Introduction (Contd.)
• The seventh of SDG is Affordable and Clean Energy, focuses to ensure access to affordable, reliable,
sustainable and modern energy for all.

• Electricity was considered to be one of the factor to accelerate economic growth, generation of
employment, elimination of poverty and human development specially in rural areas.

• The National Electricity Policy states that the key development objective of the power sector is supply of
electricity to all areas including rural areas as mandated in section 6 of the Electricity Act.

• The policy of Rural Electrification was formed by Government of India in the year of 2006.

formation
The aims and objectives of the policy

• Access to Electricity – Available for all households in next five years

• Availability of Power

• Energy and peaking shortages to be overcome

• Supply of Reliable and Quality Power of specified standards in an efficient manner and at reasonable rates.

• Minimum lifeline consumption of 1 unit/household/day as a merit good.

• Financial Turnaround and Commercial Viability of Electricity Sector.

• Protection of consumers’ interests.

Major facets of Rural Electrification

Setting up of Rural Electricity Infrastructure

Providing connectivity to households

Adequate supply of desired quality of power

Supply of electricity at affordable rates

Providing clean, environmental friendly and sustainable power in efficient way.

Models of Implementation
Deployment of franchisees
for management of local
distribution in rural areas. Distribution through
(NGOs, Panchayats, license.
Cooperatives, Individual
entrepreneurs)

Distribution of electricity
Through Distribution
through bipartite and
Companies (DisCom)
tripartite model.
Involvement of different Entities
• The state government should set up a committee at a district level
• The state governments should take steps for bringing awareness on electricity related issue including
generation, distribution, energy conservation.
• The district committee under the chairmanship of the chairperson of the Zila Panchayat have
representations from various concerned district level agencies, consumer, associations and other
important stakeholders
• The act provides that the district committee would coordinate and review the extension of electrification
in the district, review the quality of power supply and consumer satisfaction and promote energy efficiency
and conservation.
• Panchayati Raj Institution would have a supervisory/advisory role in rural electrification and electricity
supply.
Schemes under Policy
DeenDayal Upadhyaya Gram Jyoti Yojana
1. (DDUGJY)
• It has been launched in 2015 to provide continuous power supply to
rural India.

Conclusion

State Electricity Boards should be empowered.

Loss reduction requirements are met by installing load- limiters

Inclusion of all level of Government
