10. Proceeding under the Application, the Petitioner has taken up the matter with ER- constituents to sign the LTA agreement as they are the firmed up beneficiaries of the LTA grant. The various correspondences are being collectively placed as Annexure- 5 [Colly]. However, despite its best efforts in this direction, the Petitioner has been unable to have the LTA Agreements signed by the beneficiaries. The ER-
constituents have either cited difficulties or have just plainly averted signirrg the LTA Agreement. Due to this, the implementation of the transmission has stalled.

West Bengal and Sikkim stated that power from the Darlipalli Generation Plant has not yet been allocated by Ministry of Power and moreover, unless there is settlement of disputes on POC issues, it would be difficult to sign the agreement. Relevant extract of the ERPC minutes in this regard is placed at Annexure-6.
2 ;L. !,%;it respect itfe settlement of dispuies PiQC issues, it is sutimiinied, +$at the
Hon'ble High Court of Delhi has upheld the POC Regime and the Regulations made therein in its common order dated 30.07.2013 in CM No. 16060 of 201 1 in W.P. (C) 70171201 1 [Maharashtra State Electricity Distribution Co. Ltd. v. CERC and another], CM Nos. 1166712012, 5721201 3 in WP (C) No. 4867129012 [GRIDCO Ltd v.

No. 5397i20912 [Binar State Eiectricity Board v. uOl ana Others]. It may also be noted that West Bengal State Electricity Distribution Company was one of the applicants for ad-interim stay of the impugned Regulations which was dismissed by the aforesaid order of the Hon'bie High Court of Delhi. A true copy of the order of i i iyh Court of Deihi dated 30.07.2013 iii the matters quoted
above is annexed nerewitn as Annexerre-7.
13. It is further submitted that the aforesaid order was made by the Hon'ble High Court I - .- - - -

Pending the final disposal of the Writ Petitions pending before the High Court of Delhi, the High Court has categorically directed the respective ER-c~nstituents tc! abide by the conditions ir! the impugned CERC Regulations, 2010 with regard to the payments to Power Grid Corporation of ir7dia Limited, under the existing P 0 6 methodology The reievant portior! of the order dated 30.07.201 3 is being quoted below-
"14.. . Consequently, this Court is of the opinion that the applications for ad-interim stay of the impugned regulations have no force; they are consequently dismissed 15. ...
Nevertheless, to put the matter beyond the pale of controversy,

14. It may further be noted that there is not only an absence of ad interim stay of the impugned regulations; rather, the applications for ad interim stay have been categorically dismissed by the High Court. In light of the order of the High Court, it -2v safely be stated that there Is dispute with respect 2s the manner ifi which the CTU and the DlSCOMs are to function pending the final disposal of the Writ Petitions of the DISCOM Petitioners pending before the Delhi High Court. In light of the above, the approach of the ER- constituents is to merely prolong the implementation of the transmission system without any justifications.
15. It is also to be submitted that delay in signing of LTA. Agreement for whatever reason is dela-ying the impleineiitatizlii zlf the trsiismissioii line resiiltiiig in adverse impact on commissioning 1 evacuation of the generation project.
16.The regulatory framework and procedure for signing of the LTA Agreement is contained in Regu!atio!! ? 5 of the CERC (Grant of Connecti\!ity, Long-term Access and Access i? hier-Slate Transmission and related matters) Reg~lizticns, 2009 2nd Para 24 of the Detailed Procedure laid down under the Regulations.

In such cases, however, the augmentation of the transmission systern as icietiiiiieci for giant of LTA shall be undertaken only after agreement of the beneficiaries in Standing Committee on Power System P/aiiningi'Begi~iia/ Power Committee for Searing its transmission charges. The applicant shall submit a copy of PPA or notificaiion made by Govi. of India, whichever is applicable. The long-term access agreement, may, in such cases be directly signed by the beneficiaries with the CTU or tripartite agreement with the CTU and ISTS, as the case may be.

