Introduction

• Energy is essential for Economic growth and economic

growth is essential for country like India.

• Ratio of energy demand and GDP is useful indicator for

Economics growth.

• Economic growth of country

is depend upon rate of

improvement in per capita

energy consumption.

An Energy Summary of India

• India is both a major producer and consumer.

• India currently ranked 11th greatest energy producer accounting

2.4% of world’s total energy production and as the world’s 6th

greatest energy consumer.

• Despite its large annual energy production, India is a net

energy importer, mostly due to imbalance between oil

production and consumption.

Electricity Sector in India

• The utility electricity sector in India had an installed capacity of

278.734 GW as of 30 September 2015. Renewable Power plants

constituted 28% of total installed capacity and Non-Renewable Power

Plants constituted the remaining 72%.

• During the year 2014-15, the per capita electricity generation in India

was 1,010 kWh with total electricity consumption (utilities and non

utilities) of 938.823 billion or 746 kWh per capita electricity

consumption.

• Electric Energy Consumption in agriculture was recorded highest

(18.45%) in 2014-15 among all countries.

Conventional Energy Sources

Fossil Fuel

Need to reform in Energy sector

Non Conventional Energy Resources

• As of 31 July 2015, India had grid connected installed capacity of about 36.64 GW non-

conventional renewable technologies-based electricity capacity, about 13.32% of its

total.

• For context, the total installed capacity for electricity in Switzerland was about 18 GW in

2009.

• As of August 2011, India had deployed renewal energy to provide electricity in 8846

remote villages, installed 4.4 million family biogas plants, 1800 microhydel units and 4.7

million square metres of solar water heating capacity. India anticipates to add another

3.6 GW of renewal energy installed capacity by December 2012.

• India plans to add about 30 GW of installed electricity generation capacity based on

renewal energy technologies, by 2017.

• Renewable energy projects in India are regulated and championed by the central

government's Ministry of New and Renewable Energy.

Sources of Power with shares in total

installed capacity

• For the 12th Five-Year Plan, a total of 88.5 GW of power capacity

addition is targeted; of which, 72.3 GW constitutes thermal power,

10.8GW hydro power and 5.3 GW nuclear power.

Ministry of New & Renewable Energy, GoI. Retrieved 24 April 2015.

• India's Power Finance Corporation Limited projects that current and

approved electricity capacity addition projects in India are expected to

add about 100 GW of installed capacity between 2012 and 2017. This

growth makes India one of the fastest growing markets for electricity

infrastructure equipment.

• India's installed capacity growth rates are still less than those

achieved by China, and short of capacity needed to ensure universal

availability of electricity throughout India by 2017.

Energy Conservation in India

Energy Conservation in India

India needs to sustain a GDP growth rate of over 9% per annum

over the next two to three decades in order to eliminate poverty.

Energy consumption will need to grow at a commensurate pace

for such a GDP growth.

The present installed capacity is 1,38000 MW.

The estimated potential for energy saving during peak hours is

9240 MW.

The need for efficient use of resources, energy conservation

assume significance and must be an integral part of the policy

tools.

Energy Conservation Act

• Considering the vast potential of energy saving and benefits of

energy efficiency, the Government of India enacted the Energy

Conservation Act 2001.

• An Act which is provided for efficient use of energy and its

conservation.

• Under Indian Industry Program for Energy conservation (IIPEC)

the task groups for textile, cement, pulp and paper, fertilizer,

chlor-alkali and aluminium has been formed.

• Each task force is being headed by stakeholders and Bureau of

Energy Efficiency (BEE) is actively involved in organizing the

programs.

• Important features of Energy Conservation Act 2001

• Promotional Provisions to support Energy Conservation Act

• Indian Industry Program for Energy Conservation (IIPEC)

• Voluntary Energy Conservation Policy Declaration by Indian

Industry

• Small Group Activity on Energy Conservation

• National Energy Conservation Awards

sectors of the economy. It helps the government

in proposing policies and strategies aimed at

reducing India's dependency on oil, in order both

to save money and to reduce the environmental

impact of oil use.

(1987) To give financial support to specific

projects and schemes for generating electricity

and / or energy through new and renewable

sources and conserving energy through energy

efficiency.

Institutes Objective
