INDUSTRY PROFILE
Electricity is the most versatile energy source that we have; it is also one of the
newest: homes and businesses have been using it for not much more than a
hundred years. Electricity has played a vital part of our past. But it could play a
different role in our future, with many more buildings generating their own
renewable electric power using solar cells and wind turbines. Let's take a closer
look at electricity and find out how it works.
Electricity is a type of energy that can build up in one place or flow from one place
to another. When electricity gathers in one place it is known as static electricity
(the word static means something that does not move); electricity that moves from
one place to another is called current electricity.
Despite its great importance in our daily lives, most of us rarely stop to think what
life would be like without electricity. Yet like air and water, we tend to take
electricity for granted. Every day, we use electricity to do many jobs for us from
lighting and heating/cooling our homes, to powering our televisions and
computers. Electricity is a controllable and convenient form of energy used in the
applications of heat, light and power.
Electricity Industrial Profile
The electricity in India is predominantly controlled by the Government of
India's public sector undertakings (PSUs). Major PSUs involved in the generation
of electricity include National Thermal Power Corporation (NTPC), National
Hydroelectric Power Corporation (NHPC) and Nuclear Power Corporation of
India (NPCI). Besides PSUs, several state-level corporations, such as Maharashtra
State Electricity Board (MSEB), are also involved in the generation and intra-state
Sambhram Academy of Management Studies, Bangalore 10

distribution of electricity. The Power Grid Corporation of India is responsible for
the inter-state transmission of electricity and the development of national grid.
The Ministry of Power is the apex body responsible for the development of
electrical energy in India. This ministry started functioning independently from 2
July 1992; earlier, it was known as the Ministry of Energy. The Union Minister of
Power at present is Sushilkumar Shinde of the Congress Party, who took charge of
the ministry on the 28th of May, 2009.
India is world's 6th largest energy consumer, accounting for 3.4% of global energy
consumption. Due to India's economic rise, the demand for energy has grown at an
average of 3.6% per annum over the past 30 years. In March 2011, the installed
power generation capacity of India stood at 1, 73,626 MW while the per capital
energy consumption stood at 612 kWh. The country's annual energy production
increased from about 190 billion kWh in 1986 to more than 680 billion kWh in
2006. The total demand for electricity in India is expected to cross 950,000 MW by
2030.
About 75% of the electricity consumed in India is generated by thermal power
plants, 21% by hydroelectric power plants and 4% by nuclear power plants. More
than 50% of India’s commercial energy demand is met through the country's
vast coal reserves. The country has also invested heavily in recent years on
renewable sources of energy such as wind energy. As of 2008, India's installed
wind power generation capacity stood at 9,655 MW. Additionally, India has
committed massive amount of funds for the construction of various nuclear
reactors which would generate at least 30,000 MW. In July 2009, India unveiled a
$19 billion plan to produce 20,000 MW of solar power by 2020.
Electricity losses in India during transmission and distribution are extremely
high and vary between 30 to 45%. In 2004-05, electricity demand outstripped
Sambhram Academy of Management Studies, Bangalore 11
Organization Study Conducted at NTPC, Korba
supply by 7-11%. Due to shortage of electricity, power cuts are common
throughout India and this has adversely effected the country's economic
growth. Theft of electricity, common in most parts of urban India, amounts to 1.5%
of India's GDP. Despite an ambitious rural electrification program, some 400
million Indians lose electricity access during blackouts. While 80 percent of Indian
villages have at least an electricity line, just 44 percent of rural households have
access to electricity. According to a sample of 97,882 households in 2002,
electricity was the main source of lighting for 53% of rural households compared
to 36% in 1993.Multi Commodity Exchange has sought permission to offer
electricity future markets.
GENERATION
Grand Total Installed Capacity is 1, 73,626 MW.
Thermal Power
Current installed capacity of Thermal Power (as of 06/2011) is 114315.35
MW which is 65.84% of total installed capacity.
Current installed base of Coal Based Thermal Power is 96710.78 MW which
comes to 84.6% of total installed base.
Current installed base of Gas Based Thermal Power is 16632.88 MW which is
14.55% of total installed base.
