a brief description of power sector and its capacity

1. POWER SECTOR IN INDIA

2. INTRODUCTION
• India is the 9th
largest economy in the world, driven by a real
GDP growth of 8.7% in the last 5 years (7.5% over the last
10 years).
• With production of 1,052 terra watt hour (TWh), India is the
4th
largest producer and consumer of electricity in the
world. It also has 5th largest installed capacity in the world.
• Electricity production in India stood at 967 TWh during FY14.
The production expanded at a compound annual growth rate
(CAGR) of 5.6 per cent during FY07-14.

3. HISTORY
• The power sector in India has significant progress since
1947, the country had a power generating capacity of 1,362
MW with per capita consumption of 16.3 KWH .
• Hydro power and coal based thermal power have been the
main sources of generating electricity.
• Today this sector has an installed capacity of 2,23,344 MW
per capita consumption of 917.2( approx) KWH

4. ENERGY INTENSITY
• Energy intensity, defined as the energy input associated
with a unit of gross domestic product (GDP), is a measure
of the energy efficiency of a nation’s economy
• India’s energy intensity has been declining over the years
and is expected to decline further.

6. DEMAND AND SUPPLY OF ENERGY
• The year 2013-14 turned out to be a difficult year for the
Indian economy with GDP growth rate falling below 5 per
cent.
• Energy deficit came down to 4.2 per cent as compared to
8.7 per cent in FY 13 and peak deficit also fell to 4.5 per cent
from 9 per cent in FY 13

7. Power deficit scenario - All India in the period FY
05-14 (in per cent)

9. TYPES OF ENERGY

10. PREDOMINANT SOURCES OF POWER IN INDIA
• Thermal Power Energy
• Nuclear Power Energy
• Hydro-Electric Power Energy
• Solar Energy
• Wind Energy
• Geo-Thermal
• Tidal Wave Energy
• Bio-mass Energy

11. THERMAL POWER ENERGY
• At the end of financial year 2014, India had 243 GW of
installed power generating capacity. 69.2% of it is based on
thermal power projects, mostly dominated by coal based
power stations
• As of 31 March, 2014, the total capacity of coal based
thermal power plants was 145.3 GW (59.8% of the total).

12. • This capacity is aggregate of more than 140 thermal power
stations spread across the nation mainly in the eastern,
western and southern regions.

14. NUCLEAR POWER ENERGY
• There are currently 21 operational nuclear power reactors
in India, across 6 states generating 4,560 MW (2.9% of total
installed base)

20. SOLAR ENERGY
• India is endowed with vast potential for solar energy and is
rapidly emerging as a major manufacturing hub for solar
power plants.
• It is expected that the annual PV-installed capacity will grow
at a CAGR of around 49.5% between 2010 and 2014 to reach
1,500 MW by the end of 2014.

21. • From barely 20 MW in 2011, India’s installed solar capacity
has increased to 1,686 MW at the end of 2013.
• The total grid-connected solar capacity, commissioned
under the National Solar Mission, crossed the 2,500-MW
mark and stood at 2,632 MW as on March 31, 2014.

22. WIND ENERGY
• A total capacity of 22,465 MW has been established up to
December, 2014, mainly in Tamil Nadu, Gujarat,
Maharashtra, Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka and Rajasthan.
• Wind energy accounts for nearly 70% (21.1 GW) of installed
capacity, thereby making India the world’s 5th
largest wind energy producer.

23. GEO THERMAL ENERGY
• India’s geothermal energy installed capacity is experimental
at the moment. So commercial use is insignificant.
• India has about 340 hot springs spread over the country. Of
this, 62 are distributed along the northwest Himalaya, in the
States of Jammu and Kashmir, Himachal Pradesh and
Uttarakhand.

• DAMODAR VALLEY CORPORATION

25. NTPC
• Present installed capacity of NTPC is 44,598 MW comprising
of 39 NTPC Stations
• NTPC Ltd is the largest power generating company in India
both in terms of installed capacity and generated output.
The company is engaged in the business of generation
and sale of bulk power

26. NHPC
• Installed Hydro Power (40531) is 16.68% of All India
Installed Capacity of 243029 MW.
• NHPC Contribution (6507 MW) is 16.05% of Installed Hydro
Power.

27. TATA POWER
• Tata Power is India’s largest integrated power company
with a significant international presence. The Company has
an installed generation capacity of 8621 MW in India and a
presence in all the segments of power sector.
