Some of the reasons for the flux are global phenomena such as reducing RE and storage prices and advances in smart grid infrastructure, while others are specific to the policy and regulatory environment in India such as the move to universal access to electricity, migration of large consumers to open access and captive options, stranded generation capacity and financial situation of distribution companies. These changes have significant implications for generation and transmission capacity planning, regulations and grid operations. However, there is considerable uncertainty in how these changes will pan out over time since a lot of factors that affect these changes are beyond the control of system planners. In this context, appropriately set up power sector models provide significant insights that can help formulate better strategies and make more informed decisions. We describe a production cost simulation model for the state of Maha...
