The objectives of this project are to:
i) Assist JPS in formulating a position on the regulatory framework for power wheeling
and auxiliary connections inclusive of requirements to be included in the national grid
codes.
ii)Set wheeling charges and electricity tariffs based on a long run marginal cost of
service study to promote open access by third parties to transmission and distribution
networks, economic efficiency of production and consumption and ensure financial
viability of the electricity sector, while taking into account social and equity
considerations. Efficient wheeling charges are a necessary condition for open access to
the networks and for enhancing competition.
iii) Develop the institutional capacity within the tariff unit to design economically
efficient tariffs based on marginal cost principles.