17. It is clear from the conjoint reading of the two provisions cited above make it that in case where the beneficiaries of the LTA grant are firmed up, either the firmed-up beneficiaries of the LTA Applicant may sign the agreeme -- !nt with the CTU. However,
in the instant case, neither the beneficiaries nor the LTA Applicant have turned up to sign the LTAA.
18. The Hon'ble Commission may be apprised of the fact that having failed to achieve the execution of LTAA with ER-Constituents (firmed-up beneficiaries of the LTA grant) the Petitioner CTU has urged NTPC Limited to sign the LTA Agreement witholrt any delay so that power may be evacuated without any hindrance or delay. v; ; ne NTPC was also app;ised af the fact that in absence of the 1T.A-A, it shall not be
possible for the Petitioner to obtain Investment approva! fro.m its Board, which is a basic requirement to take further action in regard to installation of ATS. A copy of the letter dated 05.08.2014 addressed by the Petitioner to NTPC Limited is annexed herewith as Ar~nexure 8.
79. It is further stated that a peci;liari:j: has emerged with respect to the 50% allocation of the generated power to the home state of Odisha which is creating another hold- up in the impiementation of the transmission system. Respondent No. 5, GRIDCO in its letter no. S.G.M.-(PP)-5612013 dated 03.10.2013 has stated that it was planning to sell the allocated share of 800MW from Darlipalli TPS through an
evacuation of such power on behalf of GRIDCO. In this regard, it is urged that Respondent No. 5 being an identified beneficiary of the Ministry of Power's direction
. for allocation of 50% power to the 'Home States' must sign the LTA Agreement - . -- -....-.-p
without any deiay and irrespective of GRIDCB's plans of seliing of its alloeatecl share to any trading agency.
20. With respect to the above, it is submitted that Odisha is a beneficiary of Darlipalli TPS as per the allocation made by Ministry of Power, Govt. of India. We therefore submit that GRIDCO -Respondent 5 should also sign the LTA Agreement. Further, as nnr rUs para. 46. of the Order dated 13.12.201 1 ef the !-!enlb!e Commissien in response to our petition no. i54/MF/2011 for grant of reguiatory approvai for execution of Transmission Scheme required with IPP generation projects, Hon'bte commission has ordered that "the transmission system which have been granted regulatory approval shall be included in PoC charges."
21. In light of the aforesaid the Petitioner is seeking regulatory approval under Clause 3."Scope and applicability" and "Clause 4" of the CERC (Grant of Regulatory Approval for execution of Inter-State Transmission Scheme to Central Transmission Utility) Regulations, 2010. The Project Inception Report for implementation of the Transmission Systems is annexed herewith as Annexure -9.
GROUND FOR URGENT HEARING
22.The petition requires an urgent hearing in light of the fact that the 1'' of the Generation project is scheduled to be commissioned in June 2078. The transmission line from the Generation Project up to Jharsuguda has been entrusted to the petitioner for execution in compressed schedule by Ministry of Power. The beneficiaries have shown reluctance in signing the LTA Agreement due to which, the petitisner is not in position io take up the investmen'; ir: ixpiementaiion of the
scneme.
Due to these facts, we request the Hon'ble Commission to take up the matter for urgent hearing.
PRAYER
In view of the aforesaid it is respectful!y prayed that the !-!orrlb!e Comn.lission would be
pleased to
a) List the matter for urgent hearing in light of the grounds ralsed above.

Sub: Signing of LTA Agreement for LTA mantod to Darlipalli (2x800 MW) STPP of NTPC
As you may be aware, NTPC is setting up Darlipalli STPP (2x800 MW) in the State of . Odisha and fiom where 793.25 MW has been allocated by. Ministry of Power to - -m. bcfie::ciaries. =Fmte= Kegi~n. :Ethis regxc!, vide letter dated : QD-r.bv l ., , bvv \bT?T)
has granted LTA for 793.25 MW which includes LTA of 102.1 1 MW to Jharkhand State Electricity Board. In accordance with the above mentioned grant of LTA and provisions of CERC Regulations, vide our letter dated 12.04.2013, JSEB was requested

It may be appreciated that for the iinplementation of the transmission system associated with subject project, it will be possible for POWERGRID to initiate action for : procurement activities/implementation to only aiter obtaining Investment Approval from its Board and that will be possible only when LTA Agreements are signed by beneficiaries. Therefore, a situation is apprehended to arise when generation project may be ready but transmission system may not be available matching with the schedule of Darlipalli STPP and that would ultimately affect beneficiaries states.

