OPERATIONA L EXCELLENCE

 

The Company, with its strong in-house expertise in all specialised areas of power transmission business, has carved a niche for itself amongst the largest transmission utilities in the world. Today, the Company wheels about 50% of total power generated in the country through its transmission network. As on 31st March, 2011, the Company owns and operates a transmission network of 82,355 ckm of transmission lines, 135 nos. of EHV and HVDC substations and transformation capacity of about 93,050 MVA.

 

During FY 2010-11, transmission system availability of 99.80% was achieved for their transmission network. Besides, number of trippings per line was also contained at 1.27 against MoU target of 2.5 under “Excellent” category. Maintaining such high availability was possible through deployment of state-of-the-art Operation and Maintenance techniques at par with international standards.

 

The Company follows state-of-the-art preventive maintenance. Equipment health is assessed periodically using “Condition Assessment Techniques”. Maintenance activities are planned well in-advance and an “Annual Maintenance Plan” is chalked out for every asset through live line or shut down as per technical feasibility. The Company also employs state-of-the-art “Emergency Restoration System” for restoration of collapsed transmission lines, due to natural calamities or otherwise, in shortest possible time. Replacement of aged assets has also been taken up as per prevalent CERC tariff regulations.

 

O and M activities of the Company are ISO certified. Systems and procedures are in place and being upgraded periodically to keep abreast with the latest technology. Formats for documentation on schedule and procedures have been standardized for all assets. All substations and line offices can access these documents through Company’s web-portal. Periodic reviews are also conducted at regional level as well as at Substations and Line offices to evaluate implementation of the systems and procedures.

 

Presently, about 30 sub-stations of POWERGRID are operated remotely and many new sub-stations are being designed for remote operation. For further improvement in operational efficiency, “National Transmission Asset Management Centre” is being established to control and operate most of the sub-stations remotely and establishment of “Maintenance Service Hub” facility has commenced, which caters to the maintenance need of a group of sub-stations rather than placing staff in each sub-station. This will not only help in optimal utilisation of manpower and resources but also reduce the response time in case of faults and breakdowns.

 

Options are also being explored for use of Robots in transmission lines’ inspection besides aerial patrolling of transmission lines using helicopters, to optimise manpower requirement/ time management for line patrolling and improve efficiency in maintaining them.

 

PROJECT IMPLEMENTATION

 

Transmission projects are planned, implemented, monitored and controlled through Integrated Project Management and Control System, which has been developed matching with the organization structure, effective working, flow of information and feedback. Project implementation activities involves total project review and monitoring including Standardisation of Designs, Project Review Meetings at regular intervals through video conferencing, pre-emptive measures and advance actions on various project linked activities such as land acquisition, state-of-the-art survey techniques and soil investigations, tender activities, funding tie-up, etc. in parallel with project investment approval process.

 

During FY 2010-11, transmission projects worth Rs.73130.000 Millions were commissioned as compared to Rs.36100.000 Millions for the previous year. The Company has commissioned about 6,760 ckm of transmission lines, 11 new sub-stations and transformation capacity of about 9,500 MVA. These additions to the Company’s network have helped in improving power supply situation in various regional grids leading to improved system reliability and better grid stability to meet the total all time high peak demand of 111GW and 811BU of energy in 2010-11.

 

Presently, transmission projects of about Rs.930000.000 Millions are under various stages of implementation and are progressing well matching with commissioning schedule of generation projects in the country. This includes 25 new transmission projects approved by the Board of Directors in FY 2010-11 at an estimated cost of about Rs.211500.000 Millions comprising of about 8,000 ckm of transmission lines and 5200 Km of fibre optic network, 23 nos. sub-stations and transformation capacity of about 32,000 MVA. Major ongoing projects are, Transmission System associated with generation projects like Subansiri and Kameng HEPs (which includes 2000 km, ±800 kV HVDC bipole link), DVC and Maithon Right Bank project, Sasan, Mundra and Krishnapatnam Ultra Mega Power Projects, Pallatana GBPP, Bongaigaon TPS, Transmission system for transfer of power from Bhutan to NR/WR, Interconnection between Indian and Bangladesh power grids, Development of High Capacity Transmission corridor for phase-I IPPs in the State of Odisha, Transmission system for IPP Generation Projects in the State of Sikkim and Chhattisgarh, etc. and System Strengthening schemes in Northern, Eastern, Western and Southern Regions etc. The Company has an impeccable track record of not bottling up of even a single Mega Watt of power from central sector generation projects for want of inter-State transmission system.

