The total quantity of power generated in the country during the last three years and the current year (upto June, 2024) is given at Annexure-I.
Government of India launched Pradhan Mantri Sahaj Bijli Har Ghar Yojana (SAUBHAGYA) in October, 2017 with the objective to achieve the universal household electrification in the Country. Under SAUBHAGYA, all willing un-electrified household in rural areas and all willing poor household in urban areas of the Country were provided electricity connection. A total of 2.86 Crore households of the country were provided electricity connection. The details of State-wise Household Electrification and grant disbursed are given at Annexure–II and Annexure-III.
Government of India is further supporting States under the ongoing Revamped Distribution Sector Scheme (RDSS) for electrification of those un-electrified households which were left out under SAUBHAGYA.
In addition, all identified Particularly Vulnerable Tribal Groups (PVTG) Households under Pradhan Mantri Janjati Adivasi Nyaya Maha Abhiyan (PM-JANMAN) for on-grid electricity connection are eligible for funding under RDSS.
The following challenges were faced during implementation of Saubhagya scheme:
- Households scattered in inaccessible & remote areas.
- Difficult & Hilly terrain, inclement weather, Riverine/Marshy/Snow bound areas.
- Poor/inadequate power infrastructure.
- Locations in Left Wing Extremism affected areas.
- Forest areas – requiring clearance.
- Non-availability of materials (like Poles, Distribution Transformers, Meters, etc.) at local level.
- Various Right of Way issues.
The State/UT-wise details of Household electrification (including Tamil Nadu) under RDSS (PVTG+Addl HHs) are given at Annexure-IV.
