Electricity transmission is an important process for the functioning of households, industries and the entire nation in totality. Many times, due to a lack of appropriate infrastructure and development, electricity losses are incurred in the transmission process. Furthermore, the country has always faced the need for robust infrastructure needed to meet the electricity demands of the country.
To address all these concerns, the government of India introduced the Integrated Power Development Scheme. Let us delve into the details of this scheme.
What Is The Integrated Power Development Scheme?
The Integrated Power Development Scheme (IDPS) is a government scheme aimed at addressing concerns related to power and electric supply. The scheme was launched on December 3, 2014, as a flagship initiative by the Ministry of Power under the Government of India.
The main motive of the scheme is to improve and develop sub-transmission and distribution networks in urban areas, in turn reducing electricity losses due to transmission and enhancing the reliability of transmission systems. The Power Finance Commission is the nodal agency for this govt scheme. It coordinates with state governments and Discoms and ensures effective execution.
The central government scheme provides multiple incentives to its stakeholders. Let us have a look at them!
