POWER INDUSTRY
INTRODUCTION:
The electricity sector in India had an installed capacity of 207.85 Gigawatt (GW) as of September 2012, the world's fifth largest. Captive power plants generate an additional 31.5 GW. Thermal power plants constitute 66% of the installed capacity, hydroelectric about 19% and rest being a combination of wind, small hydro, biomass, waste-to-electricity, and nuclear. India generated 855 BU (855 000 MU i.e. 855 TWh) electricity during the fiscal 2011-2012.
India has abundant sources of power production. Thermal power in India accounts for roughly two-thirds of the power generated in India which in includes gas, liquid fuel, and coal. Reserves for thermal power generation include 59 billion tonnes of mineral coal, 775 million metric tonnes of oil reserves and natural gas reserves of 1074 billion cubic meters. Presently, out of the total power being generated, 54.8% is coal based, 9.75% is gas based and 0.66% is oil based, hydro contributes for 21% of power, while nuclear production is 2.63% and the rest 11.1% ia collectively produced by renewable energy sources.
For nuclear power, India has one of the world’s largest reserves of nuclear fuel thorium. According to the Ministry of Atomic Enrgy, nuclear power generation was estimated at 13.543 million units. For water based power, India has an untapped hydro potential worth 1,50,000MW.
India has the world’s fourth largest number of wind energy installations. According to the
