World primary energy demand grows by 1.6% per year on average between 2006 and 2030 an increase of 45% The worlds energy needs would be well over 50% higher in 2030 than today. China and India together account for 45% of the increase in global primary energy demand in this scenario. - World Energy Outlook ( www.iea.org )

India - one of the fastest growing economies in the world. It is poised to grow at around 7 percent on moderate term. Indias Energy Consumption is 12.6 million btu. India energy intensity is higher compared to Japan, USA and Asia as a whole by 3.7, 1.55 and 1.47 times respectively (energy consumption compared to GDP). This indicates inefficient use of energy but also substantial scope of energy savings. Long term energy plan for India therefore should aim at Projecting the energy demand Projecting the energy mix Exploring the possibilities for alternative sources and Suggesting measures for energy efficient uses
The energy scene in the 21st century is going to see a major shift. Very soon, oil and gas will see its finiteness. It is high time that we realize this factor and work towards the fuel of the future.
- Dr. A P J Abdul Kalam, Former President of India, Address at Energy Technology Conclave Technology for Sustainability
If we expect our economy to keep growing at 9-10% p.a., we need a commensurate growth in power supply. The power sector has made good progress over the past few years. It has also seen very significant changes. However we have not been able to make a decisive breakthrough in ensuring high and sustainable rates of growth of this sector and improving its financial health. - Honble Prime Minister Dr. Manmohan Singh
India's energy potential is rated the third largest in the world, with annual installations of 875 mega watts (MW), only after Europe and the United States, exceeding forecasts of 500 MW - BTM Consult. A recent study by the World Resources Institute (WRI) Indias energy demand is expected to more than double by 2030. The country is consequently in need of a huge amount of new power generation capacity. Considering the figures of the WRI, the cheapest generating capacity for India will no doubt be energy savings.