 

FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT

 

The Company exhibited an impressive financial performance during FY 2010-11, earning a net profit of Rs.26970.000 Millions, thereby registering a highest ever rise of 32% as compared to previous year’s profit of Rs.20410.000 Millions. Turnover of the Company stands at Rs.91000.000 Millions from Rs.75040.000 Millions during FY 2009-10, i.e. up by 21%. Gross Asset Base has been enhanced to Rs.503520.000 Millions from Rs.432020.000 Millions in FY 2009-10.

 

COMMERCIAL PERFORMANCE

 

The Company’s performance on commercial front is highly satisfactory, especially in terms of realisation of transmission charges. During the year 2010-11, current realisation stood at about Rs.71920.000 Millions, the highest so far, against Rs.65700.000 Millions realized last year. Post-securitisation, outstanding dues (beyond 90 days of billing) stands at ‘nil’ as on March 31, 2011. The present LC coverage is about Rs.5670.000 Millions which is equivalent to 115% of average monthly billing. During the year, a total of 222 petitions of transmission projects involving transmission charges of Rs.29570.000 Millions were filed with CERC for Tariff period 2009-14. It includes filing of advance petitions, for the assets whose DOCO are anticipated till June, 2011.

 

As per CERC Regulation on Sharing of Inter-State Transmission charges and losses, 2010, the Company, as CTU, has been mandated to perform Billing, Collection and Disbursement (BCD) on behalf of all the inter-State Transmission Service licensees. In view of this, new Transmission Service Agreement, Revenue Sharing Agreement and BCD procedures after incorporating comments from designated inter-State Customers and inter-State Transmission System licensees were drafted and submitted to CERC for approval. Several workshops have been conducted across all the regions with the State Transmission Utilities and DISCOMs for their institutional building for new billing, collection and disbursement mechanism.

 

DEVELOPMENT OF NATIONAL GRID

 

The Company is taking adequate measures for strengthening/ establishing the inter-State and inter-regional links for enhancing the capacity of National Grid in a time bound manner so as to ensure optimal utilization of uneven distribution of energy resources. Inter-Regional capacity addition of 1,600 MW was achieved during the year with the commissioning of Barh–Balia 400 kV Double circuit (Quad) line in June, 2010. By 31st March 2011, National Grid with inter-regional power transfer capacity of about 22,400 MW has been established, placing it among one of the largest synchronous grid in the world with installed generation capacity of about 1,17,000 MW. Currently, substantial power is being exchanged across the regional grids and the capacity of this National Grid is planned to be enhanced to about 28,000 MW by the end of XI Plan with the expectation of generation capacity addition as programmed.

 

GRID MANAGEMENT

 

Development of National Grid through reliable and stable operation of regional power grids has been a priority area for the Company. The Company is facilitating power evacuation from Central Sector Generating Stations through its strong and robust transmission network and it is a matter of great pride that evacuation constraint has not been generally faced by any Central Sector Generating Station during the year.

 

Grid Management is carried out through a hierarchial control philosophy using Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition, SCADA. Considering the increased complexity of grid operation of such a large network of the country, the facilities at all the five Regional Load Despatch Centers and National Load Despatch Centre are being upgraded continuously through deployment of latest technology. The Company’s effective grid management measures and techniques are not only paying rich dividends but also restricted minimal grid disturbances besides improvement in vital grid parameters, improved data availability, visibility and transparency. This is very well demonstrated since Indian Power Grids have not experienced any major grid disturbance during more than last eight years. Even minor grid disturbances in regional grids have come down significantly.

 

All these measures have also led to increase in inter-regional power exchanges on real-time basis and helped in meeting more demand of energy deficit regions, thereby improving overall economy of the country. During FY 2010-11, about 56,700 Million Units (MUs) of inter-regional energy transfer was facilitated across the country as compared to about 52,000 MUs during FY 2009-10. The frequency remained within the prescribed IEGC band (49.5 – 50.2 Hz) for most of the period.

 

On behalf of various State Power utilities and other players in the regional pool, POWERGRID, through its RLDCs, facilitated settlement of UI charges to the tune of Rs.103570.000 Millions in FY 2010-11.

