SUPPLEMENTARY AGENDA FOR 64th MEETING OF COMMERCIAL COMMITTEE TO BE HELD ON 29th MAY 2013 AT MUMBAI
ITEM No. SA-1: Implementation of Automatic Meter Reading System(AMR) in
Western Region (WR).
WRLDC vide letter WRLDC/MO-I/1551/2013/828 dtd. 21.05.2013(Copy enclosed at
Annex.-SA-1), have intimated that presently manual system is being used for reading the
meter data of around 935 meters from 110 locations geographically dispersed across WR
covering 24 entities. Meter data is being collected from the meter through a hand held
device called Data Collecting Device (DCD) provided by the meter manufacturers. The
data from DCD is dumped in a local PC through software. From PC, data in the form of
encrypted binary files are sent to WRLDC as E-mail attachment for further processing at
WRLDC end. These encrypted files collected from all the locations are converted to text
files by using manufacturer provided software. After conversion, the data is validated,
processed by using in house developed software and sent to WRPC for preparing weekly
UI and reactive energy accounts.
With system size growing at a faster pace, meter data form a large number station has to
be processed and manual downloading of meter data, its collection and onward
transmittal would take a longer time. Besides the DCDs are prone to frequent
defects/damages and site level repair for these items are not possible for which the data
downloading vis-à-vis meter data processing at times becomes quite difficult.
Further, SLDCs of Maharashtra , Gujarat and Madhya Pradesh has already gone ahead
with the AMR technology meter data collection. It may be noted that Northern Region
and Eastern Region are already gone ahead with implementation of AMR technology.
As per Item.No.18 of the minutes of the 11th WRPC meeting held on 25th September
2009 at Raipur, it was agreed by all the members that Automatic Meter Reading (AMR)
need to be implemented in WR considering rapid growth in transmission system and
generating stations . During the discussions it was suggested by the members that initially
at 3-4 locations the AMR scheme shall be installed at free of cost and based on the
experience the decision for implementation of the same for all locations will be taken
later on.

The matter was also discussed in the 20th WRPC meeting held on 18th May 2012 at Indore
and the WRP Committee decided that the agency/constituent requiring such facility shall
include the funding of the facility in their ARR.
WRLDC POSOCO, have proposed to implement the AMR project for WR in line with
NR & ER and the project may be taken up by POWERGRID for implementation.
Committee may like to discuss.

ITEM No.SA-7: Inclusion of DC and scheduled energy data for power supplied
from unit 1 of LANCO Amarkantak Power Pvt. Ltd. to PTC for
onward supply to MPPMCL under Long Term PPA dated
11.05.2005 in the monthly REA :
MP PMCL vide letter No.CGM(Regulatory)/79 dated 19.01.13 have intimated that
MP PMCL is purchasing 300MW power from unit 1 of Lanco Amarkantak Power Pvt
Ltd. Plant at Pathadi, Chattisgarh through PTC, under long term PPA. The
commencement of power has started w.e.f. 03rd Dec.2012. MPPMCL have requested that
since unit 1 of Lanco is controlled by WRLDC, the DC and scheduled energy data may
be considered for inclusion in the REA being issued by WRPC on monthly basis.
In the 63rd CCM, GM WRLDC stated that there is no provision for ascertaining the
correctness of DC of sellers as per relevant regulations and therefore it would be difficult
for them to certify the DC. He further pointed out that in case all the declared capacity is
not scheduled by MP and the remaining capacity out of DC is scheduled in short time by
Lanco under such circumstance, if dispute arises on payment of capacity charges it would
be difficult to sort out the issue.
In the 63rd CCM, GUVNL representative requested that they have also signed PPAs
similar to that between Lanco & MP as such they shall also be involved while addressing
the issue.
In the 63rd CCM, the Commercial sub-Committee opined that the matter be separately
discussed between Lanco Amarkantak, MP, GUVNL & WRLDC and the decision may be
communicated to WRPC for further needful.
LANCO vide letter No. LAPL/WRLDC/2012-13/219820 dated 21.05.2013(copy
enclosed at Annex.-SA-7), have intimated that no decision has been taken in this regards
so far.
