The document discusses India's current power scenario and plans for the future. It notes that India currently has 185.5 GW of installed power capacity, but still has 300 million people without electricity. Per capita consumption is low at 778 kWh compared to world and EU averages. Transmission losses are also very high at 35-45%. The government is focusing on increasing power generation through new solar, tidal, biomass, nuclear and hydroelectric projects. Research is needed on utilizing India's deserts for solar power and reducing transmission losses. New power projects are planned in West Bengal totaling over Rs. 700-750 crore.

3.Shelter
4.what??

3. “power”

5. Current Scenario in
India
 Presently Installed: 185.5GWatt
 5th largest in World
 Per capita consumption:778KWh

8.  At present 300million without
electricity!
 Avg. Per capita consumption of
world:2600KWh;
 6200Kwh for European Union
countries
 But India:778KWh!!!
 35-45% transmission loss(highest in
world!!)
 Power failure, poor regulation

10. What Are They Thinking??

11.  GDP at present:6.9% & expected 7.6%
after this fiscal year(2012-13)
 Stress given on more industry
 customs duty exemption on imported
fuel and lower levy on overseas funds
for projects to provide relief to crisis-hit
power sector.
 More private investment.
 India needs at least $135billion to
produce 600-1200GW within next 40
years ,which is urgent.
 Reduction in power tariff..

12. New & Upcoming
projects

13. ASIA’s 1st TIDAL POWER PLANT(50mw )

14.  Solar power generation
park,having 620 MW generation
capability, started last week in
Gujrat…
 India’sLargest and one of the
largests in Asia…

16. 125 biomass power plants of almost 1300 MW power plant
30 solar power plants.
3 Nuclear power plants of 2720MW including Kudankulam.
More hydro electric power plants

17. Research Area
1.35000 KM^2 Thar desert is
sufficient in generating 700 to
2100GW solar power .It can meet
the increasing demand of modern
India
2. India is suffering from acute
T&D loss of 35% almost. For a
standard power system it is 7-
8%.Modern technologies should
be invented.
3.More dependence on Wind
power surrounding sea area.

19. Efficient Energy Use

23. NEW projects
 West Bengal Green Energy Corporation
Limited (WBGECL), the state’s nodal
renewable energy agency, has outlined
investments worth Rs 700-750 crore over the
next two to three years.(within 2012-13).
 Katwa thermal power project of 1600 MW by
NTPC.
 1600MW power project by L&T Power.
 2*600MW DVC project at Raghunathpur.
 2*250MW DPL Project
 2*660MW WBPDCL project at murshidabad.

24. CLEAN ENERGY
 West Bengal playing major role in Solar&
Biomass energy.10% of total power
consumption of Howrah will be from Solar
energy.
 Total 28MW biomass power plant at North
dinajpur, Birbhum & Burden by pvt.
Organizations.