HBN'BEE MW. JUSTICE S. UVINDWA BHAT HBNvBEE MR. JUSTICE NAJMI 'VVAZHRI
1. The common grievance of all the writ petitioners ir, these batch of
proceedings under Article 226 of the Constitution of India relates to the
framing, enforcement and interpretation of the Central Electricity Regulatory
Commission (Sharing of Interstate Transmission and Losses) Regulations, 20 10
(hereafter called "the impugned regulations"). This order proposes to dispose of
one set of applications seeking interim orders (CM Nos. l60601201 1 in WP(C)
No.70 17/20 1 1, 572120 13 in WP(C) No. 4867120 12, 12 l2912012 in WP(C)
No.5396120 12 and 2999120 12 in WP(C) N0.5397120 12. These have been
preferred by the Petitioners. The order also disposes off two other applications
(CM Nos. l 1666120 12 and 1 1667120 12 preferred by the Power Grid Corporation
of India seeking appropriate directions. These applications were heard with
consent of counsel for the parties, on 23rd July, 20 13 and listed for orders for
today, i.e. 30" July, 2013.
2. The petitioners are transmission utilities or corporations, in terms of
Section 38 of the Electricity Act, 2003. The petitioners submit that in the
"Postage Stamp Method", in vogue prior to enforcement of the impugned order
GRIDCO and others were paying amounts towards transmission charges to the
Power Grid Corporation. This method incorporated all the assets of the
conceii~eb regior? vihose tra~smission charges were fina!izcd by the Central
Electricity Reguiatory Commission, tili 30.06.i i . Under the said old method TT.\ .

I -
amount of Rs. 15.69 crore towards the transmission charges which has increased
by 43 % which entails a heavy financial burden upon it (GRIDCO). If the
Trm,smissiea charges Zre billed 100% OPP the basis nf Point 9of Connection
(P&) 12.lethodoi~gy &argc; go up to the extent cf Rs.20.26 Crcres
pei- inonth iiihicii would translate "L aan increase by 88%.
'2 2. ?A:-. Scr~bjee: !earled senior cognse! znnparinrr YY'" U'k b ~ h ~ ! f cf the GHDC?
relies upon the orders of the Orissa High Court; &+6$;+md 6s - i l -
201 1, to submit that there is a subsisting interim order which in effect directs
the respondents not to recover amounts based on the impugned regulations. He
also submits that the impugned regulations are ex-facie arbitrary and
discriminatory. Counsel relied on the following averments in the reply to the
Power Grid Corporation's application for directions:
"10. That the methodology whose objective was to make Transmission Tariff sensitive to Distance, Direction & Quantum of flow has been ultimately defeated and could not be concluded an appropriate
methodology. In the present PoC regime (as per recent CERC Order DPi 30.11.12) purchase of power from Taicher-IT by Odisha which is at periphery of TSTPS is 24.38Pf Unit whereas purchase of Taicher I1 power by Andhra Pradesh (at a distance of 1000 Kms) and Karnataka (1500 Kms) is 20.70 P/unit and 18.70 P/unit respectively. Hence Odisha is paying more as the far offregion for the generator situated in Odisha.
)JcAn s h ~ r i ; ~ ~ the Pic i~~ ia ! : p;aesenlctics c;f&e !ecc?.t2'on q,fi,%joclion point and drawai point of 0disha. Andhra ~ jadesh and ~arnaiaka is'filed herewith as Annexure 13. "
4. It was contended that while framing the impugned Regulations, it was
assumed that States like Odisha Housing Generating Stations located near the
utiiizeci by the ioad for drawing its power from the Generators shall be less. The
ahove r nresumntinn r was hrther substa,?tiated by Par2 3.1.6 sf CERC Statement
of Reasons dated 11.06.10. That document stipulates as follows:
" . . These days ER imports power from WR under most grid conditions, therefore any generation in Orissa will most likely get absorbed in Orissa itselJ thereby using very less transmission network (and hence lower transmission charges). This will further lead to reduction in the utilization of the transmission network (reduced flow on the ER4VR links) and invite lower transmission
J , chargesjijr the generator.. . . . . . . . .
5 . Relying on the averments in the application for stay, and the materials on
record, including the copy of a map produced for the purpose of this petition, it
was argued that the PoC regime through which the impugned regulations have
been brought into force in fact undermines its objective. There is utter
arbitrariness in regard to the levy of charges. In several places or regions, which
are located within short geographical proximity of the electricity generating
assets, under the pre-existing regime, the rates payable were reasonable, and had
a nexus with the distance. However, under the new regime through the
impugned regulations, in the Eastern Region like Odisha and West Bengal, etc +L, ,,,,,-.-m L-l 4- .--I---
LIIG ~ u ~ ~ l p a ~ ~ ; c > llau LW pay I I I W I G ~ eveii iliough i!ic ir=ansrriissiori or generating
assets were located geographically close to the units; on the other hand, units
located far away in Karnataka and Andhra Pradesh had to pay less than the . . rT- ge.;ltisner. 1 -2s iniquitGus and arbitr2rd.
6 . The petitioners also rely on Para 7 (q) of the impugned regulations, which
is as follows:
"...For the first two years, the zonal charges obtained using the Point of ccnnection methcd shall be adjusted such that 50% of the Year& Transm issign ,:lzaqre cJT the IsTs Licensees is 7rzcGvered fF,rGz;gh ,yybrtd methodology and the balance 50% of the Yearly Transmission Charge o f the ISTS Licensees is recovered based on Uniform Charge Sharing Mechanism.

