| What was the goal of the Electricity Act-2003 introduced by the Government? | To liberalize the development of power sector | The participation of Central Govt. in power generation programme started with the creation of two generating corporations viz. National Thermal Power Corporation (NTPC) for coal/gas-based capacity addition and National Hydro Power Corporation (NHPC) for Hydro development during the year 1975, which gave a fillip to the growth of power sector in the country. The setting up of Nuclear Power Corporation Ltd. (NPCIL) started the addition of nuclear based Capacity. In transmission Sector, Power Grid Corporation of India Ltd. (PGCIL) gave further boost to the power development programme. The Central Government has historically played a leading role in providing for energy needs of the nation.

| What role do step-up transformers play in a substation? | to transform voltage from low to high | ELECTRICITY TRANSMISSION AND DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM Electric power transmission is the bulk movement of electrical energy from a generating site such as a power plant to an electrical substation close to the location of beneficiary of the plant /consumers. The interconnected lines which facilitate this movement are known as a transmission network. The interconnected lines which facilitate the distribution of electrical energy at lower voltages to consumers are known as distribution network. Electric power may flow through several substations interconnecting the transmission & distribution lines at different voltage levels. A substation may include transformers to transform voltage from low to high (Step Up Transformers), high to low (Step Down Transformers) and high to low (at distribution level) (Distribution Transformers).
