Problems & obstacles in front of energy sector in India.

Problems & obstacles in

front of energy sector in India.

1. Transmission lines :- Faults due to lightning strokes. Corona effect. Interference with communication circuit. Problems of public safety. Maintenance cost. appearance

2. Underground lines :-Damage during digging.Fault location.More expensive

Corona

3. Shortages of fuel India is facing a severe shortage of coal.

plants do not have reserve coal supplies

theft and corruption

Coal india consistently missed production targets and growth targets.

Poor coal transport infrastructure.

Main problem in rural as well as in urban area.

Due to lack of last-mile link-up.

Unwanted weather condition.

Establishing strong

non distractive

distribution network

4. Inadequate last mile connectivity

Free or low cost electricity for farmers, partly to curry political favor.

This has financially crippled the distribution network.

Unpaid bills (paid not in time) of Government of India department.Influence financial health of state discoms.

5.System of cross subsidization

Environmental pollution

8. Poor pipeline connectivity Infrastructure to harness india's abundant coal bed methane and shale gas potential.The giant new offshore natural gas field has delivered less fuel than projected.

9. Problem in establishing HPPEcological, environmental problems Rehabilitation controversies Public interest litigations.

.

10. Theft of powerTypes of electrical power theft :

Tapping a line or bypassing the energy meter.

Direct hooking from line.

Bypassing energy meter.

Injecting foreign element into the energy meter.

10. Average transmission, distribution and consumer-level losses

11. Lack of clean and reliable energy sources 

800 million people in india to continue using fuel wood, agricultural waste and livestock dung – for cooking and other domestic needs.Causes between 300,000 to 400,000 deaths per year and other chronic health issues.

12. India's coal-fired, oil-fired and natural gas-fired thermal power plants are inefficient :-

It offer significant potential for greenhouse gas (CO2) emission reduction through better technology. Compared to average emissions from coal-fired, oil-fired and natural gas-fired thermal power plants in European Union (EU-27) countries, India's thermal power plants emit 50% to 120% more CO2 per kWh produced .
