Problems facing the energy industry in India include lack of coal supplies to use all of the existing electricity generation plants. Lack of investment and modernization in the coal industry is holding back tapping of large coal reserves. India is expected to see a huge surge in energy demand in the next twenty years, with the International Energy Agency saying India will need $1.6 trillion in investment in power generation, transmission and distribution through 2035, and $550 million investment in coal, oil and gas sectors.

Hydroelectric power in India, the weak monsoon in 2012 and the overload on the national power grid

02/11/2010

Lower monsoon rainfall affects the amount of electricity generated from hydroelectric power stations such as the one at the Bhakra Nangal dam in northern India. India depends for about 20% of its energy on hydroelectric power. The delayed monsoon in 2012 may have aggravated the load on the power grid in India with farmers needing to pump water and lower hydroelectric generating capacity.
