摘要
India has made many changes to modernize the power sector after the independence. In this research paper, authors analyzed the power sector evolution over 7 decades by using different Govt. Reports, Ministry reports, different research articles, NITI Aayog reports etc. The detail description is mentioned in Table 1. The study examines the power generation, power transmission, power distribution and modernization the power system and aligned it with Five Year Plan (FYP). The focus area includes fuel mix trends, capacity expansion, T&D loss reduction, and the adoption of smart grid and AMI technologies. After analyzing the public data and methodology the observation is coal remains dominant but there is a growth in renewable energy. T&D losses have decreased but the challenges are involved in grid efficiency and modernization. The study highlights the need of technology advancement to achieve sustainable development goals and promote a low-carbon, efficient power sector in India.
