Grid Connectivity. (a) The project should get connected with the Power Substation or Grid Substation of Discom / STU. The responsibility of getting connectivity with the transmission system will lie with the IPP. The IPP shall be required to obtain an “in-principle” approval from the Discom / STU (as the case may be) regarding the proposed evacuation arrangement that is to be constructed by the IPP. (b) The projects should be connected with the Power Substation (Distribution Network) / Grid Substation (Transmission Network) as per the relevant regulations of the Central Electricity Authority. The IPP may use the existing substation or inject into the distribution network for better utilization of the available infrastructure. The IPP shall first explore the possibility of connecting to the Power Substation and only in case of its inability to connect to the Power Substation due to any constraint it may consider the option of injecting power into Grid Substation. (c) The requisite arrangement for the evacuation of the power from the generation plant to the allocated Interconnection Substation shall be developed by the IPP. The Government of Jharkhand shall reimburse the cost of such construction of power evacuation facilities from the project’s generator switchyard to the interconnection point (injection point), up to a maximum length of 10 kms at the rates determined by JUSNL/JBVNL and such reimbursement shall not be considered for determination of tariff by both the parties. The cost of evacuation infrastructure beyond a distance of 10 kms, shall be borne by the IPP.
