Planning panel targets 88,000 MW of power generation capacity in 12th plan

24 Sep 2012 Evaluate

With an aim to meet the gap between high demand and peak deficit, the Planning Commission of India has targeted a power generation capacity of 88,425 MW during the 12th five year plan, 2012-17, while the commission had previously projected additional power generation capacity of 75,785 MW in the next five years.

The panel has estimated that the private sector has to share about 52% in the extra capacity, compared to the 19% in the 11th five year plan. It also affirmed the importance of developing a policy framework to trigger more investments in private sector. The 11th Plan had set a target addition of 78,577 MW capacity, but achieved about 52,000 MW capacity in the period. However, the renewable power share is declining, and this has to be enhanced to ensure low carbon growth strategy.

The commission has projected capacity addition in the non-fossil fuel plants including hydro capacity addition of 11,897 MW and nuclear capacity addition of 5,300 MW. It has considered importing of about 1,200 MW of hydro power from Bhutan. 30,000 MW grid interactive renewable capacity additions is also under consideration, constituting 15,000 MW wind, 10,000 MW solar, 2,100 small hydro and remaining from bio mass.
