Power Exchange
Power exchange is a spot market mainly day ahead, like anyother market matches demand & supply for each time block,
providing a public price Index.
A Power exchange facilitates equitable, transparent and efficient trading of power.
Bridges the demand supply mismatch by bringing larger players together for buying and selling in an auction based
system.
While maintaining complete anonymity, resolves the constraints in the earlier formats, Viz. search costs, transaction costs,
and counter-party risks.

Power Exchange
Presently CERC has allowed only Day ahead Market (DAM)
At present CERC has allowed only National level operated Power exchanges. In due course if need arises Regional level
operated exchanges might come.
In power exchanges, as per CERC norms the price discovery is through Double sided closed auction.
Collective transaction means a set of transactions discovered in power exchange through anonymous, simultaneous
competitive bidding by buyers and sellers
For Power Exchange transactions the Nodal agency will be National Load Despatch Centre (NLDC).
Generally the ATC declaration is done by NLDC on its web site every day.
Depending on the corridor availabilities the solution is found out by the power exchanges and the allowed trades will be
intimated to NLDC.
If there is no congestion NLDC will accept the trades and issue the schedules to the power exchange and the same will be
implemented in RLDC schedules.
In Power Exchange transactions both buyer and seller have to pay the Transmission and operating charges separately.
The transmission losses also have to be borne by the buyer and seller separately.

Power trading mechanism
Long-term Power Purchase Agreements
– Power from various generating stations is allocated to State Electricity Boards (SEBs) and distribution companies
(Discoms) at the price determined on the basis of historical cost based tariff principles notified by the regulatory
commission or as per the Power Purchase Agreement (PPA). The SEBs/Discoms, which have the obligation to provide
electricity to their consumers, mainly rely on supplies from these long-term contracts. The annual transmission charges,
which are determined after deducting adjustable revenue from short term customers, are shared by the long term
customers. Generally for the last couple of years on an average 89% of electricity has been traded by long term power
purchase agreements and 11% by short term trading.
Short-Term Bilateral Contracts:
– Short-term contracts are mostly inter-state or inter-regional, requiring open access through the Central Transmission
Utility (CTU) network and purchase and sale of electricity takes place mostly through traders, which have been granted
license by the CERC.
- 34. Copyright © 2016 Your Company All Rights Reserved. 34
Types of transactions
“Bilateral transactions”means a transaction for exchange of energy (Mwh) between a specified buyer and a specified
seller, Directly or through a trading licensee, or discovered at power exchange through anonymous bidding from a
specified point of injection to a specified point of drawl for a fixed or varying quantum of power (MW) for a fixed or varying
quantum of power for any time period during a month.
“Collective Transaction” means a set of transaction discovered in power exchange through anonymous, simultaneous
competitive bidding by buyers and sellers.

Short term bilateral contracts
Short-term contracts are mostly inter-state or inter-regional, requiring open access through the Central Transmission Utility
(CTU) network and purchase and sale of electricity takes place mostly through the traders, which have been granted
license by the CERC.
Bilateral Trading in Short term Transaction Market :
– As Power Market is expanding rapidly, more intermediaries are emerging out as a licensed trader. The benefit which the
trader gets through intermediaries is that the search costs are reduced. They had not to spend money in finding
customers; intermediaries match buyer and seller and act as a facilitator in concluding trading arrangements. Both types
of arrangement serve as a symbol of mutual bargaining process where the actual price is not disclosed. In short term
electricity market the bilateral trading take place through following methods
• Through bilateral short term contracts between buyers and sellers
• Un-Requisitioned Surplus of NTPC stations.
Bilateral Contracts between Buyers and Sellers:
– It is a back to back contract between a Specified buyer and a specified seller for a definite point of injection to definite
point of withdrawal

PTC –Power Trading Corporation of India Ltd
Power Trading Corporation of India Ltd. (PTC), the leading provider of power trading services, in India is trading power on
a sustained basis since June 2002 through purchase from surplus utilities and sales to deficit State Electricity Boards
(SEBs) at an economical price, providing best value to both the buyers and sellers and ensuring that the resources are
utilized optimally.
PTC is a ‘pure-play’ trading entity, and does not own any generating units or transmission facilities.PTC acts as a single-
window service provider that manages both financial as well as operational risks for the buyer and seller entities in its
trading transactions.
On the one hand timely payments are ensured to the sellers of power and on the other hand a definite quantum of power
is delivered to the buyers of power in a reliable manner. For its services, PTC charges a predeterminedamount of
transaction charges, worked on a per unit (KWh) basis or as a percentage of the cost of power.
The pricing and margin information is known to both the counterparties in a transparent manner. In some instances PTC
has both bought and sold power from the same entity at different times of the day depending upon the load profile of the
entity.
- 41. Copyright © 2016 Your Company All Rights Reserved. 41
PTC..
PTC catalyses the development of power projects by entering into multi-year contracts for future trading of power.These
Power Purchase Agreements with PTC are being recognized by lenders as security for financial closure of power projects.
Typically, the counterparty contracts for these projects or Power Sale Agreements are structured with multiple buyers,
through which about 80% of the power generation from the project is tied up for long term sale, and 20% is kept as
reserve for the short-term market.
PTC has been identified as the nodal agency for cross border trading with neighboring countries: Bhutan, Nepal and
Bangladesh, which are rich in hydro power resources. Utilities in Bhutan account for the nearly 24% trading volumes from
cross- border sources. Being the pioneer in trading in India, PTC sees a developmental role for itself to increase the depth
and breadth of the market under new Electricity Act 2003.
PTC also views an opportunity in alliances with emerging entities for setting up their operations in the manner that the
business is recognized globally. In future, it intends to set up an online trading platform similar to a power exchange.
