Which of the following is/are Correct statements ?
1. There are many reasons for the shortfall in power supply other than
y p pp y
inadequate generation
2.
The Ministry of Power estimates total energy transmission and

distribution losses at 21percent (though unofficial figures place it much
higher).
3. In recent years the financial health of SEBs in India has been
deteriorating. The power generation and distribution is managed by
State Electricity Boards and Power Corporations though the situation
has changed after the Electricity Act, 2003 came into force.
4. The energy as well as peaking shortages across the country are a
matter of concern and the situation would have been worse but for the
slowdown in manufacturing sector.
answer
1. The two main factors which will lead to greatly increased world-wide
demand for energy (especially electricity) during the next half-century
are population growth, and per capita economic growth in the less-
developed countries.
2. Currently, the average person in the less-developed countries
consumes only one sixth of the energy consumed b:r an average
person in Western Europe or Japan.
3. Doubling of per capita energy consumption in the less developed
countries over the next 50 years would correspond to only a very
modest degree of economic development.
4. Yet, combined with the predicted population increase, it would lead to a
two to three-fold increase in world energy consumption. The actual
increase in demand may be expected to be even greater. For example,
there will be an increased demand from economic growth in the
developed as well as developing countries.
5. Improvements will undoubtedly occur in the efficiency of energy
utilisation, but in the face of the expected increases in demand, these
could only have relatively minor impact.
answer
The NAPCC has eight Missions to achieve these principles, two of which are
directly energyrelated: the Jawaharlal Nehru National Solar Mission (JNNSM)
and the National Mission for Enhanced Energy Efficiency (NMEEE). The
JNNSM, implemented by the MNRE, is a supply-side effort aiming to
significantly increase the share of solar energy in the total energy mix. Then,
which of the following are true?
1. The NMEEE, implemented by the Bureau of Energy Efficiency, is based
on demand-side management.
2. It expects that a series of programmes and schemes would result in a
saving of 10 gigawatt (GW) by the end of 11th Plan in 2012.
3. The NMEEE initiatives to enhance energy efficiency include a market-
based mechanism, energy efficient appliances and financial
mechanism to support demand-side management programmes.
4. Other Missions also have indirect implications on energy sector.
5. For instance, the National Mission on Sustainable Habitat aims to
improve energy efficiency in the building sector.
