POWER

The State Government is committed to provide adequate and quality power to the industry.  Today, Haryana’s total available installed generation capacity is 4033.3 MW, which was just 343 MW at the time of its inception. The State Government has proposed to add over 3000 MW power generation capacity during 10th and 11th Five Year Plan.  This includes Yamuna Nagar Thermal Project  (600 MW coal based and 500 MW  gas based)  and gas based Hissar Thermal Power Project ( 500 MW). In addition Haryana would also get a share of 704 MW power from Central Sector projects Koldam, Kahalgaon, North Karanpura and Harb Project of NTPC and various Hydro Projects taken up by NHPC in J&K and Himachal, which would be commissioned during 10th and 11th Plan. Haryana has also entered in to long term PPA with NEEPCO for getting power from Tripura Gas Project and Kameng Hydro-electric Project in Arunachal Pradesh. Haryana is also negotiating power on long terms basis from projects like, Dhamwari Sunda Hydro-Electric Project (HP), Baspa Stage-II, Karcvham Wangtoo (100 MW) and other projects coming up in the Region.

Special efforts have been made to increase the Plant Load Factor (PLF) for the existing power station by way of taking up measures on renovation and modernization as well as adopting good maintenance practices to improve generation and efficiency.

A massive investment is being made towards rehabilitation and expansion of the power transmission and distribution system.

Various provisions in the Electricity Act 2003 on free generation, open access and third party sale of electricity, regulations by regulatory authority would also further boost the power sector in the State in the near future.

PRIVATE SECTOR PARTICIPATION IN POWER SECTOR

The state Government shall facilitate private sector investment in generation, transmission and distribution of power. Efforts will be made to set up dedicated power generation and distribution exclusively for IMTs, SEZs and large industrial areas in private or joint sector to provide uninterrupted and quality power.

Private sector investment in power generation shall be treated at par with industrial units for the purposes of this policy.

TRANSPORT
The State Government would give top priority to surface transport and connectivity with Inland Container Depots and Express Highways. The State has already conceived one mega project for the construction of Kundli–Manesar-Palwal Expressway. The other projects in the pipeline are Badarpur fly-over between Delhi and Faridabad, the Panipat flyover, Elevated highways between Gurgaon-Delhi, and Bahadurgarh-Delhi. The State Government has a massive programme for upgradation of roads, construction of ROBs on BOT basis including four lane ROBs.

Steps shall be taken to encourage development of Mass Transit Systems through public or private investment in NCR region. Extension of Delhi Metro Rail to Gurgaon and Manesar and its connectivity to Bahadurgarh, Sonepat and Faridabad shall also be taken up.

NATURAL GAS DISTRIBUTION

The demand for Natural Gas being eco-friendly and energy efficient is likely to grow given the inherent advantages of the fuel.  Realising the importance of Gas as source of energy, the State Government as a matter of policy is encouraging pipelining and distribution of CNG/PNG in the Transport and Domestic Sector. Efforts are being made to spread the use of natural gas in the industrial, commercial and power sector. Investment by public and private sector in the gas distribution shall be encouraged and facilitated.

It is proposed to develop a world class Education City to be named as Rajiv Gandhi Education City providing opportunities to educational and research institutes to come up in the state. A Medicity housing state of art healthcare institutes and super speciality hospitals will also be set up.

Haryana has been a leader in development of tourism. It is proposed to develop destination tourism and entertainment parks.

TRADE EXHIBITION AND CONVENTION CENTRES

The State government would endeavour to set up International Trade Centres to promote trade and commerce. Financial services and facilities like banking, investment centres, merchant banking show casing products and trade meets would be encouraged to boost trade and business. International trade-cum-convention centres for readymade garments at Gurgaon and Handloom products at Panipat would be set up. A state of the art Exhibition and Convention Centre will be set up at Faridabad on the pattern of Pragati Maidan.

An Exhibition Portal would be developed and launched to facilitate trade between the buyers all across the world and sellers from Haryana, The portal will offer various kinds of services online like promoting brand, creating product catalogues, legal services, buy/sell exchange, etc.
