Rs 40 trillion opportunity! India's power sector set for multi-decade boom; Tata Power, Power Grid top bets
power sector presents a colossal multi-decade investment opportunity, with an estimated INR40 trillion in investments over the next decade. This potential is fuelled by three key drivers: rising power demand, a necessary shift towards renewable energy, and the modernization of aging infrastructure.
Power demand in India is expected to grow at a faster rate, with a 7% CAGR over the next decade, driven by a robust economic outlook, urbanization, and new demand drivers such as electric vehicles (EVs), data centres, and the electrification of energy needs.
Currently, India's power consumption patterns mirror China’s growth trajectory from the early 2000s, where power demand compounded at nearly 8% annually. Similarly, India is now at an inflection point, with electricity consumption expected to rise substantially as the economy grows at 6.5-7% per year.
A significant portion of this investment will be directed toward the transition to cleaner energy sources. India is committed to reaching 500GW of renewable energy capacity by 2030, creating vast opportunities for renewable energy generation, particularly in solar and wind.
The power sector is undergoing a shift, with renewable energy generation and transmission being prioritized over traditional thermal energy, due to its shorter gestation period, better earnings visibility, and reduced exposure to coal price volatility.
