Types of Tariff and Revenues.––The Jammu and Kashmir

for generation and distribution of electricity in a rural area to be notified by

the Government.

–––––––—–––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––———

10.1

Costs, Revenues and Pricing Mechanism.––The cost

structure of Mini -Grid Project and tariff has to be market driven and is to

be mutually agreed by the Consumer and Mini Grid Operator. It will have

the following elements :––

(a) Fixed costs include cost of project development, generation plant,

storage systems (batteries), inverters, distribution network, cost

of availing debt including interest charges, fixed taxes and fees.

Further fixed cost may also include management cost, overhead

and transaction costs.

(b) Variable costs is the running charges for operation, maintenance

and management as under–––

(i) Operating cost include charges for operating the plant,

billing and collecting money from consumers, maintenance

and cleaning, guarding the plant, fixed technical losses like

self consumption of inverters, storage devices, and losses

in transformers etc ;

(ii) Customer relationship costs are allocated to resolve

customer grievances etc.

10.2

Revenue Sources.––Long term sustainable operation will

require that the Mini-Grid Projects recover fixed and variable costs and the

Mini-Grid Operators are able to earn a reasonable return on investment.

The possible revenue resources for mini grids are fee for connections, sale

of electricity, and through grants/subsidies if applicable. As most

communities in rural areas are very sensitive to price strategies for ensuring

affordability of the service, certain possible strategies are given below :––

(a) Aligning Demand with Supply : Accurately assess demand

of varied type of consumers and match it with supply

The J&K Govt. Gazette, 19th Dec., 2016/28th Agra., 1938.

[No. 37-2

––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––—–––—————

efficiently. This will help lower the tariffs, stabilize the revenue

flow and ensure project viability.

(b) Setting Tariff for Sale of Electricity : Tariff should maintain

a balance between financial viability and rural household’s

ability and willingness to pay. Two categories are–––

(i)

Energy tariffs or pay-as-you-go model depends on actual
