Case Study #1: Power Sector Reforms

Technology

Investment

Finance

Governance

Outcomes:

24 x 7, three phasepower to ALL homesin Gujarat

Power surplus:support deficit states+ generate revenue

Canal top solarpanels :1km stretch 1MW energy, 16%more efficiency, 6acres land saved, 9Mil Lt water saved

Stable financialhealth of companiesin the powerbusiness, across thevalue chain

Smart metering of usage

Parallel transmission system via feedersegregation (farm, household, industry)

Modernization of Transmission & Distributioninfrastructure

Turnaround of Guj. State Electricity Board($450M loss in 2001 $105M profit in 2011)

100,000+ FIRs and special police stations totackle power-theft

Transmission & distribution losses: 35% 20%

Alternative

sources

Pioneering steps in solar energy (690MW plant,2/3rds of nat. production); panels over canals;aggressive plans going forward (2.2GW)

Tapping 2,500MW wind power offshore

Power situation in Gujarat was no better than other states in 2001 rampant power theft, high distribution losses, frequent power cuts etc were the norm

Case Study #2: Agriculture & Water

Public

participation

Water grid

Integrated

approach

Outcomes:

Unprecedentedagricultural growthand step-change infarm incomes in adecade

Only state whosegroundwater tablehas risen

Drinking waterdependence (75%ground 85%surface water)

These stepscushioned the effectof drought last yearsignificantly

Massive water harvesting & conservation

campaign (650,000 water mgmt structures) 14,000 water committees for drinking water

distribution & management UN Award

Drip & Sprinkler irrigation adopted across~450,000 hectares of cultivation

1,900 km of bulk pipelines, 100,000 km of

distribution pipelines with filtration plantscovering 10K villages (tap water: 4% HH 75%)

Prudent electricity distribution, watermanagement, comprehensive farmer education,financing and modernization of farm inputs

Computerization of all land records (e-Dhara)

Soil health cards to analyze the texture,

composition and best-usage of soil

Agri-fest Proactive engagement between scientists &

farmers on farm tech/inputs [Krishi Mahotsav]
