Rapid Environmental Impact Assessment for 600 MW (2 x 300) Coal Based Thermal Power - aish123 - 08-17-2017 [attachment=14690] Rapid Environmental Impact Assessment for 600 MW (2 x 300) Coal Based Thermal Power Plant at Village-Bade Bhandar, District-Raigarh, Chhattisgarh 1.0 Preamble Power GenerationScenario in India As per the 5th National Power Plan (2002-2012) prepared by Central Electricity Authority (CEA) 2,12,000 MW power is required by the end of 11th Plan. Based on the report of the working group on Power constituted by Planning Commission, a capacity addition of 41,110 MW is targeted in 10th Plan ending in March, 2007, comprising 14,393 MW Hydro, 25,417 MW Thermal and 1300 MW Nuclear. The power generation in India is heavily dependent on conventional fuels like coal and lignite. The share of hydropower capacity has declined from 43.3% in 1970-71 to 39% in 1980- 81. At the end of 8th plan, it has further reduced to 28.26%. The share of coal as fossil fuel is projected to increase from 60% during 1995-96 to 74% of total energy by 2010. According to the Ministry of Power, as on July 31, 2007, India has an installed generation capacity of 135,007 MW approximately. Despite the fact that the economic liberalization policies of the government, which began in 1992, were designed to fuel growth across all sectors, the power industry has not grown sufficiently to meet demand. The gap between the demand, supply of the power has been increasing leading to increase power shortage. The following Table highlights the deficit over the year |
