Govt plans to add 88,000 MW power capacity by 2017

23 Jul 2012 Evaluate

Power Minister Sushilkumar Shinde has expressed his confidence that India could raise 88,000 MW more power capacity in next five years provided the fuel issue is solved. The present power generation capacity of India is 200,000 MW, with a peak shortfall of 10%. The 88,000 MW capacity addition target includes about 8,000 MW nuclear capacity and some of the projects, which were earlier scheduled in the 11th plan will be carried forward to the 12th plan.

The 11th plan period (2007-12) had aimed about 78,000 MW, which was later brought down to 62,000 MW in the mid-term appraisal, but attained 55,000 MW. While, target in the 10th plan period (2002-07) was 42,000 MW but only 50 percent of the capacity was achieved.

Shinde confirmed that the government is setting plans for faster land procurements and increase in coal production for attaining the capacity addition of 88,000 MW by 2017. The government had urged Coal India (CIL) to raise production to meet the demands of the power sector. The company is planning to produce nearly 470 million tonnes of coal during the current financial year (2012-13).
