IMPORTED, LOCAL COAL TO BE MIXED IN POWER DRIVE


The government is likely to create a pool price of coal, wherein imported coal and Indian coal could be mixed, making the imported coal becomes more affordable for use in power projects. Once implemented, the move would benefit competitively bid private sector power projects where cost of imported coal is not fully reflected in the electricity tariff.

The price differential between domestic and imported coal varies from 50% to 75% level depending on the distance transported. While the landed cost of good quality domestic thermal coal ranges between Rs 3,000 to Rs 4,000 (US$ 65.99 - 87.98) per tonne for travel distance between 100-1500 kilometres, the price of imported coal (Indonesia) varies between Rs 4000-5250 (US$ 87.98 - 115.48) per tonne.

“A policy on pool price of coal is being considered to prevent discrimination against projects using high level of imported coal in a volatile market situation,” an official in the coal ministry said requesting anonymity.

The Planning Commission in its policy prescription for power sector has also favoured price pooling of coal to prevent under priced domestic coal from affecting use of imported coal. The present system has also resulted in higher demand for domestic coal that is affecting fuel supply to several power projects.

Under current system of coal linkage power projects normally get assured linkage of 80-85% of the coal requirement from the domestic market. Remaining coal has to be imported for meeting the full requirement of a power project. (1 USD = 45.4600 INR). To read more EconomicTimes
