Captive Power Plants in India

Captive power Plants are developed to cater the industrial demand in the scenario where the electricity supplied by the utilities is short in supply or is of bad quality. Captive plants over the years have been evolved from plants owned by single promoter to group captive to the medium of maximizing the benefit by selling its surplus power.

In India, captive power took on a new shape when the first group captive was set up by three companies—Gujarat State Fertilizers and Chemicals Ltd, Gujarat Alkalies and Chemicals Ltd and Petrofils Cooperative Ltd, along with the Gujarat Electricity Board - Gujarat Industries Power Co. Ltd. After meeting the needs of promoter companies, the surplus was sold to the state government. Then came other large captive power plants of corporate groups such as Vedanta, Essar, Reliance, etc which sold its surplus power to the state electricity boards through 15-25 year PPAs. The opportunities emerged after the enforcement of the Electricity ...
... Act-2003 in the form of delicensing of generation, implementation of open access and setting up of common trading platform, has made the captive power plants an attractive option to industries to meet their in-house requirement on one hand to maximise their profits from sale of the surplus power from their captive plants on the other.
Apart from the mentioned benefits, other ones are associated with the option of selling the surplus power through the power exchanges, depending upon the technology used claiming the incentives under clean development mechanism (CDM), earning energy efficiency certificates, renewable energy certificates. Although the trading of these certificates is currently not in practice in India but very soon this is to be adopted in Indian power markets.
On the other hand the Government is also making a conscious attempt to encourage captive generation by earmarking the coal blocks to be dedicatedly used by these plants.
