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 31st December 2024, the installed capacity is around 462 GW. Gujarat (57 GW) leads in power generation capacity, followed by Maharashtra (49 GW) and Rajasthan ...
The largest biomass-based power plant in India at Sirohi, Rajasthan has a capacity of 20 MW. During 2011, India installed 25 rice husk based gasifier systems for distributed power generation in 70 remote villages of Bihar, including a total of 1.20 MW in Gujarat and 0.5 MW in Tamil
[6] [7] Koyna Hydroelectric Project is the largest completed hydroelectric power plant in India, with a power capacity of 1960 MW. India's hydroelectric power output dropped by 16.3% in the fiscal year ending March 31, 2024, the largest decline in 38 years, primarily due to low rainfall. This decrease led to hydroelectricity's share of India's ...
