1. Background

Madhya Pradesh has fostered industrialization in the state, whereby the Government of Madhya

Pradesh (GoMP) has provided necessary support, be it in the form of developing infrastructure

or formulating industry-friendly policies. This was the sole reason for the birth of Madhya Pradesh

Audyogik Kendra Vikas Nigam Ltd (MPAKVN) - a synonym to growth in the state.

Established in the early 80s, MPIDC (erstwhile MPAKVN) is a wholly owned undertaking of

GoMP with a sole vision to establish Western Madhya Pradesh as an industrious economy.

MPIDC (Indore), since its inception has taken major initiatives for promoting industrialization in

the state, including identifying

growth centers, setting up,

promoting, and nurturing these

industrial hubs and above all

inviting investors.

It has been instrumental in

establishing Industrial Growth

Centers at Pithampur, Kheda,

Maksi, Dewas, Meghnagar, etc.

in addition to other commercial

zones like Food Parks,

Readymade Garment Complex,

etc. across Western MP. Its latest

project, Crystal IT Park, is a

promising initiative that may

open floodgates in M.P. to a

whole new world of opportunity

and enterprise.

MPIDC (I) as a distribution licensee

For supporting growth in industrialization, MPIDC Indore, was notified as the developer of

Special Economic Zone (hereinafter referred to as ’SEZ’) at Pithampur, near to Indore, prior to the

enactment of SEZ Act, 2005 which became operational w.e.f. 15.08.2003. This SEZ is a green field

multi-product SEZ of India and is spread over an area of more than 1100 hectares of land in Zones,

SEZ - I & II. Industries of various sectors such as Plastic, Engineering, Pharmaceutical, Metal,

Textile & Food processing etc. are in the Zone.

Central Government vide its notification dated 3rdMarch 2010, amended Section 14 of the

Electricity Act, 2003(hereinafter referred to as ‘Act’), wherein, the developer of SEZs have been

deemed to be a Distribution Licensee (hereinafter referred to as “Licensee”). MPIDC (I), being the

Technical Report on CAPEX for 63 MVA transformer of MPIDC

4 | P a g e

developer of SEZ, is responsible for provision of utility services which also includes supply of

electricity within the SEZ area to its consumers. As per the said amendment, MPIDC (I) being the

developer of SEZ, filed a petition at Hon’ble Madhya Pradesh Electricity Regulatory Commission

(MPERC) for taking on record its status as a Deemed Distribution Licensee and seeking specific

conditions of Distribution License, for providing benefits to its consumers w.r.t providing cost

effective and uninterrupted electricity. Hon’ble MPERC subsequently granted the same in 2005

to MPIDC (I).

2. History of Supply Business

MPIDC started its power supply business in SEZ area as a distribution licensee from 13.03.2005,

with only four (4) consumers in its area which increased substantially as the years passed by. The

initial contracted demand of the SEZ area (for SEZ – I & II both combining) was 10 MW which

gradually increased to 18 MW during the FY 2013-14 due to increase in number of consumers.

During the FY 2016-17, the total contracted demand of SEZ area was increased to 40 MW due to

rising number of consumers. The demand was further increased to 50 MW during the FY 2019-

20 (presently the contracted demand is 55 MW).

Due to increase in the number of new consumers, it is imperative for MPIDC (I) to augment its

existing facility at higher voltage level to meet the existing and future demand. Further to add, a

good amount of undeveloped area (~40%), available inside the SEZ – II area, was almost sold to

various industrial consumers after its development. A comparison of consumers’ vis-à-vis total

energy sales in SEZ area is shown as below:

Figure 1: Number of Consumers and Total Energy Sales in SEZ Area.

MPIDC (I) took an initiative of providing electricity supply to its SEZ consumers with an objective

of providing quality and reliable power with minimum number of tripping ensuring cost

optimization to its consumers, both in terms of reducing electricity procurement costs as well as

boosting manufacturing efficiency (being most of the industries are manufacturing units) by

providing quality supply.

For meeting the power requirement of the SEZ area, MPIDC (I) had signed a Bulk Power

Transmission Agreement (BPTA) with erstwhile Madhya Pradesh State Electricity Board

(MPSEB) (a body constituted under the Electricity (Supply) Act, 1948 – predecessor entity of MP

Power Transmission Company Ltd) on 29.01.2005.