Current installed base of Oil Based Thermal Power is 971.68 MW which is
0.85% of total installed base.
The state of Maharashtra is the largest producer of thermal power in the country.
Sambhram Academy of Management Studies, Bangalore 12
Organization Study Conducted at NTPC, Korba
Hydro Power
India was one of the pioneering countries in establishing hydro-electric
power plants. The power plant at Darjeeling and Shimsha (Shivanasamudra) was
established in 1898 and 1902 respectively and is one of the first in Asia. The
installed capacity as of 2011 was approximately 33874.43. The public sector has a
predominant share of 19.51% in this sector.
Nuclear Power
Currently, 17 nuclear power reactors produce 4149.66 MW (2.39% of total
installed base).
Renewable Power
Current installed base of Renewable energy is 21286.54 MW which is 12.26% of
total installed base with the southern state of Tamil Nadu contributing nearly a
third of it (5008.26 MW) largely through wind power.
Transmission
Transmission of electricity is defined as bulk transfer of power over a long distance
at high voltage, generally of 132kV and above. In India bulk transmission has
increased from 3,708ckm in 1950 to more than 165,000ckm today (as stated by
Power Grid Corporation of India). The entire country has been divided into five
regions for transmission systems, namely, Northern Region, North Eastern Region,
Eastern Region, Southern Region and Western Region. The Interconnected
transmission system within each region is also called the regional grid.
The transmission system planning in the country, in the past, had traditionally been
linked to generation projects as part of the evacuation system. Ability of the power
system to safely withstand a contingency without generation rescheduling or load-
Sambhram Academy of Management Studies, Bangalore 13
Organization Study Conducted at NTPC, Korba
shedding was the main criteria for planning the transmission system. However, due
to various reasons such as spatial development of load in the network, non-
commissioning of load centre generating units originally planned and deficit in
reactive compensation, certain pockets in the power system could not safely
operate even under normal conditions. This had necessitated backing down of
generation and operating at a lower load generation balance in the past.
Transmission planning has therefore moved away from the earlier generation
evacuation system planning to integrate system planning.
While the predominant technology for electricity transmission and distribution has
been Alternating Current (AC) technology, High Voltage Direct Current (HVDC)
technology has also been used for interconnection of all regional grids across the
country and for bulk transmission of power over long distances.
Certain provisions in the Electricity Act 2003 such as open access to the
transmission and distribution network, recognition of power trading as a distinct
activity, the liberal definition of a captive generating plant and provision for supply
in rural areas are expected to introduce and encourage competition in the electricity
sector. It is expected that all the above measures on the generation, transmission
and distribution front would result in formation of a robust electricity grid in the
country.

Year of Establishment: 1983
Korba the ‘Power City’ of Chhattisgarh is endowed with natural resources
such as coal and bauxite. Being rich in coal, Korba was chosen for setting up of
pithead power plants. In early stages, two power plants of MPEB (Now CSEB)
were installed in the vicinity of Korba city. Thereafter in January 1978 NTPC got
clearance from the government to set up Thermal Power Plant of 2100 MW
Capacity at Korba.
In tune with the need for massive capacity addition in the changing scenario, 500
MW Unit was commenced operation in mid – 2010 and the installation cost would
be Rs 2,448.49 crore. Now Korba will added another feather in its cap by having
the first Merchant Power plant of NTPC and will thus help the company in taking
one more step in its Mission 2017.
In present day scenario, only the most economical, Qualitative and efficient
power generating station will meet the requirement of survival of the fittest. Korba
Super Thermal Power Station is constantly raising the bar of efficient and
economical power generation for excellence.
Sambhram Academy of Management Studies, Bangalore 17
Organization Study Conducted at NTPC, Korba
Despite over 25 years, NTPC Korba achieves over 97% PLF and is thus
treated as one of the best stations when we talk about Power Generation in India
today. Meritorious Performance Awards of twenty times in the last 28 years is a
testimony to the fact that this project has created a niche in the domain of
Operation and Maintenance of thermal power stations. The station has in fact set a
benchmark in producing power at the lowest cost.

PRODUCT PROFILE
What is electricity?
