Interaction Oct 01, 2015 The low PLF was not just on account of coal shortage Archana Bhatnagar, Associate Vice President-Development & Financial Services (Power Plants) Wartsila India Pvt Ltd, strongly believes that the low PLF was mainly due to excess base load capacity in the system
Interaction Sep 01, 2015 Under-utilised capacities require to be substantiated with demand LT and HT cables form a major part of our business, which is highly price sensitive and focus is on being competitive. Here, producing good quality cables that meet standards is a challenge and the focus will need to be lean manufacturing and tighter process control.
Interaction Sep 01, 2015 I expect 100 per cent growth in solar till 2018 Solar manufacturing in India is still not competitive due to high manufacturing costs. The reasons behind this are less government support, improper supply chain and lack of scale.
Interaction Sep 01, 2015 Our anti-dumping policy has led to imports costing around 25% less Predominantly today, the solar industry is ruled by capital costs and the impact directly comes from the manufacturing capacity. The problem is that whatever manufacturing we have is either slightly outdated or not big enough to compete on cost.
Interaction Sep 01, 2015 The Power Ranger While NTPC took 10 years to build its first 10,000 MW capacity, 11 years to build the next 10,000 MW, and 7 years to build the third block of 10,000 MW capacity; the last 10,000 MW has been added in a short span of four years.
Interaction Sep 01, 2015 We require growth in the intra and inter-state electricity grids The RE sector has grown at over 10 per cent per annum over the last two years, driven majorly by the wind sector accounting for 4,300 MW new installations, followed by solar installations of around 1,900 MW in the same period.
Interaction Sep 01, 2015 Integrate the value chain to become true domestic manufacturers There is low capital being infused and solar projects have large capital requirements. We are competing with China, where the smallest capacity is 1 GW and every player has at least 3-5 GW installed. But, we can only compete with them if the government gives us similar kinds of incentives.
