2. Conference on
Acquisition Opportunities for Power Generation Assets in India
Background
India has the world’s 5th largest electricity generation capacity and it is the 6th largest energy consumer
accounting for 3.4% of global energy consumption. Large numbers of power projects, from the eleventh and
twelfth five year plans, are under construction and commissioning to overcome the power shortages and
meet the growing energy requirements in the country. However, the power sector has been facing number of
challenges on account of inadequate/depleting conventional fuel supplies, growing gap between fuels supply
and demand, costs of imported fuels, project financing and rupee devaluation,, slippages in capacity addition,
transmission/open access constraints, high Aggregate Technical & Commercial (AT & C) losses , unviable
distribution segments due to power pricing,, high cost of land acquisition, lack of experience in awarding global
contracts and delay in granting statutory approvals. While the sector needs some immediate reforms, the same
is taling much longer thus adding to the uncertainty.
The country thus has large number of power projects crippled by a lack of fuel linkages or set back in fuel
linkages, pricing of imported coals or coals sourced from linked overseas mining projects,, problems with
statutory approvals, project financing issues and impacts of rupee depreciation etc. These power projects
aggregating to 30000-40000 MW capacity, blocking investments of over INR 1 Lakh crores are in distress due
to one or multiple causes. These capital assets cannot be left to waste and all options for their completion and
commissioning needs to be examined. This may need policy reforms, regulatory reforms, re negotiations of
contracts, financial rationalization and other measures to bring them on production at the earliest. , Many of
such stranded power plants provide attractive acquisition targets for the industry players who can de-risk such
facilities. Large players like NTPC, JSW Energy, Reliance Power and Tata Power are understood to be evaluating
such opportunities and can leverage their strengths. Analysts are of the opinion that such a strategy could help
these companies add capacity at an attractive and advantageous cost compared to any green field project.
Successful acquisition would also result in capacity addition to total portfolio, early start of generation and thus
the start of revenue streams...
The numerous challenges, that would be faced by the potential acquirers,, would include the issues with the
valuation of distressed power plant, status of project completion, outlook for fuel supplies and pricing, changes
in the policies and regulations in the intervening period, financial restructuring, the condition of the equipments
and their warranties/guarantees, position of OEM’s, status of approvals, contracts and their renegotiations, PPA
and other agreements and their renegotiations, etc., The Conference has been designed and launched with
above mentioned objectives and challenges and would provide a platform to deliberate on key aspects leading
to possible completion and commissioning of this stranded capacity within reasonable time.
