Author(s) Satvir Singh

Abstract Prior to Independence Power Sector in India was mainly controlled by Britishers and governed by Electricity Act, 1910 which regulated the operations of licenses of electricity companies. With the advent of independence, leaders and planners of India had the consensus of reorganizing the structure of Indian economy. Uninterrupted supply of power is the precondition for rapid growth of industrialization. Enthusiasm of private investment in such industries was not very encouraging. The Indian Government, therefore, initiated the steps of nationalization of the electricity sector. However, post Electricity Act of 2003, again the role of private sector in generation and distribution of electricity has greatly increased. The sources of data and information for the study are Annual Reviews of Performance of Thermal Power Stations, General Reviews (Annual), Annual Reports published by Central Electricity Authority (CEA), Ministry of Coal, Power, Government of India and Websites of Thermal Power Stations located in different states. The study will include input and output variables such as Capacity, Generation, Maintenance, Outage, Operating Availability, Plant Load Factor, Fuel Consumption etc. on which data would be readily available.