 

Power System Operation Corporation Limited (POSOCO), a 100% subsidiary of the Company which was set up to look after Grid Management function in line with GoI directive, has started commercial operation from 1st October, 2010.

Open Access in Inter-State transmission:

In order to promote development of competitive electricity market, Short Term Open Access (STOA) in inter-State transmission was successfully implemented since 2004.

 

Under STOA, about 19,900 transactions were approved during the year involving more than 55,000 MUs of energy. Since introduction of STOA in May, 2004, cumulatively more than 73,600 bilateral transactions have taken place and about 218 Billion Units (BUs) have been exchanged. Around hundred captive power plants across the country have also availed the benefit of STOA.

 

Being the nodal agency for grant of Long Term Access (LTA) to private producers, the Company has undertaken development of high capacity transmission corridors for evacuation of large quantum of power from various IPP generation projects. LTA has been granted for about 90,000 MW to 135 nos. of IPP projects. Development of transmission system for IPPs generation projects was a major concern especially due to non-finalisation of beneficiaries and firm commissioning schedule of generation projects by the generating companies. Taking the lead role, the Company organized various meetings with power generation developers, CEA, Ministry of Power and took up the case with CERC actively thereby achieving timely development of transmission systems for IPPs. Nine High Capacity Power Transmission Corridors have been finalized for meeting evacuation requirement of IPPs coming up in the State of Jharkhand, Odisha, Chattisgarh, Madhya Pradesh, Andhra Pradesh and Tamil Nadu at an estimated cost of about Rs.580000.000 Millions, for which regulatory approval was accorded by CERC in May, 2010. Implementation of these corridors has been taken up by the Company in a phased manner matching with progress of generation projects. This shall go a long way in integrated development of transmission system in the country.

 

TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENT

Conserving Right-of-Way (RoW), minimizing impact on natural resources, coordinated development of cost effective transmission corridor, flexibility in upgradation of transfer capacity of lines matching with power transfer requirement are major areas of concerns in development of transmission network in the country. In order to address these issues effectively and to ensure development of efficient, coordinated and economical inter-State transmission system, the Company has undertaken several technological innovations.

 

For efficient utilisation of precious RoW, the Company is deploying state-of-the-art technologies such as high temperature low sag Conductors, series compensation including Thyristor Control, Multi Circuits, Compact and Tall Towers, High Surge Impedance Loading Lines, etc. For effective grid operation, high-tech OandM practices such as hotline maintenance, live line washing of insulators, use of emergency restoration system, large scale automation of sub-stations, etc. are being adopted.

 

The Company gives priority to research activities with potential for societal, environmental and national benefits by application of advance technologies and finding solutions to gear up for future challenges. After commissioning and operating 765 kV UHV AC and ±500kV HVDC transmission system, POWERGRID is now working on next higher transmission voltages of 1200 kV UHVAC and ±800kV HVDC Systems to achieve efficient utilization of RoW and increased power transfer capability for transfer of bulk power over long distances.

 

The 1200kV UHV AC technology is being developed by the Company for the first time in the world. This is one of the unique R and D projects in public-private partnership model. Development of 1200kV UHVAC technology has already been initiated by establishment of a Test Station (at Bina in the State of Madhya Pradesh), which is under progress as a collaborative effort with 34 indigenous equipment manufacturers who are partners in this development process. The objective of the project is development and establishment of 1200kV voltage level in the country with concerted co-ordination among technical experts for finalization of technical parameters, field testing, and trial operation etc. and extend support to equipment manufacturers for indigenous development of 1200kV system equipment. This endeavour shall not only benefit Indian Power sector but also Indian manufacturers who would emerge as world leader for 1200kV class equipment. With the introduction of Ultra High Voltage in the transmission system, in addition to enhanced power transfer capability of the line, it will help in reduction of transmission losses and minimise Right of Way requirement.

 

Implementation of +/- 800 kV, 6000 MW HVDC Bi-pole of length around 2000 Km from North Eastern region (Biswanath Chariali in the State of Assam) to Northern Region (Agra in the State of Uttar Pradesh) is under construction. This shall facilitate high quantum of power transfer. Once implemented, this shall be the longest +/- 800kV HVDC line.

