This document discusses the current state and future prospects of India's power sector. It provides information on:
1) India's installed power capacity by source as of February 2016, which is dominated by thermal power but also includes hydro, nuclear, and other renewables.
2) The evolution of India's electricity grid from separate regional grids to a unified national grid in 2013.
3) Ambitious targets to increase power generation capacity to 930 GW by 2030 to meet rising demand, requiring an annual capacity addition of around 45,000 MW.
4) Various challenges facing the power sector including transmission and distribution losses, integrating renewable energy, and ensuring reliable supply.

*The current interregional transmission capacity is only around 13 per cent of
the total installed generation capacity
*With focus on increasing generation capacity over the next 8-10 years, the
corresponding investments in the transmission sector is also expected to
augment.
* Ministry of power plans to establish an integrated national power grid in the
country by 2016 with close to 2,50,000 mw generation capacities and 37,700
mw of inter-regional power transfer capacity
*Considering that the current interregional power transfer capacity of 25,000
mw, this is indeed an ambitious objective for the country.
*A large portion of new projects are likely to be in the North Eastern region,
Sikkim, Nepal and Bhutan.