"
7. It is submitted that any system or regime which does not predominantly . - - .- -. . -- - .---- pp--p p--
take Into account acb~al usage charges, and is based primarily on some hrmula,
is bound to be arbitrary, which is the vice of the impugned regulations. The PoC
method is based on right of use, or contract and not on actual usage. Other
counsei aiso adopted the submissions of S'nri "srabjee.
8. p;/Ir. TJpZEmw unw;lrn l !buIllbu O ~ - O T ' n a n - n - 3bll;Ul bUU113bI nen-no~ Cn- the T?iest Bcngal
Electricity Board, one of the writ petitioners adopted the submissions of Mr.
Sorabjee. He argued that the impugned regime introduced by the impugned
regulations cannot be sustained because in spite of the non-participatory nature
of some or predominant constituents in a grid system, they would have to bear
uniform charges. Thus, for instance, transmission charges from the Northern to
-the North Eastern Regions would have to be borne by all grid transmission
participants, regardless of their involvement or usage through such transactions.
9. The Attorney General, who appeared on behalf of the Power Grid
Corporation- i.e. the respondent in all writ petitions, and applicants in the two
interim applications seeking directions, submitted that the impugned regulations
have statutor,. force; cor,secjuer,t!y a presumptior, of Cor,stit'~tior,a!itj.r attaches
to them. That apart, argued counsel, the Petitioners are stressing unduly on the
distance factor, in support of the case. In this context, it was contended that .the
rrnpqm~d ---A i-~guiz:iofis, - 2s in&~,d +F PiJ~tiofirii Ti.~r;smissiofi PoIiry frzned undei- +L L I I ~ Aci, eiivisions a scieniific and rational iiieihod of apportioning expenses
borne by transmission companies and entities. It was argued that while the
previous policy did take into account regional requirements, that did not mean
that such policy had to be continued. The power of the respondents to revise and
piit iii p{ace a sysieiii oi- tariff -which -was raiiolial to all ijszrs, -was
unquestioned. It was contended that 66 of .the 71 users in the country adopted
the new regime and have beer, making payments. The petitioners have, however . P , , chosen to challenge the policy, and unjust!~~ao!y resisted making payments
towards the bills raised upon them by the Power Grid Corporation.
. 10. The Attorney General referred to a study conducted by the Central - --.--.p- --
Commission which preceded the introduction of the impugned Regulations. It
was urged that the National Electricity Policy and the National Tariff policy
envisage a transmission pricing sensitive distance, direction and quantum of
power flow. This enjoins upon the Central Commission to develop and
implement a National Transmissi~n Tariff frame-work to meet the stated
objectives envisaged in the National Electricity Policy. The Petitioners'
argument that the new methodology is ultra vires the provisions of the
Electricity Act, 2003 or the National Electricity Policy or the National Tariff
Policy was denied.
11. It was submitted that the intransigence of the petitioners cannot be
countenanced and if the directions sought for are not granted, the Power Grid
Corporation itself would face serious financial crisis. The Attorney General
emphasized that it was only the Orissa High Court which had granted an interim
order, limited in point of time. When the Supreme Court directed the transfer of
all proceedings pending before various High Courts, there was in fact no interim
order suspending the petitioners' obligations to make monthly payments.
12, This court notices that the present proceedings were taken up by this I->-....+ Luul
C I ril ..+L-.. nlGl tG directions of the Supreiiie Coui< dated 7 t"vla)i, 26 12. The
Supreme Court had transferred writ petitions from various High Court,
involving challenges to the impugned Regulations. They were, thereafter,
referred to the Division Bench, on account of the fact that a challenge to the
validity of statutory Regrr!ations was invo!ved.
13. The Petitioners' contention that the Orissa High Court's interim order of
4th November 201 1 has continued and is subsisting, in the opinion of this Court,
is insubstantial and meritless. Facially, that order directed the parties to , th
maintain status quo tiii the next date of hearing; so did the next order 01
November, 2011. Thereafter, transfer proceedings were initiated before the
interim order, or that it expressed any view on the feasibility of such interim
orders. The record shows that the interim order made by the Orissa High Court
had e~hausted itself, by 8" November 20 1 1 .
14. AS far as the merits of the arguments concerning grant of interim order in
favour of the writ petitioners are concerned, this Court is of opinion that the writ
petitioners' contentions do no warrant the grant of any interim order. Firstly,
what is in issue is the validity of statutory regulations. The power to frame and
issue those regulations is not questioned; what is sought to be highlighted is that
it has an arbitrary effect. Now, the petitioners may undoubtedly be affected by
-the operation of the impugned regulations; they might be casting a greater
financial burden upon them than was being cast on them hitherto. That by itself
in the opinion of the court, does not amount to arbitrariness. As far as the
complaint that the petitioners, though located nearer the transmission assets,
have to pay more amounts than those who are located farther away are
concerned, the argument overiooks that distance is one of the factors which
weighed with the policy makers while framing the regu.lations. Three factors,
i.e. distance, direction and quantum of power flow appear A A to have been the
oiiidino f a ~ t n r c ~ n i ' n i i ~ fivino thr tt.aircrniccinn t a r i f f r n c t c in t h ~ f s r t c oft hi^ P R C F - &-'U"'& L U ' C Y ' Y . . * * * * W L * 1 h * * * & Cl*" C * U * * Y * * * * Y Y * Y * * C U I I L L ' Y Y C Y 111 C**' L U ' C Y ClllU W U U W .
It would be well-nigh impossible for this court, at this stage of the hearing, to
characterize all, or any one of these considerations as arbitrary, or even say that
the administration of the impugned regulations has led to demonstrable and
manifest arbitrariness or discrimination. The court is conscious of its limitation
itl exercising ad-interim J i:lrisdictinn - in a mztter which hzs received the zttcntion
of experts and was zoncebedly preceded by a process of consultztion. To delve
deep into the issues, at this stage of the proceeding, without a full understanding
arbitrariness on the face of the record (the existence of which alone can justifL
. an ad-interim interdiction by a writ court) would be to assume that the - .---p .-.pp
petitioners' submissions are correct- a course cieariy impermissible in iaw
Consequently, this court is of opinion that the applications for ad-interim stay of
the impugned regu!ati~r,s hzve r , ~ force; they are consecjuently dismissed.
15. Dealing next with the applications of the Power Grid Corporation, the
ciaim made is for appropriate directiofis to the petitioners to pay the chzrges
which they have to bear in terms of the impugned directions. This court is of
opinion that with the dismissal of the petitioner's application, there really
should be no need for such directions. Nevertheless, to put the matter beyond
the pale of controversy, .the writ petitioners are hereby directed to abide by the
conditions in the impugned regulations, with regard to payments to the Power
Grid Corporation. In case any of the petitioners makes a request for payment of
arrears of charges, the respondents should consider the same reasonably, and in
the light of the applicable rules and regulations, including those pertaining to
paying such amounts through instalments, subject to prescribed conditions in
that regard.
16. In the light of the above discussion, CM Nos.1606012012, 57212013,
12 129120 12 and 29991201 3 are rejected; CM Nos. 1 l6661201 2 and 1 l6671201 2

