Suryodaya Yojana

 How can Govt overcome these obstacles ?

By incentivizing :

Consumers
By giving 100 % subsidy . Totally FREE installation of 3 Kw Roof Top
Solar

DISCOMS
By fully compensating for loss of revenue + some incentive

Funding Agency ( REC )
By transferring all Carbon Credits earned by 1 crore ( 10 million )
installations
================================
Can your proposal be made more attractive to the Central Government ?

Certainly,

#  Merge Suryodaya Yojana with National Efficient Cooking Program

- announced by Shri Singh , MNRE ( through EESL ) are in the process of distributing 20 lakh 1.5 Kw Induction Electric Stoves

Under my proposal, this number to be raised to 1 crore ( 10 million ) AND those eligible for free RTS , will also get a FREE electric stove
No one else will get that FREE stove

How will this help ?

3 Kw RTS will generate 360 units / month

Out of this, family will use only 80 units for lighting-Fans- Fridge etc, leaving 280 units / month, un-utilized

If this surplus power is fed back to DISCOM, it will earn :

Rs 3 / unit x 280 units = Rs 840 / month

Let us consider alternate scenario as follows :

280 units / month = 9 units / day ( for 30 days )

Now electric stove is 1.5 Kw . If used for 4 hours/day , it will consume only 6 units/day ( 180 units/month )

So, the family will now feed into the GRID ( through Net Metering ), balance 100 units ( 280 – 180 for stove )

And earn Rs 300 / month ( from DISCOM @ Rs 3 / unit ) – instead of Rs 840 / month

BUT ,
Now that family will NOT need any LPG cylinder for cooking

A unsubsidized LPG cylinder could cost Rs 900

A subsidized cylinder costs the poor family , Rs 600 ( after subsidy of Rs 300 / cylinder for 12 cylinders / year )

Hence , by using an Electric Stove (coupled with 3 KW solar panel ), that family will give up Rs 300 subsidy

But , country as a whole , will reduce its LPG import bill by Rs 900 / month / each poor family

Multiplying with 1 crore families works out to Rs 900 crore / month = Rs 10,800 crore / year

And all it takes to save this FOREIGN EXCHANGE is 1 crore Electric stoves , whose purchase price EESL can bring down from Rs 2,000 each to Rs 1,000 each , by MASS PURCHASE

In which case , total purchase cost ( investment ) could be > Rs 1,000 x 1 crore = Rs 1,000 crore

Resulting in a approx. saving of Rs  11,000 crore

Now consider this :

#  Current number of poor families covered under UJWALA scheme  .. 9.6 Crore
#  Revised target for coverage …..10.35 crore

If electric stoves were given to 10 crore UJWALA families , SAVING will be, Rs 1.1 LAKH*CRORE / year

Proposed solar-powered cooker will be entitled to 51.48 carbon
credits per year.

Each Solar Cooker User will earn $ 514.8 / year by way of selling Carbon Credits .

That is approx.. Rs 41,200 ( at $ 1 = Rs 80 )
