As of January 2022, India has a total thermal installed capacity of 235 GW, with coal accounting for 51.6 percent of thermal power and the balance coming from lignite, diesel, and gas. In India, the private sector generates 48.5 percent of the country’s thermal power, while states and the central government generate 26.7 percent and 24.9 percent, respectively.

The Indian power sector is undergoing substantial upheaval, which has changed the industry’s outlook. The future of the power business in India is bright, and continuous economic expansion is driving electricity consumption. The Indian government’s emphasis on achieving “Power for All” has hastened capacity addition in the country.

On this note, EPR Magazine, as a part of its Power Talk, organised a live interaction on “Accelerating Power Plant’s Performance”, on 12th May 2022 where energy leaders, power producers and power plant managers discussed the government’s push to increase efficiency in the performance of power plants in India. They also discussed the advantages, challenges and opportunities of implementing technologies to enhance power plants’ efficiency.
