The Ministry of Power in India has set ambitious targets for expanding the country's power transmission network to 648,000 ckm by 2032 to cater to a peak electricity demand of 458 GW. With a focus on enhancing capacity, increasing connectivity, and strengthening power infrastructure, the National Electricity Plan 2023-2032 has been finalized. The plan, costing ₹91.5 billion, aims to support the integration of green hydrogen loads into the grid and facilitate the adoption of renewable energy sources. Key aspects of the plan include adding nine High Voltage Direct Current (HVDC) lines, boosting inter-regional transfer capacity, and approving 50 GW of interstate transmission system (ISTS) capacity. By 2030, the plan aims to evacuate 280 GW of variable renewable energy, with significant progress already made in transmission capacity additions and approvals for renewable energy transmission systems in several states. To address storage and grid stability needs, there are plans to add 39 GW of pumped hydro storage capacity by 2030. The government is also focusing on thermal capacity additions to meet peak demand requirements, with significant thermal capacity under construction and in planning stages. Recent developments include the award of 12.8 GW of new coal-based thermal capacity and revised guidelines for electric vehicle (EV) charging infrastructure. These guidelines aim to accelerate the deployment of EV charging infrastructure to meet the growing demand for electric vehicles in the country.
