ACKNOLEDGEMENT
I am neither a research expert nor a trend spotter. I am a management student with
foundations of management principles and theories, who is curious about various sectors
and its latest happenings. I am highly obliged to Mr. Surata Ram, Director (HRD) for his
invaluable support; guidance and knowledge that he shared with me thereby aiding me
in making this project a successful research. Definitely, I cant ignore the technology,
with Internet as the backbone and those search engines which helped me in building up
this research project. Lastly, I would like to thank the ALMIGHTY and my parents for
their moral and financial support and my colleagues with whom I shared my day-to- day
experience and received lots off suggestions that improved my work quality.

Research and Development
in Power Sector
12
2.1 R&D activities in Power Sector:The Central Power Research Institute (CPRI) is the nodal agency for Research & Development in the
power sector. Over the years, the Institute has contributed in research in a number of areas and had
also helped to fund utilities and academia for their research in the power related fields. Further,
CPSUs like Bharat Heavy Electricals Limited (BHEL), and CPSUs of Ministry of Power like NTPC
Ltd., Power Grid Corporation of India Limited (PGCIL), NHPC etc., also carry out R&D activities
towards development of technology in areas of operational and application technologies keeping in
view their commercial / business interests. Other research Institutions like Electrical Research &
Development Association (ERDA), Indian Institute of Technology (IITs), Council of Scientific and
Industrial Research (CSIR), Centre for Development of Advanced Computing (CDAC) etc., also carry
out research towards finding solutions to problem areas in the power sector.
Apart from the above, the Government of India through Ministry of Power has supplemented the
efforts of other organisations in the area of R&D through three central schemes namely, Research and
Development Scheme under National Perspective Plan (R&D under NPP), Research Scheme on
Power (RSoP) & In - house Research Scheme of CPRI. The Ministry of Power (MoP), under its Plan
Scheme National Perspective Plan (NPP) for R&D in Indian Power Sector is promoting research
concerning the development of New Project/Process Development. A Standing Committee on
Research & Development (SCRD) under the Chairmanship of Chairperson, CEA was constituted to
prepare the National Perspective Plan (NPP) for R&D in Indian Power Sector with a view to make an
R&D road map for 15 years (upto 2016-17) and provide a standing forum for R&D in the Power
Sector. The NPP covers the vision on R&D, areas of research, fund requirement likely benefits, policy
and HRD challenges faced by the Power Sector to cater to the need of rapidly changing technology
and resource constraints in the country. The NPP schemes are mainly collaborative in nature and are
intended to promote innovation by sharing experience and expertise, forge Industry Institute
cooperation on cutting edge towards strengthening R&D infrastructure and develop and sustain man
power for R&D in power sector. Towards achieving the above objectives, the MoP provides partial
financial support to New Product / Process Development projects taken up by Indian Industry,
academia in all sectors, for research projects relevant to Power Sector. The Research Scheme on
Power (RSoP) is intended for Research Initiatives at utilities level, involving academia and the
industry. In-house Research Scheme of CPRI constitutes small R&D schemes being carried out by
13
CPRI, Bangalore. CPRI, Bangalore is the Nodal Agency for coordinating all the above three R&D
schemes.
2.2 R&D Schemes being implemented under the Aegis of MoP
Ministry of Power has approved an outlay (under XIIth Plan) of Rs.45 crores for R&D schemes under
NPP, Rs.20 crores for Research Scheme on Power (RSoP) and Rs, 15 crores for In-house Research
Scheme of CPRI, totalling to Rs,80 crores.
