Résumé

For this potential to appear clearly in the public debate, the so-called 'technicalities' of the power sector should no longer be the monopoly of a few specialists and technocrats. And indeed, India's history of economic regulation has entered into a new era when, in the power sector, the model of 'independent regulation' for utilities got enacted through the Electricity Regulatory Commissions Act, 1998, then followed by the new Electricity Act 2003. The Regulatory Commissions gained a saying in virtually all technical matters within the utilities. The biggest chasse gardee of the SEBs engineers had not resisted. This volume comes as third in a series on the power sector reforms in India. The series attempts at understanding (i) the organizational tasks, (ii) the tariffs aspects, (iii) the role of the private, (iv) the role of technology in the complex, variegated, state-specific Indian scenario.