4.0 OBJECTIVE AND JUS1'IFICATION I -
Darlipalli Thermal Power Statisn (2>t800?ALA?') is propcsed tc be set up by NTPC Ltd.
in Odisha. As per Ministry of Power, Govt. of India vide its letter dated 17-01-201 1,
the power from Dalipalli TPS has been allocated as 50% power to Odisha, 35% to
other constituents of Eastern Region and 15% to unallocated quota.
Power System Studies were carried out to evolve the comprehensive transmissior!
system for evacuation and transfer of power from phase-ll tPPs generation projects
in Odisha, which include Darlipalli TPS (2x800 MW) as well as from Srikakulum
power project in Andhra Pradesh. A comprehensive transmission system comprising
of high capacity 765kV transmission corridor from Odisha to NR via WR for
evacuation of power from phase-l lPPs (Installed Capacity: 10090 MW & LTA
Quantum: 6080 MW) in Odisha is already under implementation which includes
7651400 kV sub-stations at Angul and Jharsuguda (Sundargarh) along with 2 circuits
of 765 kV from Angul to Jharsuguda and Jhars~~guda to Dharamjaygarh. In addition,
transmission system which incll~des 765 kV Dlc line (2nd) in Angul - Jharsuguda -
Dharamjayagarh corridor has been planned for evacuation of power from generation
projects in Srikakulam area in Southern Region (Installed Capacity: 1320 MW, LTA
Quantum: 1240 MW) as well as from phase-ll lPPs of Orissa (Installed Capacity:
5840 MW & LTA Quantum: 2613 MW) including Darlipalli project of NTPC (Installed
Capacity: 1600 MW & LTA Quantum: 793 MW).
Transmission system for immediate evacuation of power from individual generation
pro!ects has been planned keeping in view the location of the generation project and
quantum of power to be evacuated. Out of the Orissa Phase-ii generation projects
and generation projects in Srikakulum area, power from NSL, GMR and Srikakulum
projects is planned to be pooled at Angul substation whereas power from Sterlite,
OPGC & Darlipalli projects is planned to be pooled at Jharsuguda (Sundergarh)
substation. Power from Darlipalli TPS having installed capacity 1600MW is planned
to be poo!ed at Jharsuguda (Sundergarh) thrzugh 765k1v/ D/c line.
5.0 COST-BENEFIT ANALYSIS INCLUDING LONG TERM ECONOMIC ADVANTAGE
0 about C 214.75 Crs. shall be about t 3.3667 Cro. (refer Annexure-A & Annexure-B respectively)
I - ..p-. Tl ! c a h ? e t r a r r s r r r i ~ S ! vF m f ? m m m
from Darlipalli generation project.
Such quantum of power shall translate into annual energy of about 1111,9114 MU [Energy in MU = (1 600~0.85~8760) / lo3]
if we consider cheapest rate of energy at T 2 per unit on the conservative side, ther; the tnta! annua! energy cost comes out to be =~bouf 2,383 Crs.
In other words, the system proposed under the subject scheme whose monthly transmission charges is of about f 3.3667 Crs shall enable ISTS grid to handle energy whose cost is of the order of C 1198.6 Cro. Hence the subject scheme shall be good proposition from Cost-benefit point of view.
6.0 TIME FRAME I PHASING OF THE IMPLEMENTATION OF THE SCHEME
N-TPC has informed that the 1'' unit of the proposed Generation project shall be commissioned in June-201 8. Further, IVTPC has requested that start-up power shall be required by March-2016. POWERGRID is making all efforts to expedite the implementation by March-2016.

