India Electricity Industry Report - H1, 2013
This report discusses the current state of the electricity industry in India, with an analysis of trends in the sector through H1 2013 and market outlook through 2021–22. The report also includes reviews the leading players in the sector, among them NTPC, Tata Power, and Reliance Infrastructures.
India’s fast-paced economic growth and its rapid rate of industrialization and urbanization have fuelled energy demand. According to the Central Electricity Authority (CEA), an additional capacity of around 76,000 MW is needed to satisfy the projected demand by 2016–17. Given that electricity has become more and more imperative to achieving or maintaining India’s economic growth, the government has an ambitious vision to supply electricity to the whole of India in the coming years.
The country’s appetite for energy is growing extremely fast, with demand outstripping supply, which has resulted in power shortages. India consumes roughly 3% of the world’s total energy. Despite increases in energy use, consumption per capita in India is one of the lowest in the world, but this figure is steadily increasing. India currently has the fifth-largest generation capacity in the world. Thermal generation constitutes more than two-thirds of the total energy generation.
In order to fuel a rapidly growing economy, the Indian energy sector requires investments to the tune of USD 120bn–150bn every five years. The imperative for private sector investment is strong in order to complement the public sector in meeting this investment requirement and to bring in the required capabilities and technologies to enhance energy resource extraction. Moreover, government policies and foreign investment in the sector will help in bridging the gap between supply and demand for electricity in India.
