Lista de centrales eléctricas en la India

La capacidad total de generación de energía instalada en India al 31 de marzo de 2024 es de 441.969,60 MW , con un desglose por sector y tipo como se detalla a continuación. ^[1]

Para conocer la capacidad de generación de energía instalada por estado, consulte Estados de la India por capacidad de energía instalada .

Las centrales hidroeléctricas con una capacidad de generación de ≤ 25 MW se incluyen en la categoría Renovable (clasificadas como SHP - Pequeño Proyecto Hidroeléctrico).

La distribución de las fuentes de energía renovables (FER) es la siguiente:

• Energía solar (81.813,60 MW)
• Energía eólica (45.886,51 MW)
• Biomasa / cogeneración (10.355,35 MW)
• Pequeña central hidroeléctrica (5.003,25 MW)
• Conversión de residuos en energía (585,80 MW)

Las siguientes listas nombran muchas de las centrales eléctricas de servicios públicos en la India . ^[2]

Central nuclear de Kudankulam con una capacidad instalada de 2.000 MW. Esta central podría ampliarse hasta alcanzar una capacidad de 6.800 MW.

Energía nuclear

La energía nuclear es la quinta fuente de electricidad más grande en la India después de la térmica , la hidroeléctrica y las fuentes de electricidad renovables . ^[3] A marzo de 2017 ^[update], la India tiene 22 reactores nucleares en funcionamiento en siete sitios, con una capacidad instalada de 6780 ^[4] MW. ^{[5] [6]} y produciendo un total de 30,292.91 GWh de electricidad ^[7] 11 reactores más están en construcción para generar 8,100 MW adicionales.

La Corporación de Energía Nuclear de la India (Nuclear Power Corporation of India ) opera los veintidós reactores nucleares con una capacidad instalada de 6.780 MW, equivalente al 2,0% de la capacidad total instalada . La India ocupa el séptimo lugar en cuanto a número de reactores en funcionamiento (22) y el decimocuarto en cuanto a capacidad total instalada.

Central térmica

La energía térmica es la mayor fuente de energía en la India. Existen distintos tipos de centrales térmicas en función del combustible que se utiliza para generar vapor, como carbón , gas , diésel y gas natural . Alrededor del 71 % de la electricidad que se consume en la India se genera mediante centrales térmicas. ^[16]

Carbón

Más del 62% de la demanda eléctrica de la India se satisface a través de las vastas reservas de carbón del país . ^[16] La empresa del sector público National Thermal Power Corporation (NTPC) y varias otras empresas de generación de energía a nivel estatal se dedican a operar plantas de energía térmica a base de carbón. Además de NTPC y otros operadores a nivel estatal, algunas empresas privadas también operan las plantas de energía. ^[17] Una planta de carbón recibió autorización ambiental en 2021. ^[18] Aunque es poco probable que se construyan nuevas plantas, si se quema más carbón en las plantas existentes, aumentarán las emisiones de gases de efecto invernadero de la India . ^[19] Aquí hay una lista de plantas de energía térmica a base de carbón en funcionamiento en la India. ^[20]

→ Las centrales eléctricas retiradas o desmanteladas. ^{[21] [22]}

A base de gas

La capacidad total instalada de plantas de energía basadas en gas natural en la India es de casi 24.991,51 MW a septiembre de 2018. ^[16] Aquí hay una lista de plantas que están operando y esperando que el gas natural comience a operar. ^[36]

→ Las centrales eléctricas retiradas o desmanteladas. ^[21]

Diesel-based

The total installed capacity of major grid connected diesel-based power plants in India is 509.71 MW.^{[citation needed]} The installed capacity of captive power DG sets is estimated to be nearly 90,000 MW.^[40] Here is the part list of grid connected plants.

$ → The retired/scrapped power stations.^[21]

Renewable

India was the first country in the world to set up a ministry of non-conventional energy resources, in the early 1980s. India's cumulative grid interactive, or grid tied, renewable energy capacity (excluding large hydro) has reached about 87.38 GW, as of 2020.