POWERGRID informed that discussions regarding evacuation of power from phase-ll generation projects in Odisha have been held in various meetings. POWERGRID briefed about the earlier deliberations held in this regard and the summary of the same is as given below :
Jan'2016 1 Connectivity 1
Transmission system for evacuation of power from phase-ll generation projects in Odisha was discussed in Standing Committee I Long Term Access meeting held on 28-10-2010. Based on progress of generation projects, intimation for grant of Connectivity / LTA was issued to Sterlite (Phase-ll), GNlR (Phase-ll), Tata & CESC on 03-01 -201 1. Subsequently, Odisha raised objections regarding arrangement for drawl of state share from IPPs.
1 24580 b1520 I 1 1707.24 I
The scheme was discussed in various meetings inciuding ERPC forum and Standing Committee / LTA meetings but the transmission system for the state could not be finalized.
In the standing committee meeting held on 08-Feb-2012 at IVRPC, New Delhi, it was decided that there would be no change in the transmission system planned for Phase-l generation projects in Odisha, which is already under impiementation. in this meeiiriy, Dariipaiii of NTPC was granted connectivity.
In the above meetings, it was clari.fied that CTU is mandated to provide non-discriminatory open access to any generation project for use of ISTS in accordance with CERC Regulation. The grant of LTA for transfer of power through ISTS system for a generation project, either directly or via STU system, is considered based on the power ir~jected from the project to the ISTS substation. It was indicated that OPTCL may plan intra-state transmission system for drawl of required quantum of power out of tiIeir total share. For transfer of the remaining power to other states/region through ISTS system, OPTCL may apply LTA to CTU.
It was decided in the meetings that OPTCL shall discuss with the developers of generation project for their willingness to get connected to S i l j system. Based on this; OPTCL shali come oiii wiiii iheir ~i i l i i of iiitra- state tv--n-,nnq la113111~33~~f i system f ~ r drawl of their required ql~12fif~m of share of
power, which could be finalized after discussion with CEA, CTU and generation developers.

