INDIAN POWER SECTOR 1. INTRODUCTION [1] 1.1 Indian Power Sector (Generation and Supply) The Indian Power Industry is one of the largest and most important industries in India as it fulfils the energy requirements of various other industries. It is one of the most critical components of infrastructure that affects economic growth and the well-being of our nation. India has the world’s 5th largest electricity generation capacity and it is the 6th largest energy consumer accounting for 3.4% of

We can divide the power sector into four difference stages .Normally the manufacturing power equipment and power generation units come under oligopoly . The power transmission and power distribution come under monopoly. POWER EQUIPMENT MANUFACTURER BHEL ‚NTPC are India’s leading power equipment manufacturer‚ and has established its competitiveness against multinationals in the field. There are many power manufacturing companies so it forms a oligopoly.The selection

Nuclear Power Plants and Safety Since the humans use energy sources such as wood‚ coal‚ and oil to produce electricity‚ people want to use better energy sources to produce electricity more. By the mid twentieth century‚ scientists found the method of making incredible energy by using uranium as nuclear fission. Today there are about 400 nuclear power plants around the world and more than 100 nuclear power plants in United States (Howstuffworks). In addition‚ nuclear reactors produced a lot of
