STAKEHOLDER EXPECTATIONS
● Issues of regulation and policy: Electricity is under the state list and not under the Union list. Hence Union govt has
difficulty in implementing reforms uniformly.
● Lack of coordination among states (in terms of standards, communication protocol etc.)
● Rules for incentivizing themes such as energy efficiency and conservation

15. 15
STAKEHOLDER EXPECTATIONS
Important Takeaways for All Stakeholders across Three Key Timescales
1. Short term: Lay the foundations for success
a. Policy-makers and Regulators – Create the right conditions for innovation and certainty over funding
and regulatory treatment while driving alignment on standards
b. Utilities and Partners – Develop broad-based consortia, focus on creating a stable technology
platform and engage consumers where they are likely to be personally affected
2. Medium term: Reshape the agenda and roll-out proven technologies
a. Policy-makers and Regulators – Review the regulatory framework to align incentives and encourage
private-sector investment
b. Utilities and Partners – Use initial data to help shape the regulatory agenda; pilot changes to the
operating model and processes; share data and use simulation to make the value case for roll-out of
“proven” technologies
3. Longer term: Change the model
•Policy-makers and Regulators – Reward utility innovation and encourage participation of new entrants
that may offer new business models
•Utilities and Partners – Position the value case for full-scale roll-out of technologies as the economics
improve; innovate around the business model to offer customers greater value; and use behavioural
segmentation data to target a greater proportion of customers with differentiated product and service
offerings

SMART GRID PILOTS IN INDIA 2013
(EXAMPLES)
Few Pilots in brief :
1) WBSEDCL, West Bengal
Location: Siliguri Town in Darjeeling District
Project Summary: The pilot project proposes to take up 4
nos. of 11 KV feeders for implementation of Smart Grid
covering 4404 consumers. The area has 42 MU input
energy consumption. The utiliy has proposed the
functionality of AT&C loss reduction and Peak Load
Management using Automated Metering Infrastructure
(AMI) for Residential and Industrial Consumers.
2) APDCL, Assam, Guwahati
The pilot project covers 15,000 consumers involving 90MUs
of input energy. APDCL is in the process IT
Implementation under R-APDRP and SCADA/DMS
implementation is also to be taken up shortly. APDCL has
proposed the functionality of Peak Load Management
using Industrial and Residential AMI, Integration of
Distributed Generation (Solar and available back-up DG
Set) and Outage Management system. The utility has
envisaged that Power Quality Monitoring will be a byproduct of the deployment.

India’s Priority
oEnhanced Distribution
oDemand Management
oRenewable & DG management
DRIVERS, CHALLENGES
& MORE
Smart Grid (SG) – More Reasons
Increasing demand, capacity enhancement :
High Aggregate Technical & Non Technical, Losses (18%50%)
Ageing assets transformers, switchgears, protection
relays feeders etc.,
Grid to carry more power Reliability and greater Security
Billing and collections Profitability of distribution
companies
Energy mix Integration of renewable
Capacity enhancement, reduce carbon footprint
States which are active in deploying SG are – Maharashtra,
Gujarat, Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh. These states have
allocated budgets to implement SG. Private players like Tata
Power in Maharashtra have taken lead in implementing SG
ADB (Asian Development bank) has MoU for a loan of $500
million to Govt of Gujarat state for SG technologies
encouraging Public private partnership in this sector.
North Delhi Power Ltd, a joint venture between Tata Power
and the Government of India has joined hands with GE Smart
grid technologies for an advanced outage management system
14 pilot smart grid projects funded by the Ministry of Power
& the State government
Smart grid projects driven by Private Utilities like Tata Power,
Reliance etc.

PPP opportunities
Potential Areas
–Franchisee for distribution operations – big circles, residential colonies
–AT&C loss reduction initiatives: benefit sharing contracts under PPP models could get suppliers
credit/debt financing
–Substation modernization: most 220kV/132kV/110kV/66kV stations in urban areas can be
converted to GIS by unlocking the value of the land they occupy. This could be taken up under PPP
models
–Rural electrification: through renewable/distributed generation and microgrids – new PPP models
by bundling of multi-utility services (electricity, water, gas, internet, cable TV etc) and other local
services such as postal, land/house tax collection etc to make it to critical size that can afford
deployment of efficiency tools to make the enterprise sustainable
–Smart meter market size: 100 million+ by 2020; 300 million+ by 2030
–Big opportunities for last mile connectivity solutions
Advantages
–Initial partnerships with Utilities could accelerate capacity and skill building in private entities
which could then multiply their numbers
–Selection, procurement and deployment of new technology is always a challenge for government
owned entities – PPP models could transcend these barriers

WAY FORWARD
Indian Smart Grid Thrust areas
Facilitate and formulate a platform for
regular interaction between Indian and
Finnish agencies viz., ISGF, CLEEN-SGEM and
TEKES
Establish roadmap for future areas of
cooperation between agencies, research
centres and companies
E.g. ISGF CLEEN-SGEM on policy
formulation, technical consulting on areas
such as LVDC, etc
Company to company interaction on a
regular basis (opportunity-based)
Collaboration with big Indian companies (e.g.
Tata Power DDL) and state utilities as
immediate opportunities

CLEEN SHOK and ISGF Partnering
● Potential collaboration
● Leveraging expertise of CLEEN SHOK and associated partners
● Possible role in various ISGF working committees on consultative basis
Policy makers & Regulators
● Interaction with policy makers and Regulators to align activities
● Sharing of best practices of policy adoption
Utilities & Partners
● Interaction with Utilities and Partners to pilot changes in the existing models
and processes,
● support in rolling out proven technologies and develop sound technology
platform ensuring mass scale replicability

SmartGrid-SmarterPower – Team Finland / Finpro India
29. ACTION POINTS
29
Specific Opportunities
● Participation in ISGF Webinars – useful to gain updates in the Indian smart grid scenario
● Possibility of undertaking a pilot project, in one of the states in India, for implementing
smart grid
–
Pilot projects in three states (Rajasthan, Haryana and Assam) have been
undertaken by Japanese consortium, which includes Japanese technology
companies, financing agencies etc.
–
Couple of projects are being pursued by Chinese, Korean and American groups
–
ISGF informs that such opportunities are open for Finnish ecosystem players as
well
–
Finnish companies or consortium could propose to undertake a pilot project in
one of the states
–
This could be under a complete/partial funded program from the Finnish side
–
The size of the pilot project could be small or medium-sized. Various Finnish
companies with various capabilities in the Smart Grid arena could come together
as a consortium or approach individually
–
Once the pilot is successful, the project can be commercially rolled out