meeting. POWERGRID requested the generation developer to apply for LTA.
NALCO (Connectivity : 430 MW)
There was no representation from NALCO. POWERGRID informed that existing captive generation station of NALCO is already connected to OPTCL grid through 220 kV Dlc line, however, NALCO desires connectivity at Angul pooling station. In this regard, it was informed that the step-up voltage for NALCO generation is at 220kV, however Angul is a 7651400 kV substation. The connectivity of NALCO with Angul w o ~ ~ l d therefore require step up of IVALCO - P- generation -- - at 400kV levei. Further, Angui is a pooiing station where
-- - P- - -- - P p p P p-- - P
huge quantum of power from Orissa lPPs would be injected. Interconnection of captive generation of NALCO with Angul would result in enhancement of Short Circuit level at both the stations. It would further interconnect OPTCL grid with Aqgul pooling station resulting in large inrush of power froni Angul pooling station to OPTCL transmission system through Angul - NALCO - Meramundali route. Therefore, connection between Angul pooling station and captive generation of NALCO is not desirable.
Further, OPTCL informed that they have discussed the matter with NALCO and the connectivity would be through 220 kV line to Meramundali sub-station of OPTCL. OPTCL vide its letter dated 29-1 2-1 2 to NALCO also stated that as per the Regulation 28 of the Distribution code-2004, IVALCO should have connectivity with only one point and connectivity at two points will cause operational problem. OPTCL also requested NALCO not to proceed further for connectivity with Inter-State Transmission System.

