HYDROPOWER PLANT IN
INDIA India is the 7th largest producer of
hydroelectric power.
The present installed capacity as
on 31 March 2016 is 42,783 MW
which is 14.35% of total utility
electricity generation capacity in
India.
In addition 4,274 MW small hydro
power units are installed as on 31
March 2016.
During the year 2014-15, the total
hydro electricity generation in India
was 129 billion Kwh which works
out to 24,500 MW at 60% capacity
factor.

FUTURE POTENTIAL
56 sites for pumped storage schemes with an aggregate installed
capacity of 94,000 MW have been identified.
Private sector owns nearly 7.5% out of the total 42,783 MW but this
sector is going to grow faster with the participation in developing the
hydro potential located in the Himalaya mountain ranges including
north east of India
