INDUSTRY OVERVIEW

Power or electricity is one of the most critical components of infrastructure affecting economic growth and well-

being of nations. The existence and development of adequate infrastructure is essential for sustained growth of

the Indian economy.

The Indian power sector is one of the most diversified sectors in the world. Power in India is generated from

commercial sources like coal, lignite, natural gas, oil, hydro and nuclear power as well as other viable non-

conventional sources like wind, solar, agriculture and domestic waste. The demand for electricity in the country


9/12

has been growing at a rapid rate and is expected to increase further in the years to come. In order to meet the

increasing requirement of electricity, massive addition to the installed generating capacity in the country is

required.

With countries across the globe fast taking to the use of renewable energy resources, India has progressed well

in adapting to both solar and wind energy on a large scale. Many states in the country like Gujarat and Madhya

Pradesh have contributed tremendously in their support to use of renewable energy.

Market Size

India is the fifth largest producer and consumer of electricity in the world after the US, China, Japan and Russia. It

has a market potential of 2 billion (US$ 2.66 billion) for setting up high-voltage transmission lines by 2018, as

per Alstom. The high-voltage direct current (HVDC) market is estimated at 50 billion (US$ 66.44 billion) in the

next 10 years, and Alstom is targetting a 20 per cent market share.

India is set to become a global manufacturing hub with investments across the value chain. About 82 gigawatt(GW) worth of generation capacity is set to be added during FY11-FY15; future investments will benefit from

strong demand fundamentals, policy support, and increasing government focus on infrastructure.

Investments

The investment climate is very positive in the power sector. Due to surge in the sector, the power sector has

witnessed higher investment flows than envisaged. The power ministry has set a target for adding 76,000

megawatt (MW) of electricity capacity in the 12th Plan and 93,000 MW in the 13th Five-Year Plan (2017-2022).

The industry attracted foreign direct investment (FDI) worth Rs 36,200.05 crore (US$ 6.10 billion) during April

2000 to April 2013.

Some of the major investments made into the Indian power sector are as follows:

Jakson Power Solutions plans to invest Rs 750 crore (US$ 126.46 million) in providing solar energysolutions across India in the next three to four years. The company has so far invested Rs 200 crore on its

20 MW solar power plant set up near Jodhpur

Crompton Greaves (CG) has won a contract worth 3.5 million (US$ 4.65 million) for the design,engineering, supply, installation and commissioning of a wind-power farm substation at the 75 MW Seine

Rive Gauche Nord wind farm in France

Tata Power Solar has won a 50 MW solar project from NTPC. The new plant at Rajgarh in MadhyaPradesh (MP) is expected to double NTPC's solar capacity

Indian Metals & Ferro Alloys (IMFA) has commissioned the second unit of its 2x60 MW captive powerplant (CPP) at Choudwar, Odisha


10/12

The US Agency for International Development (USAID) and US-based institutional investor NorthernLights Capital Group plan to invest US$ 100 million in India's clean energy sector via Nereus Capital

Tata Power has commissioned a 1 MW geothermal pilot plant in Australia, in association withGeodynamics

Government Initiatives

The Government of Indias decision to allow foreign direct investment (FDI) through automatic route in power

exchanges while retaining the cap at 49 per cent will open up opportunities for overseas players to participate in

the growth and development of the Indian power sector.

The Government has approved a scheme for the financial restructuring of DISCOMS to restore the health of the

power sector.

Under the Union Budget 2013-14, the government plans to construct a transmission system from Srinagar to Leh

at an investment of Rs 1,840 crore (US$ 310.26 million).

Some of the initiatives taken by the Government of India to boost the power sector are:

A 50 kilowatt peak (KWp) and a 100 KWp solar photovoltaic power plants were inaugurated inChandigarh by Dr Farooq Abdullah, Union Minister for New and Renewable Energy, Government of India.

The power plants incurred a cost of Rs 2.33 crore (US$ 392,884.24)

India and Turkey have agreed to enhance their cooperation in the field of renewable energy. Dr FarooqAbdullah, Union Minister for New and Renewable Energy, Government of India, has visited Turkey along

with a high level delegation to explore greater opportunities for cooperation and collaboration between

the two countries

The Cabinet Committee on Economic Affairs (CCEA) has approved five mechanisms for supply of coal topower producers. Under the mechanism, Coal India Ltd (CIL) will sign Fuel Supply Agreements (FSA) for

a total capacity of 78,000 MW

The first 363.3 MW unit of ONGC Tripura Power Company at Palatana, Tripura, was commissioned by MrPranab Mukherjee, the President of India

To give a boost to its efforts to bring down the cost of solar power in India, Ministry of New andRenewable Energy (MNRE) plans to roll out large MW size solar power projects, in the order of 500 MW

and above

Road Ahead

The Government of India has initiated several reform measures to create a favourable environment for the newly

added generating capacity in the country. The policies and reforms have put in place a highly liberal framework

for generation of power in the country. The government is also adopting constructive steps towards


11/12

implementing large-scale solar power projects and is poised to position itself as one of the worlds major solar

producer.

Renewable energy is fast emerging as a major source of power. Wind energy is the largest source of renewable

energy in India; it accounts for an estimated 87 per cent of total installed capacity in renewable energy. The

country aims to increase the importance of wind power even further; there are plans to double wind power

generation capacity to 20 GW by 2022.