With increase in number of consumers and subsequently their power requirement, as also

mentioned in previous section, the original BPTA got supplemented five times on 11.10.2010,

05.10.2013, 29.03.2016, 15.04.2018 and 29.08.2018 for enhancement of the existing Contracted

Capacity to 50MW.

As explicitly provided above, it was imperative on account on MPIDC (I), as a contractual

obligation, to construct a 132/33 kV sub-station for increasing its contracted demand to serve its

consumers.

The overall SEZ area is categorized into two (2) different zones i.e. SEZ – I &SEZ – II. The contract

demand of these zones, as on 01.04.2016, was15 MW and 25 MW respectively. The power to both

these areas of SEZ was being supplied from three bays (10 MW each capacity, i.e. 30 MW in total)

of 220 kV MPPTCL sub-station.

After the development of extra space available inside the SEZ – II area, more industrial consumers

were added in the same due to which requirement of power has been also increased. The

anticipated demand in the SEZ area (both SEZ-I and SEZ-II combining) is expected to reach 87

MW. For serving the increased/ future demand, it became imperative for MPIDC (I) to construct

a dedicated 132 kV sub-station inside the SEZ-II area.

The 220 kV transmission sub-station, as mentioned above, is near SEZ-I area, whereas it is far (>3

kms) from the SEZ-II area (where extra space is available and demand is being increased).

Considering higher transmission losses (~2%), in transmitting power at higher distances, and

quality of supply, a dedicated sub-station inside the SEZ area was constructed. Also, it was

observed that construction of 132 kV Sub-Station was cost effective with respect to 220 kV sub-

station.

At present, the total cumulative demand of SEZ area is 70 MW i.e., SEZ – I is having a total

demand of 15 MW and SEZ – II is having a total demand of 55 MW. The power supply is being

fed through 220 kV sub-station of MPPTCL to SEZ – I area and through dedicated 132 kV sub-

station to SEZ –II area. As also mentioned above, after the allocation of the hilly land, which is

presently undeveloped, available in SEZ-II area, new consumers are being getting added and

Technical Report on CAPEX for 63 MVA transformer of MPIDC

demand is being increased. Presently the demand of the SEZ-II area is ~55 MW, and the same is

expected to increase to 72 MW in near future. With the construction of 132/33 kV sub-station in

SEZ-II area, a total of ~50 MW was easily catered in the SEZ-II area (presently demand in SEZ-II

area is ~55 MW). Considering future projected cumulative load of 87 MW (both SEZ I and SEZ

II), further network upgradation will be required.

Construction of a dedicated 132/33 kV sub-station was taken up in June 2017 by MPIDC (I) in

SEZ-II area on post facto approval by Hon’ble State Commission. The construction of same was

accomplished in-line with the agreement as well as with the objective of meeting future demand

and attracting more consumers to the SEZ ensuring higher revenue to the state.

Additional benefits achieved with the construction of new 132/33 kV sub-station for MPIDC are

as follows:

System strengthening and creation of infrastructure in undeveloped area

Reduced Technical and Commercial losses

Improved reliability of supply

Improvement in quality of power supplied to the industries situated in the SEZ area.

MPIDC completed construction of 132/33 kV substation considering the incoming power at 132

kV and transfer of power to main bus through isolator-circuit breaker-isolator combination. The

power from main bus is fed into a 63 MVA transformer which stepped down to 33 kV. The power

is then fed into a 33 KV bus from which different loads are tapped. Starting from the generating

stations to the end users, voltage was needed to be stepped up and down several times in

substations which ensures efficient transmission of power and minimizing the power losses. The

entire load of SEZ-II area which is around 55MW is catered through 132/33 kV substation and by

single 63 MVA transformer.

Construction of 132/33 kV sub-station instead of constructing a 220 kV sub-station, was a major

decision taken by MPIDC to achieve cost optimization and not burdening the consumers with

additional costs.

3. Requirement of an additional 63 MVA

Transformer in SEZ-II

Special Economic Zone (SEZ) is an area in which business and trade laws are different from the

rest of the country. SEZs main aim is to increase trade balance, investment, and effective

administration in the area. Following a similar objective, MPIDC has recently developed the hilly

(elevated) area available inside the SEZ-II premises which is attributable to more industrial

consumers being added in SEZ-II area, with which the power requirement is expected to increase

exponentially and reach ~70 MW.

