Power procurement cost vs other expenses
20% of ARR is salaries and pension

10% is on interest and finance charges and other
operational expenses
Even if establishment costs are slashed by 20%, the net
saving will only be 6%
Slashing 20% is also not realistic mandatory increase in
DA, statutory payments, committed finance charges and
optimal maintenance
More than this saving can be achieved through long term
power tie ups
16
Other attempts
Efforts initiated to right-size KSEB and professionalise at

various levels
IIM-K study progressing
Post corporatisation master trust being created for
pension payments
Possibility for swapping loans to be explored once
interests rates are reduced by RBI
17
Why internal generation is important ?
Stable grid requires that sufficient energy is generated

within
Transmission of energy over long distances require huge
investment, which add to the cost
Insufficient transmission capacity shall always be a
concern to Kerala due its geographic positioning
Extraneous factors in remote locations should not hold
consumer to ransom
- Energy security requires that a reasonable share of the
demand is met from internal sources
18
Significance of renewable sources
State is avowed to the development of renewable energy

sources to the fullest
Land being scarce, utilisation of waste land is a priority for
installing solar power plants
KSEB with NHPC plan to set up 50 MW solar project at a
marshy plot in West Kallada
Roof top solar shall be another ideal choice, for which
KSEB has many projects on the anvil
Despite the adverse terrain conditions in potential areas,
Govt. is taking all efforts in developing wind energy with
the help of private developers
19
PROBLEMS
Present grid system is facing many problems like:

1 Increase in demand.
2 Unavailability of funds.
3 Large losses incurred.
4 Difficulty in load management etc…
Over the past 50 years, electricity networks have not kept
pace with modern challenges.
Labourers are not equipped with proper security
measures
20
Folder for thought
Without more internal generation where we are heading

towards ?
Can we sustain without a large capacity coal based plant

in the coming 5 to 10 years ?
What does it mean to us that the future nuclear plants

shall be Thorium based and our sea shores are an
abundant reserve of Thorium?
