Diversified Growth


As per new corporate plan, NTPC envisages to have an installed capacity of 128 GW by the year 2032
with a well diversified fuel mix comprising 56% coal, 16% gas, 11% nuclear energy, 9% renewable
energy and 8% hydro power based capacity.
As such, by the year 2032, 28% of NTPCs installed generating capacity will be based on carbon free
energy sources. Further, the coal based capacity will increasingly be based on high-efficient-low-
emission technologies such as Super-critical and Ultra-Super-critical. Along with this growth, NTPC
will utilize a strategic mix of options to ensure fuel security for its fleet of power stations.
Looking at the opportunities coming its way, due to changes in the business environment, NTPC made
changes in its strategy and diversified in the business adjacencies along the energy value chain. In its
pursuit of diversification NTPC has developed strategic alliances and joint ventures with leading
national and international companies. NTPC has also made long strides in developing its Ash Utilization
business.
Hydro Power: In order to give impetus to hydro power growth in the country and to have a
balanced portfolio of power generation, NTPC entered hydro power business with the 800 MW
Koldam hydro project in Himachal Pradesh. Two more projects have also been taken up in
Uttarakhand. A wholly owned subsidiary, NTPC Hydro Ltd., is setting up hydro projects of
capacities up to 250 MW.
Renewable Energy: In order to broad base its fuel mix NTPC has plan of capacity addition of
about 1,000 MW through renewable resources by 2017.
Nuclear Power: A Joint Venture Company "Anushakti Vidhyut Nigam Ltd." has been formed
(with 51% stake of NPCIL and 49% stake of NTPC) for development of nuclear power projects
in the country.
Coal Mining: In a major backward integration move to create fuel security, NTPC has ventured
into coal mining business with an aim to meet about 20% of its coal requirement from its captive
mines by 2017. The Government of India has so far allotted 7 coal blocks to NTPC, including 2
blocks to be developed through joint venture route.
Power Trading: 'NTPC Vidyut Vyapar Nigam Ltd.' (NVVN), a wholly owned subsidiary was
created for trading power leading to optimal utilization of NTPCs assets. It is the second largest
power trading company in the country. In order to facilitate power trading in the country,
National Power Exchange Ltd., a JV of NTPC, NHPC, PFC and TCS has been formed for
operating a Power Exchange.
Ash Business: NTPC has focused on the utilization of ash generated by its power stations to
convert the challenge of ash disposal into an opportunity. Ash is being used as a raw material
input by cement companies and brick manufacturers. NVVN is engaged in the business of Fly
Ash export and sale to domestic customers. Joint ventures with cement companies are being
planned to set up cement grinding units in the vicinity of NTPC stations.
Power Distribution: NTPC Electric Supply Company Ltd. (NESCL), a wholly owned
subsidiary of NTPC, was set up for distribution of power. NESCL is actively engaged in Rajiv
Gandhi Gramin Vidyutikaran Yojanaprogramme for rural electrification.
Equipment Manufacturing: Enormous growth in power sector necessitates augmentation of
power equipment manufacturing capacity. NTPC has formed JVs with BHEL and Bharat Forge
Ltd. for power plant equipment manufacturing. NTPC has also acquired stake in Transformers
and Electricals Kerala Ltd. (TELK) for manufacturing and repair of transformers.
