With increasing importance being given to low carbon growth these days, the cheapest and more
affordable option to overcome the energy deficit is Demand Side Management and implementation
of energy efficiency measures in various sectors such as agriculture, municipalities, buildings,
domestic, industries etc. In this chapter, the demand side energy savings potential that exist in
Rajasthan, interventions and timelines are discussed.

8. OTHER INITIATIVES
8.1. COMMUNICATION
Successful implementation of 24X7 Power Supply Scheme requires clear communication
among all the stakeholders across the value chain, including the consumers. In order to avoid
potential roadblocks in implementation due to poor communication and flow of information, the
following table lists the primary responsibility of each stakeholder and the corresponding
method in which it will be carried out.
A centralized corporate communication team can be formed at headquarters of the DISCOM for
looking at activities of overall communication strategy.
The financial situation in Rajasthan makes it imperative to raise tariffs while other initiatives
including 24X7 supply are implemented. Such tariff increases would inevitably impact
consumers and meet with resistance. To address this, the utilities would clearly communicate
their plans on implementing the reliable 24X7 supply scheme along with the other reliability and
efficiency improvement measures that they are implementing. A high level of involvement of
the Government of Rajasthan will also be required.

The table below lists the parameters for which sensitivity analysis has been conducted.
Sensitivity Analysis
S no. Sensitivity Analysis
1 Faster AT&C Loss reduction
2 Slower AT&C Loss reduction
3 Lower tariff increases
4 Higher tariff increases (doubled) in first two years
5 Power purchase costs optimized (rates reduced by average of 5%)
6 Interest pay-outs on past STL capitalized for 2 additional years - till FY 17, instead of FY 15
7 Interest rate reduction of 2 percent for STL for FY 15 and FY 16
8 Higher Rural supply/associated investment costs
9 Lower/more efficient consumption in households
10 Lower Agricultural Sales Growth
High and Low reduction in AT&C losses, relative to the base case reduction, has been considered in
this analysis
Sensitivity: High Reduction Case Loss 2.34% 2.34% 2.34% 2.34% 2.34%
Trajectory (2.34% / year) to reach ~ 15 % by FY 2018-19
Sensitivity: Low Reduction Case Loss Trajectory (1 % / Year) 1.00% 1.00% 1.00% 1.00% 1.00%
85
Result:
The table below shows the impact on Financial Gap under the three scenarios listed above. Clearly,
higher AT&C loss reduction has a significant impact on the Financial Gap. Without the past liabilities
impact, the state can return to profitability by 2016-17 even with low AT&C loss reduction.

Low tariff increase (4% per year) and higher increase in first 3 years (16% per year) has been
assumed to analyze the sensitivity of financial Gap to extent of tariff revisions.

Sensitivity: Higher Tariff Increase (first 3 years) - 16.00% 16.00% 16.00% 8.30% 8.19%

Sensitivity: Low Tariff Increase (~ 4%/year) 5.06 5.28 5.51 5.74 5.98
Sensitivity: Higher Tariff Increase (first 3 years) - 5.62 6.52 7.56 8.19 8.86

Result:
The table below shows the impact on Financial Gap in the tariff hike scenarios listed above. As seen
in the table below, a high tariff increase in the first 3 years leads to considerable impact on Financial
Gap. Including past liabilities, the state is expected to eliminate its losses by 2016-17.

A 5% average reduction in power purchase costs over the base case has been assumed.
Base Case Power Purchase Cost (Rs. Cr.) 22341 25511 28472 34960 40773
Sensitivity: 5% Lower Power Purchase Cost (Rs. Cr.) 21113 24108 26906 33037 38530
Result:
The table below shows the impact on Financial Gap. Clearly, the lowering of procurement costs,
which make up close to 70% of the total costs of Discoms, has a significant impact on the existing
Financial Gap levels.

iv. Sensitivity to Interest Payments
To analyse the sensitivity to interest payment, interest on past STL is assumed to be capitalized for
additional 2 years, beyond FY15. Also, another case in which Interest on Loans for first two years
(FY 15 and FY 16) has been assumed to be reduced to 10% has been considered.
Result:

To analyze the sensitivity to investment costs, Higher Investment Costs (Rural Electrification and
Feeder Improvement Costs increased by 50%) have been assumed.

Base Case RE & Feeder Segregation Capex 2650 950 - - -
Result:
The table below shows the impact on Financial Gap. Considering that other parameters improve as
per the base case, Higher Capex has a negligible impact on the Financial Gap.

For more energy efficient consumption, Urban and rural household consumption is assumed to reduce
by 10%, 2016-17 onwards.
Base Case and Sensitivity Scenario
Scenario Assumptions 2014-15 2015-16 2016-17 2017-18 2018-19

Result:
The table below shows the impact on Financial Gap. The CoS increases because lesser units are sold
for the same infrastructure/O&M costs. However, if the higher AT&C losses and lower ABR for
small customers are taken into account, Energy Efficiency would increase gains and reduce subsidy
burden.

vii. Sensitivity to Agriculture Sales Growth
Sensitivity has been analyzed by reducing the growth rate of agricultural sales in the future years.
Result:
The table below shows the impact on Financial Gap. Lower agricultural growth rate has a significant
impact on the financial gap.
