Abstract
This study reports the performance of 23 Electrical Distribution Divisions (EDD's) of an Indian state, Uttarakhand for the period of 2005–2006 using the concepts of Additive Model (AM), Slack Based Modelling (SBM) and Two-stage Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA). Slack Based Modelling helps in quantifying the slacks, which is a hidden source of inefficiency that might be present in BCC efficient DMU's. Following the slack quantification, a two-stage DEA is applied. The results obtained from AM and SBM indicate that numerous EDD's have scope for improvement in overall efficiency by incorporating the slacks that have been identified in the particular EDD. Further the two stage DEA modelling suggest that the inefficiency is primarily due to the intermediate measures.

A novel power sector restructuring model based on Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA)

TL;DR: In this paper, an alternative reorganization model for selecting the EDDs for disintegration and selecting the optimum scale of disintegration is proposed based on the efficiency analysis of 2007, which is verified by comparing the mean efficiency score of the EDD derived using proposed model with that of existing ones.

Regional disparities in electrification of India – do geographic factors matter?

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined the factors that influence household and village electrification, with particular attention given to the influence of geographic factors, and found that household electrification depends on household characteristics, the degree of community electrification and the quality of electricity supply.