As per the regulations “The Conditions of Distribution License for Distribution Licensee, 2004”

issued by Hon’ble Commission it is stated that,

“9.9 …….The Licensee shall submit a 5-year Business Plan within three months from the date of

effectiveness of the Transfer Scheme and updated annually which should contain year wise load growth,

…year wise distribution loss reduction proposal…….”

“21..2 ……The Licensee shall plan and operate its Distribution System to ensure that, subject to the

availability of adequate power of appropriate quality, the system is capable of providing consumers

with a safe, reliable and efficient supply of electricity…….

It is observed that the load of SEZ-II has been increased to 55 MW in Oct-20 along with an increase

in number of consumers to 50. Further, considering the expansion planned for undeveloped area,

i.e., hilly area, inside SEZ-II, the estimated load will reach ~70 MW, which will further impact the

loading levels of transformer and supply redundancy.

As the SEZ area is occupied by the industrial consumers for which continuous, reliable, and

efficient supply of electricity is the foremost requirement, therefore it becomes the prime objective

of MPIDC, being a distribution licensee, to fulfill the requirements of the industrial consumers

and provide low-priced, uninterrupted, and quality power.

Generally, the optimum loading levels of transformer are considered at 80% - 85% and loading of

transformer beyond such levels may harm the transformer winding, insulation level and their

efficiency in the long run. As per the present scenario the current transformer loading in SEZ-II

area has been observed at ~80-85% in recent months and is further expected to increase with

increase in the number of consumers in the newly developed area by MPIDC, which could impact

the transformer efficiency levels with increase in Iron loss, Hysteresis loss, Copper loss, Eddy

Current Loss etc., further impacting the life of transformer, and power quality for the consumers.

With the increase of consumers inside SEZ area, the connected load in SEZ-II has increased from

45 MVA to 54.66 MVA from Apr -18 to Oct-20.

Due to increase in load growth inside the SEZ area, and increase in loading on the transformer,

the distribution losses have also increased. This increase in losses for the past few months is

graphically presented below:

As per the regulations “The Conditions of distribution license for distribution licensee, 2004”

issued by Hon’ble Commission it is also stated that,

10.3…..The Licensee shall make an application to the Commission for obtaining prior approval of the

Commission for schemes involving investments………….

a. ……there is a need for the investment in the Distribution System b. …the Licensee has examined the economic, technical, system and environmental aspects of all

viable alternatives to the proposal…….

Considering the aforesaid regulation and examining the technical requirement with respect to

load growth inside the SEZ-II area, it is imperative on account of MPIDC to install a new

additional transformer of 63 MVA inside the 132/33kV substation to maintain the load balance

inside SEZ and to supply reliable, efficient, and quality power to its consumers.

A small study for impact of overloading of transformers is provided below for reference:

The power transformer is one of the most

expensive components in an electrical

transmission and distribution network. The

temperature inside a power transformer

varies with the load. When load is increased

the windings heat up and then cool down

again when it is decreased. In our case, due

to presence of Industrial consumers, the

load may not come down for some days. So,

it may burst when either the load is

extremely high for a short period or high

loading over a long period of time. In short,

overloading reduces the life of a transformer. Higher current in transformer windings, increases

copper loss in transformer which dissipate energy in the form of heat. This may cause transformer

to exceed its safe temperature limits if transformer is overloaded beyond its design limits.

Overloading is still the most common reason for transformer failure in India. In some utilities,

the annual failure rate for transformers is as high as 20 percent and above.

4. Proposal by MPIDC

MPIDC started its power supply business in SEZ area as a distribution licensee from 13.03.2005,

with only four (4) consumers in its area which increased substantially as the years passed with 50

consumers as if now. For supporting growth in industrialization, MPIDC has always ensured to

provide good quality of supply to industrial consumers, with minimum losses, with minimum

tripping as well as MPIDC always operates as per the regulations issued by Hon’ble Commission.

