Facing power demand more than 14,500 MW this year, PSPCL is struggling to maintain in-house operations & import power from the northern network due to management errors and Financial Limit LimitPCL can import the maximum power of 7,300 MW of the northern network.
The in-house operating capacity is 6,840 MW, from the 660 MW generation at the private TSPR plant has stopped in March this year.
To meet the demand for his power, especially during the rice season, PSPCL in April this year has been seeking an increase in the total transfer capacity / transfer capacity available (TTC / ATC) from NRLDC to import power through the northern network.
Violations of GuidelinesNRDC, in return for PSPCL, then ensure full cooperation, but also request a discom to maximize the generation of a 220-KV unit during high load conditions in punjab for higher grid operations and to meet a higher load.
NRLDC approved the ATC / TTC punjab limit of 7,300 / 7,900 MW, subject to the condition that all of the generators themselves, especially the generation of 220KV levels in the thermal plant Ropar and Lehra and private GVK power plants, will operate in full capacity.
However, Punjab violates the guidelines by utilizing a full ATC limit of 7,300 MW while maintaining a zero generation or ignored in the Ropar and Lehra Power Plant, after the Punjab expense delivery center (SLDC) which is transported by PSPCL has recently compiled subsidies.
From Rs 10,668 Crore paid for various consumer categories consisting of Rs 6,735 Crore for agricultural pumps set by consumers, 1,627 crore rs for scheduled caste, class retreat and below the domestic consumer poverty line and RS 2,266 crore for industrial consumers.
Consumer supply big is to get 1,928 crore Rs, medium power will get Rs 197 Crore, and Rs 142 Crore on subsidies have been allocated for small consumers.
The state government has failed to pay full subsidies for the past seven years.
Fiscal arrears last year stood at Rs 7,117 Crore.
The Punjab government has paid the subsidy of RS 2,247 Crore, including RS 1,498 Crore in cash, leaving the number of Hospital 2,028 Crores that have not been paid on June 15 this year through the financial crisis to survive on financial land, Limited Limited Corporation Punjab State Power Corporation Limited is managing Complete subsidy payment in the current financial year and cleaning of contributions with the default government department.
As calculated by the Punjab State Regulatory Commission (PSERC), the total amount of debt subsidy in the same 12 monthly installments is RS 17,796 Crore, including last year’s arrears (more than RS 7,100 Crore) Power Plant Pspcl failure which is completely dependent on the power transmission on the transmission system 400/220 KV.
PSPCL is needed to strengthen the system, but it fails to do it for a long time.
The 220 KV transmission line that was identified had not been strengthened despite NRLDC’s advice.
These sources say the transmission system can be a little better with strengthening 500/220 KV substation of the RajPura substation and additional transformers in Amritsar after studying the simulation study report.
PSPCL fails to strengthen the transmission system and the ATC / TTC limit cannot be increased exceeding 7,300 / 7,900 MW because of the system constraints of 400 KV because the transmission line remains excessive.
Plans to install a transformer connected to the new Inte 1,000 (MVA capacity) (ICT) on a 400 kV system in Ropar and Dhanasu and augmentation capacity with 500 (MVA) each in Makuhu, Rajpura, and Amritsar and 185 ICT (MVA) Nakodar discussed between PSPCL & PSTCL, but all in vain.
Northern Grid consists of countries such as Punjab, Haryana, and Himachal-Pradesh, UP, Uttarakhand, Rajasthan, Delhi, J & K, and UT Chandigarh.
Defaulting Degts & Congonerstall Defaulting The amount paid to PSPCL by the Government and Others Department is Rs 3,992 Crore until March 31 this year.
It consists of Rs 2,140 Crore from the Government Department and 1,852 crores Rs of other consumers.
The border zone is the main area where total arrears touched RS 1,198 Crore followed by the West Zone with the default number of RS 1,306 Crore
Why did Punjab struggle with the main power crisis?
