NTPC generates 219.94 billion units in H1 FY25

NTPC Ltd, India's largest integrated power utility, reported a generation of 219.94 billion units (BU) in the first half of FY 2024-25, marking a growth of 3.91 % compared to the same period last year. The increase comes as NTPC ramps up its power generation to meet the rising demand for electricity in the country. The plant load factor (PLF) for NTPC’s coal stations stood at 76.3 % for the April-September 2024 period. NTPC has been working to ensure a reliable supply of electricity as the nation's energy needs continue to climb. NTPC, which contributes about 25 % of India's total power requirement, operates a portfolio that includes thermal, hydro, solar, and wind power plants. The company’s solar projects include both ground-mounted and floating solar installations, adding to its growing energy mix. NTPC has significantly ramped up its power generation capabilities to meet the growing energy demand in the country, the company said in a statement, highlighting its focus on maintaining electricity supply amid rising demand. In addition to meeting immediate power requirements, NTPC has also been investing in cleaner energy technologies, aligning its efforts with the country’s broader goals to reduce carbon emissions. The company’s long-term strategy includes enhancing operational efficiency and expanding its renewable energy portfolio. NTPC's increased power generation comes at a time when India is witnessing peak electricity demand driven by economic growth, industrialisation, and urbanisation.
