## A N S W E R

THE MINISTER OF STATE (INDEPENDENT CHARGE) FOR POWER AND NEW & RENEWABLE ENERGY

( SHRI  R. K. SINGH )

- (a) & (b) :    The details of Time and Cost overrun in respect of under construction  Thermal  and  Hydro  (Above  25  MW)  Power  Projects  are  given  at Annex-I and Annex-II respectively.
- (c)  to  (e)  :    A  representation  dated  25th  June,  2014  was  received  from Association of Power Producers regarding 'Enhancing ease of Doing Business' proposed comprehensive review of legislation governing integrated electricity generation projects.

........2.

As  per  the  Electricity  Act,  2003,  any  generating  company  may establish,  operate  and  maintain  any  generating  station  without  obtaining  a licence  under  the  Act,  if  it  complies  with  the  technical  standards  relating  to connectivity.  However,  any  generating  company  intending  to  set  up  a  hydro generating station is required to seek concurrence from the Central Electricity Authority (CEA).

Further,  the  Government  has  taken  the  following  steps  to  accord clearances of power projects expeditiously:

- (i) Project  Monitoring  Group  (PMG)  under  Prime  Minister's  Office  (PMO)  has been  set  up  to  track  stalled  investment  projects,  both  in  the  public  and private sectors and to remove implementation bottlenecks in these projects on a fast-track basis.
- (ii) A  high  level  Group  on  Infrastructure  under  the  chairmanship  of  Union Minister  for  Road  Transport  and  Highways,  Shipping,  Water  Resources, River Development and Ganga Rejuvenation has been set up, inter-alia, to review  issues  pertaining  to  various  clearances  required  by  infrastructure projects, including power projects.
- (iii) The  Tariff  Policy  has  been  amended  in  January,  2016,  which,  inter-alia, removes  market  uncertainty  by  allowing  pass-through  for  impact  of  any changes in domestic duties, levies, taxes etc. in competitively bid projects and also brings clarity on tariff setting.
- (iv) Government of India has launched a new policy for allocation of future coal linkages in a transparent manner for power sector, namely the Scheme for Harnessing and Allocation Koyala (Coal) Transparently in India (SHAKTI).
- (v) Regular  interactions  between  the  Ministries  of  Power  and  Environment, Forest & Climate Change for resolving issues pertaining to environment and forest clearance.
- (vi) Regular reviews are also undertaken by Ministry of Power, Ministry of Heavy Industries  and  Cabinet  Secretariat  to  identify  the  constraint  areas  and facilitate faster resolution of inter-ministerial and other outstanding issues.
- (vii) Central Electricity Authority (CEA) monitors the progress of under construction  power  projects  through  frequent  site  visits  and  interaction with the developers and equipment suppliers.
- (viii)  Issues are also raised in PRAGATI, for proactive governance and timely implementation, as and when required.