It is required to be discussed, whether as per the existing regulations, a generator (seller)
having only one identified beneficiary is required to declare DC and whether WRLDC
shall accept DC from the generator (seller) and certify the same. Also MPPMCL is
purchasing 300MW power from unit 1 only of Lanco Amarkantak Power Pvt Ltd. plant
at Pathadi, Chattisgarh through PTC, under long term PPA.
Committee may like to discuss.

Annex-SA-1 WRLDC/MO-I/1551/2013 Dated: 21st May, 2013 To
Member Secretary Western Regional Power Committee Mumbai.
Sub: Agenda items for 64th Commercial Committee Meeting to be held on 29th
May’13 at Mumbai. Sir,
You may kindly include the following agenda items for discussion in the ensuing
64th Commercial Committee Meeting to be held on 29th May’13.
Yours faithfully,
(P.Pentayya) General Manager
Item.No.1.Implementation of Automatic Meter Reading in Western Region As on today , WR UI pool is consist of 27 UI Pool members who are in the control are jurisdiction of
WRLDC .Western Regional Load Despatch Centres are responsible for scheduling of these UI pool
members and calculation of actual injection/drawl in 15 minute block wise MWH within and across the
regions. Thus each of these States and ISGSs are considered as control areas and measurement of
electric energy is being carried out by interface meters called Special Energy Meters(SEMs) installed at
the peripheries of states / regions and at ISGSs as per the provision of Metering regulation notified by
CEA. POWEWRGRID being Central Transmission Utility (CTU) is responsible for installation of
SEMs throughout the region and WRLDC is responsible for collection and processing of the metered
data for the purpose of Regional UI energy accounting.
Presently, manual system is being used for reading meter data. For reading meter data, each meter has
been provided with optical port. Meter data is being collected from the meter through a hand held
device called Data Collecting Device (DCD) provided by the meter manufacturers. The data from DCD
is dumped in a local PC through software. From PC, data in the form of encrypted binary files are sent
to WRLDC as E-mail attachment for further processing at WRLDC end. These encrypted files collected
from all the locations are converted to text files by using manufacturer provided software. After
conversion, the data is validated, processed by using in house developed software and sent to WRPC for
preparing weekly UI and reactive energy accounts.
With system size growing at a faster pace, meter data form a large number station has to be processed
and manual downloading of meter data, its collection and onward transmittal would take a longer time.
Besides the DCDs are prone to frequent defects/damages and site level repair for these items are
not possible for which the data downloading vis-à-vis meter data processing at times becomes quite
difficult.
The following points may be noted in the existing practice
System expansion is taking place requiring larger number of stations for data collection
Presently manual data downloading practice is followed once in every week.
There is manpower movement along with DCD is required in case of failure of DCD .
The implementation technology is almost obsolete leading to equipment failure/defects. The
rectification of old DCD is become more difficult.
The cost required to procure new DCD will be more than the one time cost required to invest in
the AMR technology.
WRLDC is facing problems in timely receipt of data by every Tuesday and some time data is
received on Fridays. As per IEGC the complete accounts have to submit to WRLDC by every
Thursday. Due to problems in DCD at many sites, getting data by Tuesday has become very
difficult. Delay in collection of data leads to loss of data, since SEM has the capacity of storing
only 10days data.
We can save up to 200 man days once the whole data collection is through AMR.
SLDCs of Maharashtra , Gujarat and Madhya Pradesh has already gone ahead with the
AMR technology meter data collection.
WRLDC, therefore, intends to automate the entire process of meter-data reading and collection through
MR (Automatic meter data reading) system. AMR system once deployed will be utilized for collection
of meter data form Special Energy Meters deployed by POWERGRID in various locations in Western
region. These locations are owned by POWERGRID / STUs/CGS/ISGS/IPP/CPP . At present about
935 meters are installed at about 110 locations geographically dispersed across Western Region
covering all the 24 entities who are in the control area jurisdiction of WRLDC. As the WR
transmission/generation is growing in a faster space and an addition of around 600nos. of SEM is
expected in the next coming years. As the number of SEM is going to increase manifold it is therefore
all the more essential that the data be downloaded and transmitted automatically at WRLDC to optimize
cost and time.The proposed AMR scheme is to automate the task of data collection from each meter /
location periodically and automatically transfer the same to WRLDC.
