As per an article in Livemint, the utilization levels of gas based plants have improved from 18% in January to 25% in September. The improvement has come on the back of the subsidies that are provided by the Union Government in relation to the gas based power plants.

Around, ten stranded gas based power plants were selected to receive government support in May 2015. Owing to these benefits, several companies restarted their gas based power plant during the current year. Private companies seem to be the biggest beneficiary whose utilization levels have improved to 19% as compared to 9% earlier.

However the support from the government will not be for long and is a short-term arrangement. Incentives are given for limited periods and companies have to rebid to receive fresh aid. The prices of the Regasified Liquiefied Natural Gas (R-LNG) will be the key things to watch out for in relation to the gas based power plants. Provided the prices of t R-LNG reduces, significant portion of the problems in relations to the gas based power plants will be solved.