As mentioned in previous sections, due to increase in number of consumers in the newly built-

up area, sales and connected load in the SEZ-II area has increased along with that the loading

levels on transformer has increased and reached to a level of 80-85%, which is expected to increase

further with anticipated increase in load. Considering the same and with an objective to maintain

supply redundancy as per the MPERC regulation (The Conditions of distribution license for

distribution licensee (including deemed licensee), 2004, it is proposed to install an additional 63

MVA transformer in 132/33 kV sub-station switchyard. The bays for the proposed installation

are already available in sub-station.

Benefits of an additional transformer

Stabilize the loading levels on power transformer.

During maintenance work, load may be transferred to one of the transformers and another

can be repaired/serviced hassle free, which will ultimately benefit in supplying

uninterrupted power to Industries.

It will enable MPIDC to bifurcate loads among two transformers which will lower the risk

of transformer failure.

Reduction of electricity losses in electrical transformers.

Improving the power quality due to stable level of short circuit current in the network.

Load of SEZ-II area is expected to reach more than 70 MW and considering the aforesaid scenario

additional 63 MVA transformer can cater an additional load of 45.36 MW, considering power

factor of 0.9 and load factor of 0.8. This will assist MPIDC to cater load of more than 70 MW, by

balancing total load on both the transformer resulting in higher efficiency and lesser losses.

During any technical fault or preventive maintenance period, the additional transformer of 63

MVA will act as backup/stand-by transformer help in balancing the entire load of SEZ-II area,

which will further assist MPIDC in uninterrupted power flow to the industries.

Considering this scenario additional 63 MVA transformer will be an appropriate option to cater

the continuous increasing load and maintain consumer satisfaction.

5. Estimated Cost Break up of 63 MVA transformer

At present, load on single Transformer having capacity of 63 MVA has increased around 50 MVA

(in Oct 2020), due to growth in the connected number of industries. In view to meet the load

growth and maintain network redundancy, it becomes necessity to install additional 63 MVA

transformer in 132/33 kV switchyard. The present infrastructure inside the substation also

supports addition of another transformer as it has sufficient land space and bays.

For the installation of new 63 MVA transformer in 132/33 kV sub-station switchyard at SEZ-II,

the estimated cost break-up amounting to Rs. 886.74 lacs is as mentioned below:

6. Cost benefit analysis

As inferred from the previous sections of this report, another 63 MVA transformer is proposed to

be installed in the SEZ – II premises, along with its estimated cost break up.

Further in this section, payback period for additional 63 MVA transformer has also been

computed on certain assumptions. As could be inferred from above, equity to be infused by

MPIDC is ~Rs. 8.87 Crs. for installing the above said transformer.

In this section, a comprehensive cost benefit analysis is presented for the expenditure to be

incurred for the installation of 63 MVA transformer in the existing 132/33 kV sub-station switch

yard. Also, for the purpose of capital budgeting techniques, financial estimations consisting of

NPV, IRR and payback period has been computed for the entire project cost in the next section.

For computations, certain assumptions have been considered which are as below:

6.1 Base Assumptions

a. Power purchase cost for FY 20-21 to FY 44-45 is assumed to increase at a rate of 2% p.a.

b. Transmission charges for FY 20-21 to FY 44-45 is assumed to increase at a rate of 2% p.a.

c. The Annual R&M expenses are assumed to be constant as Rs. 0.4224 Cr p.a. (@5% of

opening GFA, i.e., Rs. 8.45 Cr).

d. Annual Depreciation amount for first 17 years of project' life is considered as Rs. 0.22308 Cr. p.a. (@5.28% of Rs. 4.225 Cr.) and Rs. 0.05408 Cr. p.a. for the remaining years of project life (considering Straight Line Method).

e. Transmission losses are assumed as constant at a rate of 2.71% for FY 20-21 to FY 44-45. f. Energy purchase & sales are assumed to increase by 6 MW every year till total Energy

Sales reaches corresponding to a load of 72MW. g. During FY 19-20 distribution losses were 1.8% and it will further reduce gradually

depending upon increase in load. As per assumptions total Energy Sales will increase by

6 MW every year till it reaches 72 MW. Thus, it is assumed with the increase in Energy

Sales, the distribution losses gradually decrease by 0.05% every year till the total loss level

decreases by 0.25% with the increase in total load.

h. Average billing rate has been assumed to increase at a rate of 2.00% p.a. from FY 20-21 to FY 44-45.

