Power Generation in India: Analysing Trends and Outlook
India has been sprinting down the path of rapid economic progress over the last decade and this growth mo-
mentum is expected to continue in the near future. However, the growth would remain rhetoric unless India
ensures a strong infrastructural base. One of the most quintessential infrastructures for realising the anticipated
economic advancement is “Power”. Ensuring that India has sufficient power generation capacity to meet the
burgeoning demand is only one aspect of powering the nation. The other, more compound facet, is to ensure
that power generated is supplied to consumers in the most cost-effective and efficient manner. This clearly
signifies the inadequacies in the T&D systems in India apart from the fallacies experienced in the generation
segment.
Indian power sector was much known for its failures mainly on the grounds of lack of intelligent planning, wide-
spread ills of monopoly and poor financial status of state-owned companies. These disappointments prevented
the sector from meeting the energy demands of the growing economy. However, the quest for energy coupled
with strong winds of change forced India to introduce all round reforms across the value chain of the power
sector. Although the results so far are not very enthusiastic, it is not disappointing either. India has tasted both
success and failure in its journey of reforms and the march is still on.
Taking a peek into the sands of change experienced by Indian power sector and driving deep to churn out the
missing enablers, SNP Infra Research in its capacity as a premium research organisation presents high end
analytical research report to project an ice-breaking image of the Indian Power Sector.
The report not only analyses the trends but also projects the likely to be status of the power sector encompass-
ing the views of many leading sector players. This report also discovers the unexplored and provides the req-
uisite firsthand experience to have a complete understanding of the Indian Power sector mapping growth and
gap areas to evaluate the sector as an attractive avenue for investments.
In addition to the report, SNP Infra Research offers a comprehensive database of around 2,500 Upcoming
Power Plants in India. The database covers power plants across all technologies-Thermal including Coal, Oil
& Gas, large and small Hydro plants, Nuclear and Renewables covering Wind, Solar (Solar PV and Solar Ther-
mal), Biomass, Cogeneration, Waste-to-energy etc.
