We have built a unique first-of-its-kind database of power sector contacts in the country.
8Unlike a regular directory, very contact in our project monitoring software comes with a rich tapestry of information on the facility and the unit in which the contact is present, along with attendant business development prospect, if any, around the contact. Every contact information is validated by our team of in-house analysts
In an industrial facility we give you a whole lot of additional information including
-- Technology parameters
-- Design and actual Input-Output data for every raw material and product
-- Multi-parameter utility matrix
-- Long term maintenance contracts
-- Raw material data
-- NIC codes
8A facility is further split up into its individual units and for each unit we have a similar set of parameters as in the facility
8And for each unit or facility, we have a resultant business development prospect, either in terms of maintenance prospect or a capital project, be an additional expansion or debottlenecking or a revamp or a new capital project
8The point to note is that we are always looking ahead and never behind, giving you exclusive information not on a tender that is already out but on a genuine future prospect, which may be a month, six months, a year or two years away from being tendered out.
8Having worked in the business for more than two decades, we know what you are looking for.
8India has so far had a poor business prospect database because the existing databases do not fulfill the requirements of a business development manager. What we have done is just plugged that gap
8For you, a deal can just be a phone call away

There is no doubt that Myanmar is politically volatile country and yet it offers one of the best opportunities for power sector investments among India's neigbours.
8Of late the country has attracted a spate of foreign investments but clearly Chinese companies dominate the picture.
8Indian companies are notably absent in Myanmar
8The Chinese make up 30% of the total FDI in Myanmar, while India's share comes to a measly 1.22%. Many other Asian countries are higher up in the list than India.
8The State Bank of India has begun operating out of Myanmar about a year ago and the bank is looking to bankroll some good Indian projects.

Find out more on why NTPC's foray into retail distribution has gone sour
8The company has admitted that although new Electricity Act, 2003 provides ample opportunities to new players in the field of retail distribution but in reality the state owned Discoms are not willing to play ball.
8The Act envisaged growth of electricity distribution business through private licensees, introduction of open access and phased withdrawal of cross subsidy. But, so far, these goals are quite far from realization.

The new thinking is that dramatically new technologies will have to come into existence to stop global warming.
8The CO2 cost is pegged at $ 85/tonne by 2050 and much more by 2100 and onwards.
8A hydrogen-based energy system is where the eventual transition will have to be by 2050
8New nuclear technology -- using paradigm changing technological advances -- will have ascendancy.
8Among the new ideas are many 2 km long orbiting solar power stations.
8It will not be battery powered cars which will dominate the globe by 2050. It will have to be fuel celled cars, with as many as 2.6 billion cars on the road by then. Or else global CO2 emission levels will be difficult to bring down.
8Carbon capture will have to be compulsorily introduced and coal will remain viable as a result
8However hydrogen fired power plants will be the mainstay of the global energy system.
8The problem is that the way the world is going, unless these dramatically new technologies are introduced, global warming will not be kept in check with the existing array of tools at our disposal.
8This pioneering research done by one of the best research agencies in the world is worth taking a look at

The power sector narrative continues to change very rapidly in the midst of high volatility, rapid climate change and the advent of disruptive technology.
8For the power sector planner, it is imperative to stay focused on the latest developments.
8The new narrative now seem to suggest that the world will need to go beyond solar and wind energy to solve its energy dilemma, which is to provide energy security amidst global warming.
8The new data shows that the domination of fossil fuels will not go away with the introduction of electric cars and conventional renewable energy given the voracious appetite for energy now emerging from the developing world even as energy demand comes down in developed countries..
8Fresh research shows that gas is going to be the most dominant fuel by 2050, overwhelming both crude and coal but the coal story is not dead yet. In fact, coal production will increase from 7,727 Mt in 2015 to 9,283 Mt in 2050. No doubt the share of coal goes down from 30% of the total energy mix to 31% by 2030 but the volume of coal used goes up.

Latest data continues to indicate that the gas-based power will be significantly more expensive than either coal, hydro, solar, nuclear and wind energy.
8The latest data seems to rule out the possibility of gas-based power coming into the grid under the merit order system.
8A quick look at the data indicates that even a bundled package of gas-based power with cheaper wind or solar power will make the eventual cost more expensive under the merit order system at present.

The hit on account of the changing goal post in the power sector will be on the Discoms.
8Clearly, given the price disparities, it will become increasingly difficult to sustain the cross-subsidy approach.
8The sales mix will change and it is quite likely that large consumers may move away entirely from Discoms, leaving them to "supply" only to small consumers.
8Innovation is the need of the hour, not just among discoms but also policymakers and equipment and service suppliers

Surplus power is hitting the exchequer hard as is evident from the latest data on fixed cost payments being made due to backing down of units under the merit order system.
8An increase in captive power consumption in some states has also made the situation complicated.
8In some states, fixed charges paid for keeping electricity units from producing are equal to or higher than agricultural subsidies
8The point to note is that almost 50% of the sale of electricity is above the breakeven price of rooftop power of Rs 5 per unit and this brings in a new twist entirely to the whole paradigm.
8Clearly power procurement planning has become much more complicated.