6.2 Benefits under setting up new transformer in 132/33 kV sub-station

Increase in Energy Sales: Due to installation of 63 MVA transformer, MPIDC will be able

to draw and sell more power resulting in increased energy sales and additional revenue

generation.

Loss Reduction: As mentioned above, losses are expected to be reduced after the

installation of an additional transformer. For computation, the distribution losses

gradually are assumed to decrease by 0.05% every year till the total loss level reduces by

0.25% with proportional increase in load.

Load management: By installing the additional transformer in 132/33 kV Substation switchyard load can be balanced on the power transformers which will help transformers in preventing internal damages occurred due to overloading which will further reduce the irregular tripping in the SEZ area.

6.3 Revenue generation

The calculation of the payback period has been segregated in two components.

a. Additional revenue generation due to increase in energy sales after the installation of the

63 MVA transformer.

b. Reduction in distribution losses after the installation 63 MVA transformer in the 132/33

kV sub-station.

For computing additional revenue generation and reduction in distribution losses, the following

analysis has been done:

7. Evaluation method for financial Estimations

To evaluate the capital expenditure done towards the installation of 63 MVA additional

transformer, the following capital budgeting techniques are computed in this section:

The above-mentioned budgeting techniques are used on the total investment made, i.e. Grant +

Equity, for the installation of 63 MVA additional transformer.

7.1 NPV Method

Net present value method (also known as discounted cash flow method) is a popular capital

budgeting technique that considers the time value of money. It uses net present value of the

investment project as the base to accept or reject a proposed investment in projects like purchase

of new equipment, purchase of inventory, expansion or addition of existing plant assets and the

installation of new plants etc.Net present value is the difference between the present value of cash

inflows and the present value of cash outflows that occur as a result of undertaking an investment

project. It may be positive, zero or negative. These three possibilities of net present value are

briefly explained below:

NPV for the total project investment for installing up of the additional transformer of 63 MVA

in 132/33 kV sub-station is represented below

Net present value (NPV)

Internal rate of return (IRR)

Payback period (PP)

Positive NPV

•If present value of cash inflows is greater than the present value of the cash outflows, the net present value is said to be positive and the investment proposal is considered to be acceptable

Zero NPV•If present value of cash inflow is equal to present value of cash outflow, the net present value is said to be zero and the investment proposal is considered to be acceptable

Negative NPV•If present value of cash inflow is less than present value of cash outflow, the net present value is said to be negative and the investment proposal is rejected

As we can see from above computation, NPV comes out to be 49.29 Cr. Thus, as per NPV Method

installation of another transformer is preferred.

7.2 IRR Method

Internal rate of return (IRR) is a metric used in capital budgeting to estimate the profitability of

potential investments. Internal rate of return is a discount rate that makes the net present value

(NPV) of all cash flows from a particular project equal to zero.

The higher a project's internal rate of return, the more desirable it is to undertake. IRR is uniform

for investments of varying types and, as such, IRR can be used to rank multiple prospective

projects on a relatively even basis. Assuming the costs of investment are equal among the various

projects, the project with the highest IRR would probably be considered the best and be

undertaken first.

station is represented below:

As we can see from above computation, IRR comes out to be 42.08%. Thus, as per IRR Method

installation of another transformer is preferred.

7.3 Payback Method

Payback period, or “payback method,” refers to the amount of time it takes to recover the cost of

an investment. Simply put, the payback period is the length of time an investment reaches a

break-even point. The desirability of an investment is related to its payback period. Shorter

paybacks mean more attractive investments. The shorter the payback, the more desirable the

investment. Conversely, the longer the payback, the less desirable it is. Investors and managers

can use the payback period to make quick judgments on their investments. The concept of the

payback period is generally used in financial and capital budgeting.

132/33 kV sub-station is represented below:

Considering the investment and benefits involved on addition of another transformer, the

payback period for the investment done will be less than 9 years. Thus, as per payback method

also, installation of new transformer is preferred.

7.4 Conclusion

Considering above mentioned capital budgeting techniques, addition of new transformer is a

viable investment decision w.r.t project economics and technical feasibility. Through NPV, IRR

and Payback method, adding a 63 MVA transformer will result in increased in Energy Sales,

reduced losses, and flexibility for load management during repair or maintenance of the network.