In view of .tIie above, it was decided that the connectivity of NALCO generation would continue with existing 220kV D/c line to Meramundali substation of OPTCL or strengthening of the same, if required.
N'TPC-SAIL (Connectivity : 250 MW)
The application for connectivity indicates that the subject project is a captive generation project. The generation developer (NTPC-SAIL ?we: Ccmpzny Lid.) aiso informed that 51% power be to Roirrkeia steel plant o i SAii. POLZlERGRlD siaied ii iai under such conditions, the exportable capacity of this captive power station would be about 125 MW. As per CERC regulations (2009) for connectivity, application for grant of cor~nectivity for a captive generating plant can only be made if exportable capacity is 250 MW and above.
It was further observed that the subject power project of NTPC-SAIL is planned to be connected to existing captive power plant of SAlL which is already connected to Tarkera substation cf OPTCL. The Tzrkera substatlcr? is further connected to Rourkela substation of CTU through 220kV D/c line.
In this regard, OPTCL vide its letter dated 29-1 2-1 2 to NTPC-SAIL also stated that as per the Regulation 28 of the Distribution code-2004, NTPC-SAIL
cause operational problem. OPTCL also requested N-TPC-SAIL not to proceed further for connectivity with Inter-State Transmission System.

In this regard, it to mention that a comprehensive transmission system comprising of high capacity 765kV transmission corridor from Odisha to i\iR via WR ior evacuation of power froin phase-i iPPs jinstaiied Capacity: 10090 MiiV & LTA Quantum : 6080 MLVj in Odisha is already under implementation which includes, 7651400 kV sub- stations at Angui and Jharsugucia alongwith 2 circuits of 765 kii from Angui io Jharsuguda and Jharsuguda to Dharamjaygarh. In addition another 765 kV Dlc line in Angul-Jharsuguda-Dharamjayagarh corridor has been planned for e\ylr,uatlgn gf cg\.yey fmm aeneyatign - prgie& in .s r i~a~y iam zrez in Southern Region (Installed Capaciiy: 1320 MLZ;, LTA Quaniuiil: 1240 MbAd). Acc~rdiiigIy following additional transmission system was proposed :
I - .- 10.4.1 Transmission System for Immediate Evacuation
Transmission system for immediate evacuation of power from individual generation projects have been planned keeping in view the location of the generation project and quantum oi power to be evacuated. Accordingly power froni NSL is planned to be pooled at Angul whereas power from Sterlite, OPGC & Darlipalli prolects is planned to be pooled at Jharsuguda. GMR project is aiready being connected to Angul sub-staticn through 40G kV Dlc !ine and the same would he utilized for evacuation of additional power from 41h ynit also.

Studies indicate that the 2 nos. 765 kV D/c lines already planned between Angul and Jharsuguda would be adequate to evacuate the power being pooled at Angi;!. However, the 2 nos. 765 k\J D/c lines already planzed between Jharsuguda and Dharamjaygarh may not be adequate for the transfer of power beyond Jharsuguda. Accorditlgly, additional corridor with 765 kV D/c line from Jharsuguda to Raipur Pool in Western region has been plat7t7ed. This corrid~r wou!d provide additiana! p=rtf? fnr transfer of power bej;ocd Jharsuguda u:ilizir;g the 755k\J t:ansmissiofi piannec! in \JJR associated with generation projects in Chattishgarh.
Further, it is to mention that LlLO of one Rourkela - Raigarh 400 kV D/c line at Jharsuguda is under implementation as part of phase-l transmission system. In order to strengthen the 400kV interconnection, it is proposed to LlLO the 2" Rourkela - Raigarh 400 kV D/c line at Jharsuguda.
Accordingly, following common transmission system is proposed:
Angul - Jharsuguda - Dharamjaygarh 765 kV D/c line.
This line is being implemented as a pat? of evacuation system from generation projects in Srikakulam area of Andhra Pradesh in Southern region. The same would also be utilized for evacuation of power these

11.0 Emw! of power by Bdisha
Asper diE~Ksion in the meeting the above system has-ben-agreed to. However, OPTCL expressed their concern regarding the share of power to be received by them. Regarding drawal of Orissa's share of power from the generation projects, the following was discussed and agreed:
1. During 2014-1 5 time frame
Power to the extent of 950MW (600MW from Sterlite and 350MW from GMR) could be availed by Orissa. One unit (600MW) of Sterlite generation project has already been connected to Orissa grid.
The 350MW power from GMR could be availed by Orissa by isolation of one unit of GMR project (3x350+1~350) and connecting it through LlLO of one circuit of Talcher-Meramundali D/c line or through GMR - Meramundali 400kV D/c line. OPTCL has requested for connection of one unit phase-l (3x350MW) to their grid.
