OBJECTIVE OF MAKING NATIONAL GRID

•To transfer power from surplus regions to deficit regions

•Utilise maximum resources from diversified regions

•Ensure reliable, economical and quality power

 REGIONAL AND NATIONAL GRID

The country has been demarcated into five electrical Regions:

1. Northern (NR)
2. Eastern (ER)
3. Western (WR)
4. Southern (SR) 5.
5.North Eastern (NER)

 Evolution of Power Sector

•Indian power sector remained closed to private investments till 1991.

opened up for private participation in 1991.
The Electricity (Amendment) Act, 1998, defined transmission as a
separate activity and led to the creation of the CTU (currently PGCIL)
and STUs.
The Regulatory Commission Act, 1998, mandated the setting up of an
independent regulatory mechanism at the central (CERC) and state
level (SERCs).
National Tariff Policy 2006 introduced mandatory Tariff Based
Competitive Bidding (TBCB) for all transmission projects

 APPLICATINS
• Power sector is used for generation, transmission and distribution of power
for commercial and resindential use.