 

The Company is taking leadership initiative for implementation of Smart Grid Technology in the country. In this direction, the Company has implemented Smart Grid Pilot Project using WAMS in Northern Region Grid, for the first time in India. “India Smart Grid Task Force”, being headed by Mr. Sam Pitroda, Adviser to Hon’ble Prime Minister on Public Information Infrastructure and Innovations, is a nodal point for Government’s activities related to Smart Grid. Secretariat of this prestigious forum is now being operated by the Company.

 

High Temperature Superconducting cable provides unique solution of large amount of power transmission at lower voltage. In order to study the preliminary feasibility of developing the use of superconducting technology in transmission, an experimental superconducting AC line parallel to existing transmission line of 220kV at Gurgaon Gas Insulated Substation (GIS) is being explored.

Lightning mapping of the system is very useful in optimizing lightning protection design and real time operation and maintenance of transmission lines. Pollution mapping helps in optimal insulation design and maintenance of transmission lines. Considering huge transmission expansion plan, POWERGRID has initiated pollution mapping of Northern Region in association with CPRI, Bangalore and lightning mapping in North-Eastern Region.

National High Power Test Laboratory Private Limited (NHPTL), a Joint Venture Company of POWERGRID, NTPC, NHPC and DVC has been created in May, 2009 for establishment of a fully independent, professionally managed, international class, “On Line High Power Short Circuit Test Facility” in India which shall provide a full range of short circuit test facilities for electrical equipment manufacturing industry and power utilities.

 

Green initiatives

 

Major reason for continuous degradation of earth’s climate and environment may be attributed to emission of billions of tons of greenhouse and other potent gases in atmosphere due to mankind’s heavy dependence on fossil fuel for many of its daily needs. As Indian population is increasing and economy is growing at large pace, demand for power will increase manifold. It is well established fact that growth brings with it the risk of environmental problems, and unless significant energy conservation measures and large scale use of eco-friendly measures are undertaken, necessitating huge investments to protect the environment.

Transmission projects can play a significant role in harnessing clean/green power through innovative and challenging initiatives. Accordingly, POWERGRID, being a responsive organisation, is constructing ±800kV HVDC high capacity transmission system for transfer of about 6,000 MW of power from hydro projects in North-Eastern Region to far away beneficiaries in Northern and Western Regions. The expected environmental benefits are:

·         Will reduce CO2 emissions by replacing thermal generation at load centres of Northern and Western Regions by transmitting about 6,000 MW of clean/green hydro power generated in phases in the remote and under developed North-Eastern Region of the country with negligible environment impact.

·         Otherwise, the Northern and Western Regions of the country, which are deficit in energy, would set up equivalent coal fired thermal power plants. It is envisaged that about 257 million tons of CO2 emission would be reduced during the 30 year lifecycle of the HVDC transmission system.

 

It is heartening to note that their sincere efforts towards environment protection has started bearing fruits in terms of the appreciation and awards POWERGRID had received during the last three years.

 

BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT AND CONSULTANCY

 

The Company has acquired in-house expertise at par with global standards in the field of Planning, Design, Engineering, Load Despatch and Communication, Telecommunication, Contracts, Finance and Project Management. Utilising this expertise, consultancy is being offered at national and international level.

The Company has emerged as a strong player in transmission sector in South Asia, Middle-east Asia and African countries and is providing consultancy services in United Arab Emirates (UAE), Nigeria and Bangladesh. The Company has been keenly participating in projects funded by ADB, The World Bank, and other foreign organizations in various countries like Vietnam, China, Kenya, Ethiopia, Uzbekistan, Afghanistan and Bangladesh.

 

Throughout the year, business development opportunities continued to receive focussed attention and thrust across the entire value chain of the power sector. During the year 2010-11, the Company has bagged 45 new assignments having project cost of about Rs.6000.000 Millions. The Company has earned revenue of about Rs.2993.500 Millions during FY 2010-11 as consultancy fee from its various ongoing assignments against Rs.2690.000 Millions earned last year.

