Reliance Power Strategy Reduction of Cost of Power Generation We intend to continue our focus on reducing the cost of power generation by acquiring and developing captive fuel sources that will insulate us from the volatility in the market price of fuel and can thus leverage our operating efficiencies. Such a move is pursuing economies of scale, securing favorable financing and sharing resources among our various power projects and with our affiliates.

Ensuring Fuel Supply Securing adequate supplies of fuel is critical to the success of a power project. To ensure fuel security, we continue to take proactive steps to ensure access to sufficient coal reserves domestically and globally by investing in additional overseas opportunities that are a strategic fit with our business. While we have secured fuel supplies for our entire coal-fired portfolio, we will continue to strive to control the entire supply chain to ensure continued and uninterrupted availability and control costs.

Focusing on Power Deficit Regions We intend to locate our power projects and enter into off-take arrangements in power deficit regions that typically support higher market-wide tariffs. We will continue to concentrate our off-take arrangements on the Western and Northern regions of India, which we believe will comprise the bulk of power demand in India. We also intend to focus our merchant off-take sales in these two regions to derive better returns on power generated from our projects.

Establishing an Optimal Mix of Off-take Arrangements We intend to continue to pursue an optimal mix of long and short-term PPAs to minimize the risks and maximize returns for our shareholders. For power projects situated closer to load centers, we have entered into and will continue to enter into a mix of long and short-term PPAs to achieve a balanced portfolio. For power projects located in other locations, we intend to continue to focus on long-term PPAs. Further, we plan to continue to maintain a significant 2

Targeting Additional Revenue Sources We are actively pursuing opportunities to target additional revenue sources, including by selling carbon credits and fly ash. Our Sasan, Krishnapatnam, Chitrangi and Tilaiya power projects will be eligible for the CDM benefits as a result of the supercritical technologies. ash procurers in NCR and Western Uttar Pradesh. We expect that we will be able to generate additional revenue from the sale of fly ash when more of our domestic coal-fired power projects commence operations.

PEST analysis of Reliance Power 4

Reliance Power

Political Forces: The Government of India has a mission of “Power to all” by 2012. Government is having very ambitious plans for increasing the capacity of the power sector and hence is encouraging power sector companies like RPower.

Economic Factors India is in the rising phase of its economy curve, the economy of the country was growing at 9 % before it is affected by recession in 2008. Even during recession also it managed to touch 7.9% while developed countries suffering from negative growth. The per capita consumption is expected to increase 1000 KWH. So, this provides huge opportunity for Reliance Power 5

Reliance Power Socio cultural factors With a population of India increasing and the scenario of the country is changing from survival to consumption mode, the demand for electricity continue to be on increase. As a result of which power generation sector promises increasing returns to those who have already positioned themselves strongly in this sector

Technological factors: The operational efficiency of a thermal power plant is only 30% that is very poor Also, the advantages of low installation cost is disserted with the invention of nuclear power.

Reliance Power

Threat of New Entrants: With the government deregulation there is always a threat of new entrants into the market. Reliance power and other companies in the power sector always face the threat and as such they have to prepare themselves for the competition against the new entrants.

Rivalry among existing firms: Reliance power has competition against already established players like NTPC, Tata, Jindal, Adani NHPC, Jaiprakash Power Ventures Ltd, etc . So the company has to prepare itself for competition against them. The company should formulate its strategy in a way that it minimizes its costs and quotes less price for the different bids.

Threat of Substitute Products: 7

Reliance Power The generators, solar energy are the main substitutes for the electricity. The company has to formulate its strategy accordingly.

Bargaining power of buyers: This factor does not affect the company a lot because the company supplies electricity in a particular area and there is no other player in the same area, so the buyers cannot bargain.

Bargaining power of sellers: The bargaining power of sellers which include suppliers of coal, technology, manpower has a impact on reliance power and they should formulate their strategy accordingly.

Large-scale capacity

Value Chain analysis 9

Reliance Power A value chain is a chain of activities for a firm operating in a specific industry. The business unit is the appropriate level for construction of a value chain, not the divisional level or corporate level. Products pass through all activities of the chain in order, and at each activity the product gains some value. The chain of activities gives the products more added value than the sum of added values of all activities. It is important not to mix the concept of the value chain with the costs occurring throughout the activities.

Reliance Power Plans to span over entire value chain in the power business.

TOWS MATRIX SO 17

Reliance Power It reflects how strengths can be used to take advantage of opportunities. Reliance power has a established and good image, therefore it can skim the huge scope in power sector.

WO It implies how you overcome your weaknesses to take advantage of your opportunities. The distribution which is something new for the company can be used to cover and reach the places where there is no electricity, therefore distribution opportunities arise.

ST It implies how the strengths can be used to overcome threats. The strategically located power projects of the reliance power can be used to deal with the threats of the other players in the market like Tata Power etc.

WT It implies you overcome your weaknesses to avoid threats. The financing of the Dadri project which is a big liability should be prevailed over to tackle any delay in the implementation of other projects.

ROLE OF STRATEGY Every company on a small level with very low risk or a multinational company with much more to lose than just money on the line has to have a strategy to make its name in the world with other companies in mind. Strategy is as important in an organization like walking for a human. Behind every successful organization there is a strategy. “It may be hard for an egg to turn into a bird: it would be a jolly sight harder for it to learn to fly while remaining an egg. We are like eggs at present. And you cannot go on indefinitely being just an ordinary, decent egg. We must be hatched or go bad.”-C.S.Lewis The idea from above statement says in strategy you cannot just attempt something that you have to or will do just like that you need to take small and control in sometimes brave steps to 19

Reliance Power achieve what you desire and have to be patient because in planned strategy to work time is your biggest friend and sometimes the worst enemy. Sometime it takes years to be where you want your organization to stand. In a competitive business environment you have to realize the brutal facts of Market environment, Financial and Economic conditions. You need to ask yourself the hard questions before making a strategic plan weather it can be achieved or not and have to make sub small plans those will help you. You have to think of the value added to the organization after the completion of your strategy.

CONCLUSION After completing this assignment, which was more of a research, I came to a conclusion that in any business, successful or a newly established, if not managed well and unable to take advantage of its opportunities can come to its knees. So for a business to run successfully we have to manage its Competitors and threats that may affect the performance of a business. The power generation and transmission industry, being Reliance Power’s most significant market area, continues to undergo significant changes as more users in growth markets gain access to power generation, the importance of end-to-end solutions increases and technology continues to evolve. Another trend is an increased emphasis on the role of distribution of power. These changes have demanded agility and flexibility from industry players to adapt to new market conditions rapidly. Thus, Reliance Power aims at capitalizing on efficiency and its skill in execution as well as demand supply chain management to respond to these requirements.
