Capacity
The total installed capacity (excluding renewable energy) in India has increased to 234,745 MW in 2014-15 from 142,677 MW in 2009-10, an addition
of 92,068 MW. Moreover, around 43,300 MW of captive power capacity is also connected to the grid (as on March 2013).
Capacity additions have exceeded the target set each year since 2011-12 to 2014-15. The Electricity Act, 2003 coupled with competitive bidding for
power procurement implemented in 2006, encouraged the participation of private players who announced large capacity additions. As a result, private
players have commissioned significant number of projects over the last three years leading to a robust growth in capacity addition.

While the private sector has added significant capacities over the last year, most of those project have been awarded through the introduction of
competitive bidding in 2006. Few key players in the private sector include Tata Power, Adani Power, JSW Energy and Reliance Power. In 2014-15,
around 36 per cent of the total capacity additions had been competitively bid. A significant share of these capacities are imported coal based projects, a
few examples being Mundra UMPP (4000 MW) of Tata Power, Salaya TPP (1200 MW) of Essar Power and Mundra TPP (4620 MW) of Adani Power.