 

Further, the Company is playing an active role in preparing a roadmap for developing SAARC market for electricity on a regional basis to develop a cross country power-grid, harnessing each other's capacities and resources in order to address the growing energy need in the region. Presently, various interconnections exist between India and Nepal and between India and Bhutan. For evacuation of power from various upcoming HEPs in Bhutan, Punatsangchhu-I HEP (in Bhutan) – Alipurduar (in India) 400 kV D/c line between Bhutan and India is under implementation and expected to be completed by 2015. Further, an asynchronous interconnection between India and Bangladesh through 500 MW HVDC back-to-back terminal along with Bheramara (Bangladesh) – Baharampur (India) 400kV D/C line is under implementation and expected to be completed by 2013. In addition, an interconnection between

TELECOM BUSINESS

 

In order to shore up its revenue base, POWERGRID spotted the opportunity of convergence between transmission and telecom, and entered into telecom business to leverage its country wide transmission infrastructure. The Company is currently managing about 25,000 km of telecom network connecting all metros, major cities and towns, which has been maintained at an availability of 99.98%.

 

It is their constant endeavour to provide a robust highway of telecommunication at affordable cost with ultra modern and ecofriendly implementation techniques. The Company is one of the few telecom players with marked presence in remote areas and has acquired Infrastructure Provider Category-I (IP-I), Internet Service Provider (ISP) Category ‘A’ and National Long Distance (NLD) licenses to provide a variety of services.

During 2010-11, telecom business earned revenue of about Rs.1872.000 Millions for the Company. Revenue realization to the tune of 99% of total sales was achieved during the year. The telecom business registered a Profit before Tax of Rs.297.300 Millions for the financial year ended 31st March 2011; and Order Book rose to about Rs.6500.000 Millions in FY 2010-11 from Rs.4100.000 Millions in previous year (i.e. up by 58%) despite a general slowdown experienced by Telecom industry due to intense price wars.

The Company is one of the implementing agencies for the prestigious National Knowledge Network project at a project cost of Rs.60000.000 Millions. The project envisages a gigantic 3 layer Telecom network of all knowledge centres across the country such as IITs, IISc, etc. on high speed connectivity. In this, the Company has bagged a contract of Rs.9000.000 Millions to be realised over a period of 10 years, out of which advance of Rs.3840.000 Millions was received during FY 2010-11.

 

With the focus now shifting more towards rural connectivity, POWERGRID’s role in telecom becomes even more significant as it has presence in rural and remote areas of the country by way of its Power Transmission network. Considering an ever increasing base of transmission towers across the country with a present base of about 1,50,000 towers including remote/ rural areas, a business model of leasing transmission towers for placing telecom antennas has been formulated to generate additional business. In the first phase, tower space has been leased out in 3 States of J and K, HP and Punjab for installation of Telecom Antennas and for other States, it is under process. The Company has made synergic tie-ups with multiple service providers for spreading out of its Point of Presence to more than 2200 nodes on Pan-India basis. Company is also venturing into Multi-protocol Label Switching services as a value addition to its Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing / Synchronous Digital Hierarchy based Point to Point Telecom Network and has ventured into Data Center business for in-house requirement. This indeed is a major leap in achieving strategic network expansion by which the Company has strengthened its capabilities to reach and cater even remotely placed segments particularly small towns and villages.

 

In recognition of its sturdy and reliable Telecom Infrastructure and its Telecom services, the Company has been conferred with “Emerging Telecom Infrastructure Provider Award” by INFOCOM CMAI National Telecom Awards, 2010.

 

Management Discussion and Analysis

 

Economic outlook

 

The Growth rate of the Country’s Gross Domestic Product1 posted a further recovery of 8.5 per cent in 2010-11 representing an increase from the revised growth of 8.0 per cent during 2009-10 and from 6.7 per cent during 2008-09. The growth shows that the Country emerged rapidly from the economic slowdown caused by the global financial crisis of 2007-09. To ensure the envisaged GDP growth, Power Sector needs to grow at a rate higher than that of GDP. Therefore, continued focus on investments on Power sector is essential.

 

Sectoral outlook

 

The 11th Plan had originally envisaged a capacity addition of 78,700 MW. The revised mid term appraisal target for total capacity addition is now 62,374 MW, which is about three times the capacity addition that took place in the 10th Plan.

 

POWERGRID - the company

 

POWERGRID is a “Navratna” Company for more than three years now. The Navratna status provides us with powers to undertake new transmission projects of any amount without Government approval.

