Energy versus Climate Change
Reducing atmospheric greenhouse gases, while increasing economic wealth is only achievable with an intelligent mix of all available energy sources.
Exploring Possibilities
Panchayats can be encouraged to take up decentralised power distribution which will lead to increased community ownership of projects, upkeep and maintenance of services. In fact since the estimated willingness to pay for electricity of the unelectrified households is at par with the connected households, Panchayats can generate fund through user fees.
Electricity Regulation in India
The Indian electricity sector, despite strings of reforms during the last one and half decades, is still struggling to close the gap between demand and supply. Power sector targets set for the last three five year plans were not achieved. Providing electricity to much of the consumers, households and industries, at competitive rates with a good quality of service thus still remains a challenge.