Electricity is a type of energy that can build up in one place or flow from one place
to another. When electricity gathers in one place it is known as static electricity
(the word static means something that does not move); electricity that moves from
one place to another is called current electricity.
Generating electricity
Just as electricity can make magnetism, so magnetism can make electricity. A
bicycle dynamo is a bit like an electric motor inside. When you pedal your bicycle,
the dynamo clipped to the wheel spins around. Inside the dynamo, there is a heavy
core made from iron wire wrapped tightly around—much like the inside of a
motor. The core spins freely inside some large fixed magnets. As you pedal, the
core rotates inside these outer magnets and generates electricity. The electricity
flows out from the dynamo and powers your bicycle lamp.
The electric generators used in power plants work in exactly the same way, only on
a much bigger scale. Instead of being powered by someone's legs, pedalling
furiously, these large generators are driven by steam. The steam is made by
burning fuels or by nuclear reactions. Power plants can make enormous amounts of
electricity, but they waste quite a lot of the energy they produce. The energy has to
flow from the plant, where it is made, to the homes, offices, and factories where it
Sambhram Academy of Management Studies, Bangalore 36
Organization Study Conducted at NTPC, Korba
is used down many miles of electric power cable. Delivering electricity this way
can waste up to two thirds of the power originally produced.
How does electricity get from a power plant to your home?
The heart of a power station is a large generator that extracts energy from a fuel.
Some power stations burn fossil fuels such as coal, oil, or gas. The heat produced
is used to turn water into steam at high pressure. This steam turns a windmill-like
device called a turbine connected to an electricity generator. Extracting heat from a
fuel takes place over a number of stages and some energy is wasted at each stage.
Fig – 1.2 Steps to Generate Electricity
1. Fuel: The energy that finds its way into your TV, computer, or toaster starts
Sambhram Academy of Management Studies, Bangalore 37
Organization Study Conducted at NTPC, Korba
1. Fuel: The energy that finds its way into your TV, computer, or toaster starts
off as fuel loaded into a power plant. Some power plants run on coal, while
others use oil, natural gas, or methane gas from decomposing rubbish.
2. Furnace: The fuel is burned in a giant furnace to release heat energy.
3. Boiler: In the boiler, heat from the furnace flows around pipes full of cold
water. The heat boils the water and turns it into steam.
4. Turbine: The steam flows at high-pressure around a wheel that's a bit like a
windmill made of tightly packed metal blades. The blades start turning as
the steam flows past. Known as a steam turbine, this device is designed to
convert the steam's energy into kinetic energy (movement). For the turbine
to work efficiently, heat must enter it at a really high temperature and
pressure and leave at as low a temperature and pressure as possible.
5. Cooling tower: The giant, jug-shaped cooling towers you see at old power
plants make the turbine more efficient. Boiling hot water from the steam
turbine is cooled in a heat exchanger called a condenser. Then it's sprayed
into the giant cooling towers and pumped back for reuse. Most of the water
condenses on the walls of the towers and drips back down again. Only a tiny
amount of the water used escapes as steam from the towers themselves, but
huge amounts of heat and energy are lost.
6. Generator: The turbine is linked by an axle to a generator, so the generator
spins around with the turbine blades. As it spins, the generator uses the
kinetic energy from the turbine to make electricity.
7. Electricity cables: The electricity travels out of the generator to a
transformer nearby.
Sambhram Academy of Management Studies, Bangalore 38
Organization Study Conducted at NTPC, Korba
8. Step-up transformer: Electricity loses some of its energy as it travels down
wire cables, but high-voltage electricity loses less energy than low-voltage
electricity. So the electricity generated in the plant is stepped-up (boosted) to
a very high voltage as it leaves the power plant.
9. Pylons: Hugh metal towers carry electricity at extremely high voltages,
along overhead cables, to wherever it is needed.
10.Step-down transformer: Once the electricity reaches its destination,
another transformer converts the electricity back to a lower voltage safe for
homes to use.
11.Homes: Electricity flows into homes through underground cables.
12.Appliances: Electricity flows all round your home to outlets on the wall.
