ENERGYIndian Scenario (11th Plan)

A Gist from Planning Commission ReportVenkat

Highlights of 11th Plan

• The envisaged growthrate of economy is 9%.

• India is 7th largest energyproducer and 5th largestenergy consumer inworld.

• Estimated average peakshortage is 12% in 2006-07.

Projected Energy requirement, 2030

• The projected requirement of coal has been estimatedassuming its calorie content to be 4000 kcal per kg and2865 kcal per kg for lignite.

Way Forward

• India is short of all energy resources. Need to expand resourcesthrough exploration, energy efficiency, renewables and R&D.

• Additional sources of energy like CBM must be fully exploited.Renewable energy sources contribution should be increased.

• More transparent policy framework that treats the different energysources in similar manner.

• Institutions promoting energy conservation and improvement needto be strengthened.

• Subsidies and support need to be linked to outcome of renewableenergy instead of capital investment.

• Development of robust energy R&D systems.

Development of alternative Fuels

• CBM-Coal Bed Methane – 26 blocks already been offered inbidding.

• Gas Hydrates – National GH Programme started in 1997.Seismic surveys conducted in KG & Mahanadi basin.Potential areas are Kerala & Konkan basin.

• UCG-Underground Coal Gasification – ONGC & GAILengaged for exploration.

• CTL-Coal To Liquid – Two blocks allocated to Tata & Jindal.• Bio fuels – Planned for 5% increase of ethanol in Bio-diesel

blended fuel.• Oil Shale – Identified in Assam, Arunachal Pradesh &

Nagaland estimated about 100 Billion barrels.
