India's Power Sector Outlook | Toward Building a Worldclass Sustainable Power Sector
The Power & Energy Infrastructure sector in India is poised for a major take-off. The APDRP (Accelerated Power Development & Reforms Programme 2002 - 2012) has seen an addition of around 22,000 MW during last five years. And during the next five years, a capacity addition of over 78,000 MW has to be setup by 2012. (A commitment of 15,600 MW capacity addition per annum).

The Market Potential to sustain the GDP Growth rate of India @ 8% plus per annum needs the power sector to grow at 1.8 - 2 times the GDP rate of growth as espoused by economists, planners and industry experts. This would mean a YOY capacity addition of 18,000 - 20,000 MW to achieve this ambitious plan of moving India to a Developed Economy status, as an Economic Global Powerhouse. The Target Mission : ‘POWER for All by 2012’ would mean achieving the target of 1000 KwHr (Units) of per capita consumption of electricity by this period.

To achieve this goal, following milestones are critical :

• Attract US $ 250 Billion Investment into the sector. (FDI & Domestic Investment Combined)
• Adequate Capacity Growth to Sustain GDP Growth at 8% plus.
• Reliable & Quality Power On 24 x 7 basis, at least in Urban & Industrialized areas.
• 100% Rural Electrification with Adequate & Qualitative Power for irrigation purpose.
• Increasing the Role of Hydel & Renewable Energy in the Energy Mix.
• Urgent need to develop the alternatives, both in the Fuel & Technology terms.
• Focus on implementation (Outcomes are more important than Outlays) - as espoused by the Indian Prime Minister, Dr. Manmohan Singh

A high profile technical conference with the theme: 'India Rising ? Challenges of Building World Class Power Sector' will take place concurrently with the exhibition, offering an additional platform for exhibitors to present their products & services to leading Indian & International industry players.
