(a) Thermal power:

The general outlook of the sector is positive with availability of quality resources and competent human
resource. The sector is becoming highly competitive as the risks involved are minimal.
(b) Hydro power:
India’s energy portfolio today depends heavily on coal-based thermal energy, with hydropower accounting
for only 26 percent of total power generation. The Government of India has set the target for India’s
optimum power system mix at 40 percent from hydropower and 60 percent from other sources. Though
the government is emphasizing on the development of this renewable energy sector, there are many road
blocks for conceiving any new Hydro Electric project. The main reasons for the slow development are
difficult and inaccessible potential sites, land acquisition and rehabilitation, environmental clearance and
political and local agitation. Government has amended its Hydro policy to reduce the gestation period of
the project and encouraging the private players to be partner in the development of the sector. Some of
the Hydro Power projects being executed by your Company are as follows:
