Presently, NTPC is generating much of its electricity through coal and gas. It is also diversifying into hydroelectric generation and wind power. According to the Corporate Plan of NTPC, the power utility major will have a total generation capacity of 128,000 MW by 2032. As much as 28 per cent of this capacity will be based on non-fossil sources. They are: 11 per cent nuclear, 8 per cent hydro, 6 per cent wind and 3 per cent solar.

Need & Relevance

NTPC is committed to introducing and expanding the use of renewable energy and plans to add 1000 MW capacity addition through Renewable Energy sources by 2017. The company plans to participate in the national objective of developing and promoting clean energy technologies through the National Clean Energy Fund (NCEF) set up by the Government of India in 2010-11. It is planning to begin with three projects, including one solar thermal hybrid plant, with the help of the fund. Hydro capacity of 1,328 MW is under construction at Koldam (800 MW) in Himachal Pradesh, Tapovan Vishnugad (520 MW) in Uttarakhand and Singrauli (8 MW) in Uttar Pradesh. In addition to this, 291 MW capacity is being taken up at Lata Tapovan (171 MW) and Rammam (120 MW) in West Bengal. Since 1975, its year of establishment, it has been a pioneer in the power generation sector of our country with domestic as well as global presence in field power engineering and associated research. Today it is among the Maharatna Company of our nation.