 

POWERGRID is also entrusted with role of Central Transmission Utility (“CTU”) by GoI. In this role, the Company operates as one of the chief agencies responsible for the planning and development of the country’s nationwide power transmission network, including interstate networks. As CTU we are  required to:

 

(a) undertake transmission of electricity through the inter-state transmission system;

 

(b) discharge all functions of planning and co-ordination relating to inter-state transmission systems, with certain specified authorities and stakeholders;

 

(c) ensure development of an efficient, coordinated and economical system of inter-state transmission lines for smooth flow of electricity from generating stations to load centres; and

 

(d) provide non-discriminatory open access to its transmission system for use by any licensee or generating company on payment of transmission charges and to any consumer on payment of transmission charges and a surcharge thereon in accordance with the Electricity Act.

 

In line with above, POWERGRID, the CTU is playing a pivotal role in Inter-State Transmission network planning and development at regional and national level. The network is developed based on the National Electricity Plan in coordination with all concerned agencies. Nine nos. high capacity transmission corridors mainly comprising of 765kV D/c and ±800kV 6000MW HVDC lines are being developed across the country to enhance the transmission capacity of the National grid and facilitate transfer of power from various generation complex to bulk load centres in particular and development of competitive electricity market in general. Regulatory approval for implementation of above corridors also obtained by CTU. In addition, a number of grid strengthening schemes including inter-regional strengthening have been identified by CTU for implementation. Above schemes shall facilitate enhancement of ISTS as well as inter-regional capacity. Further, to encourage the capacity addition programme, CTU has been a catalyst in introduction of connectivity, Short / Medium-term Open Access (STOA/MTOA) and Long-term Access (LTA) mechanisms. CTU in its role towards providing connectivity and Medium-term Open Access(MTOA), Long-term Access (LTA), has already granted LTA to 135 applicants and connectivity to 39 IPP applicants with total capacity of about 155,000MW including MTOA.

 

Considering the need for sustainable development, CTU has imparted focus towards integration of emerging technologies like

 

1200kV UHVAC, ±800kV 6000MW HVDC, FACTS, Smart Grid etc. into transmission development, which are first of its kind in the country.

 

Towards development of transmission infrastructure through tariff based competitive bidding process, CTU is also playing key role. CTU has already identified transmission schemes worth Rs.10,000 Cr. which are being implemented through tariff based competitive bidding process. CTU is providing technical inputs in Standard Bidding Document (SBD), finalisation of implementation schedule of transmission system to be implemented through tariff based bidding in coordination with CEA.

 

CTU during operation stage is also carrying out Billing, Collection and Disbursement of ISTS transmission charges besides signing of TSA (Transmission Service Agreement) and RSA (Revenue Sharing Agreement) with the ISTS users.

 

A major development in the transmission sector is that tariff based competitive bidding has been effective for transmission projects w.e.f. 06th January, 2011. Competitive bidding, however, is not applicable for transmission projects requiring upgradation/strengthening of existing transmission lines and associated sub-stations and also not for projects for which Bulk Power Transmission Agreement/Transmission Service Agreement (BPTA/TSA) have been signed upto 05.01.2011. POWERGRID had already signed BPTAs for nine nos. of High Capacity Power Transmission Corridors which have a tentative cost estimate of about Rs.580000.000 Millions, to be executed progressively through XII Plan and for a no. of other projects.

 

Exemptions have also been extended by Ministry of Power in July, 2011 from competitive bidding route for first two experimental works for 1200 kV UHVAC line; works to cater an situation or any requirement in compressed time schedule by CTU/State transmission Utility (STU), as decided by Central Govt. on a case to case basis; for intra-state transmission projects by STUs for further 2 years beyond 6th Jan, 2011.

 

Growth in Transmission:

 

Keeping in view the large incremental capacity addition requirements of the current Plan and to fulfill the macro objective of Power sector, POWERGRID is oriented towards implementation of generation evacuation schemes, strengthening of regional grids, development of an integrated National Grid with flexibility for power transfer from one region to another. POWERGRID has, till 31st March, 2011: Established Transmission

·         Network of 82,355 Circuit kms. of Extra High Voltage Transmission Lines, 135 nos. of EHVAC and HVDC sub-stations with a total transformation capacity of 93,050 MVA.

·         Inter-regional power transfer capacity of about 22,400 MW1,

·         Maintained the transmission system availability at 99.80% at par with the International utilities.

·         Wheeled about 50% of the total power generated in the Country through its transmission network.