2.2.1 Research & Development Scheme under National Perspective Plan (R&DNPP)
a. The objective of NPP are as under:
i)
To promote innovation by sharing the expertise and experience;
ii)
To forge industry-institute cooperation;
iii)
To strengthen R&D infrastructure;
iv)
To strengthen the National Innovation capability;
v)
Develop and sustain manpower for R&D in the power sector.
b. The major thrust areas for R&D under NPP are:
i)
Thermal Power Generation;
ii)
Hydro Power Generation;
iii)
Transmission;
iv)
Distribution;
v)
Conservation & Efficiency;
vi)
Environmental;
vii)
Renewable Energy Sources;
viii) Nuclear Power generation.
c. NPP Project Proposals Implementation & Monitoring:
While formulating the National Perspective Plan for (R&D) projects, it is important to
critically review the growth of power sector, assess the existing R&D infrastructure in the
country and identify the crucial R&D needs for the power sector. With this background
Research project proposals in major thrust areas are invited relevant to power sector
applications. Projects describing advanced prototypes, systems, tools and techniques are
encouraged.
The partial financial support by MoP primarily covers prototype development, cost of process
equipment development, testing and evaluation of products, user trials, demonstration of
technologies and process, import substitution, etc. Part of the financial support to the project
has to be from Industrys resources and beneficiary organisations.
Central Power Research Institute is the nodal agency to coordinate the proposals received
under Research & Development Scheme under National Perspective Plan. The grants from
MoP are disbursed through CPRI. On receipt of Proposals various Task Force Committees
thoroughly examine the proposals.

review.
Research Schemes on Power (RSOP):
Apart from NPP, there is another scheme such as Research Scheme on Power (RSoP) under
which MoP provides grant to R&D Schemes. These schemes are coordinated by CPRI.
During XIth Plan 35 proposals were undertaken out of which 25 are completed and 10
proposals are still being implemented by CPRI, IITs and other Governmental / nonGovernmental agencies. As and when such proposals and their status reports on
implementation are received, CEA examines the same critically in terms of their technical &
financial viability. During the year 2014-15, a total number of 15 proposals (out of 41
proposals received) were short listed for the approval of Expert Committee on Research
2.2.3
distribution and trading of power may be explored and addressed through R&D initiatives in these
fields which may yield sizable benefits to the power sector.
In the light of the above, an MoU was signed between MoP / CEA&IIT Delhi to develop:
(i)
R&D Project in Power Sector; and
(ii)
Development of Human Resource relevant to the need of Power Sector. The
MoU has since been revised to further strengthen R&D initiative in CEA
relevant to the need of Power Sector. The revised MoU has been signed
between IIT, Delhi & CEA in July, 2013.
Under the obligation of MOU, two officers, one for M.Tech and another for PhD have been
recommended for admission in the academic year 2015-16 at IIT, Delhi.
2.4 Expert Committee for R&D in the Power Sector
In order to synergise the Research& Development (R&D) activities being carried out by the various
Government organisations/ CPUs/ Societies in the power sector and to formulate an action plan for
giving fillip to R&D in the power sector, an Expert Committee was constituted by Ministry of Power
on 16th December, 2013. The Expert Committee was headed by Chairperson, CEA including Member
(Planning), CEA as one of the member of the committee and also members from other organisations /
institutions viz., IIT, Kanpur, IIT,Mumbai, IIT,Delhi, Indian Institute of Science,Bangaluru,
NETRA(NTPC), PGCIL, BHEL, NHPC, CPRI and DSIR.
The Terms of Reference of the Expert Committee were as under :i) To review the R&D efforts being carried out in the field of Power Sector by Government
organistaions, CPSUs. /Societies, etc.
ii) To assess the adequacy of the existing R&D infrastructure in the Power Sector and to assess
requirement of establishment of a new / up gradation of the existing institutions, for R&D in
the Power Sector.
iii) To suggest measures to scale up R&D in the Power Sector in the country.
iv) To suggest measures for aligning thrust areas of R&D in the Power Sector for the R&D
activities undertaken by the Government Organisation, CPSUs /Socieities.
v) To evolve effective mechanism for inviting, evaluating /monitoring of proposals /projects and
for utilization of the research outcomes for the Power Sector in the country.