As per Item.No.18 of the minutes of the 11th WRPC meeting held on 25th September 2009 at Raipur, it
was agreed by all the members that Automatic Meter Reading (AMR) need to be implemented in WR
considering rapid growth in transmission system and generating stations . During the discussions it was
suggested by the members that initially at 3-4 locations the AMR scheme shall be installed at free of
cost and based on the experience the decision for implementation of the same for all locations will be
taken later on.
In line with the above decision M/s KalkiTech had done a pilot project at Seoni S/S of POWERGRID.
Before this M/s BPL had also done a pilot project at Seoni S/S.
It may be noted that Northern Region and Eastern Region are already gone ahead with implementation
of AMR technology.
NRLDC in association with POWERGRID had already implemented AMR project in NR .M/s Kakli
Tech is implementing the project in NR. Regarding recovery of the cost, it was agreed by NR
constituents that, this will be treated as a new project and tariff including O&M charges as determined
by CERC will be borne by the constituents. The total approximate cost in NR for implementation at
around 250location and around 1500 meters is Rs.1.47Crs. This is excluding the recurring expenditure
per month towards rental and data transmission charges trough GPRS at WRLDC server.
ERLDC, also in association with POWERGRID had implemented the AMR project. M/s TCS is
implementing the project in ER. The total cost of the project for ER comes to Rs.2.26Crores for
collection of 494SEMs at 97 locations (including AMC for 5years). In ER, it was decided to recover
the cost as per the principle of sharing of cost adopted for meter installation. As far as IPPs are
concerned the cost of meters and AMR shall be borne by the respective stations. This is excluding the
recurring expenditure per month towards rental and data transmission charges trough GPRS at WRLDC
server.
It is therefore proposed to implement the AMR project in WR in line with NR & ER and the
project may be taken up y POWERGRID for implementation
The committee may discuss the above.
Item.No.2: Hon’ble CERC’s order dated 16th Jan’2013 in petition no.209/2011 in the matter of the
Renewable Regulatiory Funds Mechanism under Central Electricity Regulatory Commission(
IEGC) Regulations 2010.
The Hon’ble Commission further through its order dated 16th Jan’2013 in petition no.209/2011 in
the matter of the Renewable Regulatory Funds Mechanism under Central Electricity Regulatory
Commission( IEGC) Regulations 2010 has directed the following .
1. RRF Mechanism shall come into effect from 01.07.2013.
2. ABT meters are required to be installed only in the Pooling Stations which should be done
expeditiously. In case the ABT meters are not installed by the respective State Transmission
Utility or Distribution Utility by 31.03.2013, the same may be installed by CTU at the cost
concerned State Transmission Utility/ Distribution Utility.
3. Mock exercise for forecasting and scheduling start wef 01.02.2013.
The following are the brief on the Commission’s order dated 16th Jan 2013
1. Any person could become the coordinating agency , which may be one of the generators or any
other mutually agreed agency. This agency shall be referred as “Coordinating Agency” for the
purpose of scheduling, metering and energy accounting.
2. Pooling Stations that are commissioned on or after 03.05 2010 should be considered for the
purpose of RRF mechanism. Accordingly the IEGC-2010 would be amended by the Hon’ble
Commission.
3. Payment should be similar to the conventional generators ie Wind and Solar generators should be
paid at the contract rate as per the schedule and UI mechanism would ensure, the liability of
which would be in accordance with the dispensation for Wind generators in the Grid Code.
4. Reference rate for contract is fixed as Rs.4/kwh fro NEW grid and Rs.5/kwh for SR grid.
5. Mutually agreed mechanism shall be developed by the coordination agency and the Wind
generators connected to that pooling station on account of sharing the variations with reference
to the schedule. In case of disagreement, the UI charges should be shared based on actual
generation on weekly basis.
6. The IEGC_2010 and the approved detailed Procedure for implementation of RRF will be
amended/revised in line with the above proposals.
The status as on 17th May’2012 received from SLDCs is given below.
