Additional smaller hydroelectric power units with a total capacity of 4,683 MW (1.3% of its total utility power generation capacity) have been installed. [3] India's hydroelectric power potential is estimated at 148,700 MW at 60% load factor. [4] In the fiscal year 2019–20, the total hydroelectric power generated in India was 156 TWh ...
This is a list of states and territories of India by installed power generation capacity. This is measured in Megawatts (MW) which is equal to one million watts of electric power. As of 30 September 2024, the installed capacity is around 453 GW. Gujarat (55 GW) leads in power generation capacity, followed by Maharashtra (48 GW) and Rajasthan ...
Hydroelectric power plants with ≤ 25 MW generation capacity are included in Renewable category (classified as SHP - Small Hydro Project) . The break up of renewable energy sources (RES) is: Solar power (90,762.12 MW) Wind power (47,362.93 MW) Biomass/cogeneration (10,724.46 MW) Small hydro (5,075.75 MW) Waste-to-energy (604.49 MW)
Renewable energy plants, which also include large hydroelectric power plants, constitute 43% of the total installed capacity. India’s electricity generation is more carbon-intensive (713 grams CO 2 per kWh) than the global average (480 gCO 2 /kWh), with coal accounting for three quarters of generation in 2023.
