Cascade energy efficiency of Indian power system shows that over 90%
of the primary energy input is lost, on the way from primary energy
input to the power plant to the end use application. About 80% of total
power generated in India is from fossil fuels, and losses of such high
grade affect the economy. The demand-driven nature of power sector
value chain and the potential factors influencing generation, grid
operations, end-user behaviour and the techno-commercial and
operational aspects emphasize the significance of enabling policy
provisions in facilitating, developing, regulating and thereby converging
to the sustainable implementation of energy efficiency.
