Indian Power Projects Update Nov 2009
Indian Power Projects slated for completion in 11th plan are showing very poor progress. However the achievement at the end of the 11th plan is expected to be around 75%. This is way ahead from the dismal figures of 9th and 10th plan. the silver lining is that all projects which fall under the 78700 MW addition planned in the current plan are progressing and to this private sector has been the handsome contributor. Current plan envisaged capacity addition from private sector to the tune of 19%. This figure is expected to jump to 65% for the 12th plan.This indeed would be a great achievement in planning stage itself.
