Memo No. 1778/1918 /SO/PRC/LD-38 Dated 31.5.10

Subject: PR Circular 9/2007 - Levy of Peak Load Exemption Charges and imposition of

weekly off day restrictions – Amendment Thereof

All Large Supply Consumers except Essential Services (such as Hospitals, Railway

Stations, Railway Installations, Defence & Military Installations, All India Radio/T.V.,

Water Supply & Sewerage Installations, P&T Installations and News Service

Installations etc.) are required to observe Evening Peak Load Hours restrictions. As

per P.R. Circular No. 9/2007, exemptions from observing Peak Load Restrictions

are being allowed as per their request, to Large Supply consumers against payment

of Peak Load Exemption Charges as fixed by the Board in addition to normal tariff.

A peak load policy was prepared and submitted to Hon ‘able Punjab State

Electricity Regulatory Commission for approval. As per approval of PSERC, it is

decided to amend PR Circular 9/2007 as under:

1 Dy CEs/SE/DS will allow PLE up to 100 KW (instead of 100 KW).

2 Peak Load Exemption charges will remain unchanged and will be applicable.

3 Peak Load Exemption above 100 KW will be issued by the office of Engineer-in-

Chief /Commercial.

4 The condition to avail PLE for minimum 6 months in first instance and for minimum 3

months in subsequent instance has been substituted with one month. Now the

industrial consumers will be allowed to increase/decrease/withdraw peak load

exemption after one month of its grant whether in first or in subsequent instance.

5 Peak load exemption issued to consumers up to 31.5.10 will not be extended further

in paddy season except for following categories of consumers:

Categories of consumers entitled to PLH exemptions:

(a) Information Technology based industries. (b) Essential industries i.e Fertilizer Plants (except N.F.L. Bathinda and N.F.L. Nangal

(New), Gas Plants, Sugar Mills, Vanspati Mills, Milk Plants, Milk processing Plants,

Malt processing plants, Breweries & Distilleries, Roller Floor mills, Railway

workshops, oil Depots/L.P.G. Depots, Drugs & Pharmaceuticals Units, Environment

Treatment Plants (E.T.P Plants )/ Pollution Control Equipment. and other exempted

categories such as cold storages, ice factories, ice candy plants, slaughter houses,

poultry farms and exclusively bread manufacturing units.

(c) Central sectors PSUs i.e NFLs, Railway workshops, Punjab Govt. Sponsored projects such as PACL & SIEL and cement manufacturers obtaining fly ash from the thermal plants of Powercom.

(d) Continuous process industries declared as such by the competent authority designated by Powercom.

(e) There will be no curtailment in Peak load exemption or extension in peak load hour restrictions in case of consumers at sr no.5(a) to 5(d) above.

6 Applications of consumers not falling in the essential industries and exempted categories enumerated above but seeking exemptions from PLH restrictions will be dealt with as below:

i) First preference will be given to the consumers who had regularly obtained PL exemptions in the previous years. In case adequate power to accommodate all such exemptees is not likely to be available, then the permissible load in the case of all exemptees will be reduced on pro- rata basis.

ii) If power availability makes it possible to accommodate more consumers, then Powercom will, one month before it proposes to grant PLEs, seek applications from intending consumers and further PLH exemption, will be granted on first come first served basis.

7 The consumers who are running their TG/DG sets with synchronization of PSPCL system will continue to get PLE on day to day basis in case of breakdown of their TG/DG sets subject to availability of power on real time basis. The consumer who have been allowed to use some load during peak

load hour restrictions against the payment of Peak Load Exemption Charges,

will not use this load (except continuous process/essential industry and other

exempted industry to which exemption from observing weekly off days is

allowed) during weekly off days and nor the payment of Peak Load Exemption

Charges will be charged to them.

8 It is once again reiterated that the peak load exemption allowed to any consumer will not entitle him to claim it as a matter of right since peak load exemption can be withdrawn by the PSPCL completely/partially keeping in view the system constraints/power availability during peak load exemption period.

9 The other terms and conditions on the subject including penalty for violation remains unchanged.
