ELECTRICAL ENERGY GROWTH IN INDIA:

India is a major force in the global energy economy. Energy consumption has more than
doubled since 2000, propelled upwards by a growing population – soon to be the world’s
largest – and a period of rapid economic growth. Near-universal household access to
electricity was achieved in 2019, meaning that over 900 million citizens have gained an
electrical connection in less than two decades.

GROWTH OF GROSS ELECTRICITY GENERATION:
India is the third largest producer of electricity in the world.[6] During the fiscal year (FY) 2019–20,
the total electricity generation in the country was 1,598 TWh, of which 1,383.5 TWh generated by
utilities.

GROWTH OF ELECTRICAL ENERGY CONSUMPTION PER YEAR:
REASONS OF POWER CRISIS:
1. OVERCONSUMPTION: The energy crisis is a result of many different strains on
our natural resources, not just one. There is a strain on fossil fuels such as oil, gas,
and coal due to overconsumption.
2. OVERPOPULATION: Another cause of the crisis has been a steady increase in the
world’s population and its demands for fuel and products.
3. POOR INFRASTRUCTURE: Aging infrastructure of power generating equipment is
yet another reason for energy shortage. Most of the energy-producing firms keep on
using outdated equipment that restricts the production of energy.
4. Unexplored Renewable Energy Options: Renewable energy remains unused in
most of the countries. Most of the energy comes from non-renewable sources like
coal. Unless we give renewable energy a serious thought, the problem of energy
crisis cannot be solved.
5. WASTAGE OF ENERGY: In most parts of the world, people do not realize the
importance of conserving energy. Unless we give it a serious thought, things are not
going to change anytime sooner.
6. POOR DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM: Frequent tripping and breakdown are a result of
a poor distribution system.
SENARIO OF POWER SECTOR IN INDIA BY 2030:

India is expected to be among the top growth markets in the world for electricity in the
coming decade. At the same time, electricity supply mixes are changing worldwide, in
large part due to the rise of renewable energy (RE).
Apart from RE, the elements of the Indian electricity sector transition today include near
zero energy and peak deficits, and stranded capacity in the coal sector, projected
slowdown in demand owing to structural factors and energy efficiency, and
electrification of new applications such as cooking, transport, and industry. On the policy
front, there is a shift in emphasis from merely capacity addition to minimising deficits,
efficient utilisation, risk-reward frameworks and addressing contemporary challenges in
fuel security and air pollution.
This study models the generation requirement from thermal power plants by 2030
based on developments in non-fossil capacity and electricity demand. This is with the
objective of deriving application-wise and source-wise domestic and imported demand
for coal in 2030. A mix of scenarios are presented combining changes in demand growth
as well as alternatives for non-coal capacity. Generation requirement and, subsequently,
coal demand are derived as residual in the model that simply matches the supply with
the demand at the bus-bar.
