Vishnu Prayag hydro power project (400MW)
Vishnu Prayag hydro pow er project: Vishnu Prayag hydro power project
with generation capacity of 400MW (4x100MW) is one of India's largest private
sector hydro power projects developed, owned and operated by Jaiprakash Power
Venture Limited (JPVL, 80.6% owned by Jaiprakash Associates). The project is
run-of-river (RoR) project on river Alaknanda in Chamoli district in the state of
Uttarakhand and was commissioned in October 2006. The plant is designed to
generate 1,774 MU in a 90% dependable year, and actual generation stood at
1,871MUs in FY08 and 2,033MUs in FY09.
En-route to Vishnu Prayag: GVK's Alaknanda HEP, NTPC's Tapovan Vishnugad, etc. On our way to Vishnu Prayag
hydro power project, we came across four-five hydro power projects including GVK's Alaknanda HEP (at Srinagar),
NTPC's Tapovan Vishnugad, GMR's Alaknanda HEP and also proposed power projects by NHPC. The two projects where
construction work is going on at a full pace were GVK's Alaknanda and NTPC's Tapovan Vishnugad.
JPVL project portfolio of 13GW: JPVL has power project portfolio of ~13GW, comprising of 7.9GW of thermal power
projects and 5.1GW of hydro power projects. Of this, 400MW Vishnu Prayag hydro power project is already operational,
while 1GW Karcham Wangtoo project is under construction and is expected to be commissioned by May / June 2011.
Thermal power projects in advanced stages include 500MW of Bina power project (total size 1.3GW), and 1.3GW of
Nigrie thermal power project based on two coal blocks (Amelia and Dongri Tal) allotted to Jaiprakash Associates.
Equity funding of JPVL at Rs40-45b+ till FY12: Based on the projects under construction and the pipeline, we
expect equity requirement at Rs55b+, of which Rs10b+ has already been invested till March 2009. The balance funding
requirement stands at Rs40-45b+ till FY12, of which Rs18-20b is required in FY10.
Valuation and view : We expect Jaiprakash Associates to report net profit of Rs11.8b in FY10E (up 38% YoY) and
Rs11.5b in FY11E (down 2% YoY). Based on SOTP methodology, we arrive at price target of Rs227/sh. Stock trades at
PER of 24.6x FY10E and 25.1x FY11E. Maintain Buy.

Vishnu Prayag hydro power project
Vishnu Prayag hydro power project with generation capacity of 400MW (4x100MW) is
one of Indias largest private sector hydro power projects developed, owned and operated
by Jaiprakash Power Venture Limited (JPVL, 80.6% owned by Jaiprakash Associates).
The project is run-of-river (RoR) project on river Alaknanda in Chamoli district in the
state of Uttarakhand and was commissioned in October 2006. The plant is designed to
generate 1,774 MU in a 90% Dependable Year, and actual generation stood at 1,871MUs
in FY08 and 2,033MUs in 2009.
Run-of-the-river hydro power projects
Run-of-the-river is a type of hydroelectric generation whereby the natural flow and
elevation drop of a river are used to generate electricity. Power stations of this type are
built on rivers that generally have a consistent and steady flow of water, either naturally
or through the use of a large reservoir at the head of the river. Run-of-the-river projectsalso do not require the impoundment of water, such as through a dam.
Run-of-the-river systems operate as follows:
Process flow 1: Diversion and intake collect water: Water is taken from the river
by diverting it through an intake at a weir, which is a structure that ensures that the intake
remains submerged during periods of fluctuating flow. Water is then carried horizontally
to the forebay tank by a small canal or leat.
Before descending to the turbine, the water passes through a settling tank or forebay
in which the water is slowed down sufficiently for suspended particles to settle out. Theforebay is usually protected by a rack of metal bars (a trash rack) which filters out
water-borne debris.
Penstock transports the water to the turbine: A pressure pipe, or penstock, conveys
the water from the forebay to the turbine, which is enclosed in the powerhouse together
with the generator and control equipment.
Process flow 2: Turbine and generator convert the kinetic and potential energy
in the water to electrical energy. After this, the water is discharged down a tailrace
canal back into the river.

Jaiprakash has constructed an entire colony where the operations and management team
of the Vishnu Prayag power project and their families reside. Based on our interaction, we
understand that there are ~150 school going children and 100+ families.
