Adoption of Tariff
  • On signing of PPAs, the GUVNL approached GERC for
    adoption of tariff
  • The Commission directed GUVNL to make the terms
    and conditions of the winning bids and anonymous
    comparison of other bids together with details of
    PPAs public through website and newspaper notice
    in accordance with the MoP Guidelines.
  • GUVNL complied with that direction and also
    submitted the certificate of bid evaluation
    committee that provisions of guidelines and bid
    process followed by the applicant
  • Commission has approved the tariff rate
    discovered through competitive bidding and
    approved the PPAs in December, 2007

27
Lessons Learnt
  • States facing power shortage, need active
    initiatives in competitive bidding process.
  • Deviations from SBD depends upon the specific
    circumstances/issues affecting the state and need
    regulatory clearance with minimum delay
  • Interaction between Regulator and Procurer
    facilitate quicker disposal of process
  • Reasonable flexibility has helped in successful
    completion.
  • Case I can also be competitive if internal
    benchmarking is done by the procurer after
    receiving the bids and before opening of the
    financial bids.

    bidding under case-1 for 2000 MW of power

    earlier and follow the process based on
    appropriate benchmarked prices
  • GUVNL has received four bids (1900 MW) ranging
    from Rs. 3.24 per kWh to Rs. 3.79 per kWh
  • Decided not to purchase long term power in view
    of the high tariff rates

Third round of bidding
  • June, 2009 GUVNL requested commission to
    approve deviations in the bidding documents for
    long term procurement of power of 3000 MW as Case
    1

    qualification criteria (related to forest
    /environment clearance, water use permission,
    land possession, fuel agreement etc.) in order to
    make it more competitive.