When you plug in a television or other appliance, it could be making a very
indirect connection to a piece of coal hundreds of miles away

7S MODEL
The 7-S-Model is better known as Mc Kinsey 7-S. this is because the two persons
who developed their model, Tom Peters and Robert Watermen, have been
consultants at McKinsey & Co at that time. They published their 7-S-Model in
their critical “Structure is Not Organization” (1980) and their books. “The Art of
Japanese Management (1981) and In Search of Excellence (1981)”. The model
starts on the premise that an organization is not just Structure, but consists of seven
elements.
Those seven are distinguished in so called hard S’s and soft S’s. The hard elements
are feasible and easy to identify. They can be found in strategy statements,
corporate plans, organizational charts and other documentations.
The four soft S’s however, are hardly feasible. They are difficult to describe since
capabilities, values and elements of corporate culture are continuously developing
and changing. They are highly determined by the people at work in the
Sambhram Academy of Management Studies, Bangalore 73
Organization Study Conducted at NTPC, Korba
organization. They are highly determined by the people at work in the
organization. Therefore it is much more difficult to plan or to influence
characteristics of the soft element. Although the soft factors below the surface,
they can have great impact of the hard and structure, strategies and systems of the
organization.
Style
All organization has their own distinct culture and management style. It includes
the dominant values, beliefs and norms which develop over time and become
relatively enduring features of the organizational life. It also entails the way
managers interact with the employees and the way they spend their time. Culture
style of the organization shows how key managers behave in achieving the
organization’s goals. The style of the organization is through leadership in which
leaders can establish unity of purpose and direction of the organization. They
create and maintain the internal environment in which people are fully involved in
achieving the organization goals.
In NTPC there is a Democratic style of leadership with centralization of authority
and responsibility to the divisions. The employees have been empowered to do
their work independently without pressures from their higher authority. They have
the ability to achieve their goals. The participation of workers in management is
considered vital in NTPC.
Staff
Organizations are made up of humans and it’s the people who make the real
difference to the success of the organization in the increasingly knowledge-based
society. The importance of human resources has thus got the central position in the
Sambhram Academy of Management Studies, Bangalore 74
Organization Study Conducted at NTPC, Korba
strategy of the organization, away from the traditional model of capital and land.
Staff deals with the human resource management processes used to develop
managers, socialization process, ways of introducing young recruits to the
company, ways of helping to manage the careers of employees.
Staff means that the company has hired people, trained them well and assigned
them to the right job for which they are best suited according to their
qualifications, skills, knowledge and experience. An enterprise may have a
comprehensive business play, a sound organization structure, but it cannot
accomplish results per plan without effective staff in the company. At present in
NTPC there are no recruitments as they are overstaffed. They only training and
development for the existing employees. NTPC maintained cordial and
harmonious relationship with the employees.
Skills
The capabilities and competencies that exist within the company. What it does
best. To improve the efficiency of the company. NTPC is giving full training to our
workers for better utilization of skills.
Shared Value
All members of the organization share some common fundamental ideas or guiding
concepts around which the business is built. This may be to make money or to
achieve excellence in a particular field. These values and common goals keep the
employees working towards a common destination as a coherent team and are
important to keep the team spirit alive. Shared values means that the companies
share the same guiding value. Values are things that would strive and even if they
Sambhram Academy of Management Studies, Bangalore 75

where demonstrably not profitable act as an organization conscience providing
guidance in times of crisis.
At NTPC each individual department have specific goals and objectives within the
board framework of its Vision and Mission. They act as the framework for
achievement of organization objectives and goals efficiently and effectively. They
also bound to follow policies and procedures governed by the Government
Strategy
Strategy is the plan of action an organization prepares in response to, or
anticipation of, changes in its external environment. Strategy is differentiated by
tactics or operational actions by its nature of being premeditated, well though
through and often practically rehearsed.
Structure
Business needs to be organized in a specific from of shape that is generally
referred to as organizational structure. Organization is structured in a variety of
ways, dependent on their objectives and culture. The structure of the company
often dictates the way it operates and performs.
System
Every organization has some systems or internal processes to support and
implement the strategy and run day-to-day affairs. For example, a company may
follow a particular process for recruitment. These processes are normally strictly
followed and are designed to achieve maximum effectiveness.
