Electrical Energy Scenario INDIA 2024

Abstract: The global energy demand rises day by day with increase in population, industrialization and improvement in living standard of people. An energy source can be renewable or non-renewable. The energy of coal, gas, petroleum products ,nuclear fuels etc. transformed into electrical energy from long period so called conventional sources of energy. But the global energy crisis firmly motivates us to tap the energy from all available sources like small streams , solar light, wind, tidal energy, geothermal energy etc. called non-conventional sources of energy. These sources have been used for a few decades. After a few decades of use the non-conventional source becomes conventional.

Here in this paper we will discuss the energy scenario in India for electricity generation from various conventional and unconventional sources, the installed capacity of various power plants in India and the energy generation share of various energy sources.

Keywords: Non-Conventional energy source, Conventional energy source, Renewable energy.
