committee endorsed by
GoI, Capital Expenditure (CAPEX) plans for modernization of all LDCs during 2009-12 should be
submitted and the approval of the respective Electricity Regulatory Commission (ERC) should
be obtained by 31st March 2009. Further, rolling 5-year CAPEX plans should be prepared by
each LDC and got approved by the respective ERCs to take care of the system expansion,
associated real-time data requirements as well as technological innovations and obsolescence
of control centre equipment. Hereby, the applicant submits five year CAPEX plan to Hon’ble
commission for approval.
CAPEX plan includes, projects mainly focused on system expansion, real time data
requirements, installation & development of telemeter infrastructure, technological
innovations and obsolesce & replacement of existing infrastructure, strengthening of existing
data communication channels, billing & commercial centre development, system study and IT
related infrastructure
SLDC has planned for creating infrastructure related with formation of separate company and
submitted to Hon’ble commission. However, due to delay in forming separate company, SLDC
has revised the capital expenditure plan for ensuing year and estimated planned capital
expenditure for FY 2011-12 accordingly.
The other aspect is the expansion and development of State electricity market. The
accelerated development of electricity markets are underway calls for requirement of SLDC
infrastructure. The SLDC capacity is largely depends upon the number of participants, capacity
handled, size of electricity network and number of generating station and substation modelled
for monitoring and control covers off line service cost. The present government has launched
a series of attracting policies for new generation, transmission companies and other small
captive/hydro generations. A number of forthcoming projects are going to be added in state
for which SLDC has to strengthen towards its commitment.
The other activities outlined in the CAPEX plan address the responsibilities and commitment of
SLDC towards new industry structure including needed evolution of State electricity market.
This covers a huge amount of investment because SLDC has to make a transition from existing
dependencies and redefine existing services to revised electricity market.
While redefining the existing services and development of SLDC, it brings uncertainties over
current and potential future regarding new capacity initiatives because the planning capacity
and schedules is changing over a period of time. The additional resources needed to identify
specifically while formulating CAPEX plan to address these uncertainties. The SLDC anticipate
that significant support is required for successful transition for SLDC to new structure.
stakeholders for their input and change in rules, which are to be facilitated by SLDC as an
independent power system operator. Therefore, the change in procedure requires huge
involvement and initiatives of SLDC and managed through formulation of Review Panel (Grid
Code Review Panel) as mandated by GERC. Such unanticipated changes bring uncertainties
over a planning of CAPEX for future years.
Whenever disturbance occurs in the system triggered by number of failures at various level
from within Gujarat power system or outside Gujarat Power System, it enlighten issues related
with what is needed to improve procedures and practices as a remedial measures across
industry. It may result into suggestion for strengthening of SLDC/RLDC like upgrading
standards for electricity system reliability, communication infrastructures,
tools/facilities/training and technology requirement to prevent all such failures in future. The
SLDC has to comply all such requirement and cost associated with such compliance may
change cost equation of budgeted plan because of unpredictable needs which brings
uncertainties over CAPEX planning process.
CAPEX plan shall be prepared by keeping 50 Lacs (earlier it was kept 25%) provision of
total budget to address uncertainties and other contingencies over a control period.
Accumulated surplus at the end of year or plan period shall be carried forwarded and will
be utilized to address uncertainties over planning period.
Load forecast (based on growth factor) and capacity projected shall be constant
throughout the control period.
Average annual floating rate interest on long term finance loan of SLDC (if exist after
separation of funding of SLDC), shall be in the range of 3-4% variation over the planning
period.
CAPEX Plan does not cover accidental expenditure due to natural hazards/calamities if
any during control period. Such expenditure shall be separately prepared as
“contingency plan” in such a way to recover full expenditure at the end of year (if period
of remaining recovery is more than three months). Otherwise same shall be recovered in
next control period.
System Improvement
System improvements represent both functional improvement to existing systems (e.g.
Energy Management System) and upgrades to systems/software. Since most of the SLDC
systems were developed and deployed prior to 2002, large portions of the existing systems
are planned for upgrade or replacement over the planning period. Current applications
