New Market Research Report: India Power Report Q1 2015

We expect growth in the Indian power sector to accelerate in 2015, on the back of positive economic and political momentum. Our long-term outlook for the sector is similarly positive as we believe that several fundamental drivers of growth for the sector are beginning to align in India's favour.

We forecast that electricity generation in India will grow by 5.6% in 2015, faster than 5.2% growth that we estimate the sector will experience in 2014. Our 2015 forecast can be attributed to the strengthening economic outlook and the reforms that Modi has started to initiate in the sector.

We have maintained our long-term forecasts for the Indian power sector, and forecast electricity generation to grow at an average of 5.7% per annum between 2015 and 2023. The outlook for the sector is extremely positive, and we believe that several fundamental drivers of growth are beginning to align in India's favour.

Key Trends And Developments

* The victory of Narendra Modi in the 2014 elections is positive for the sector as he is likely to introduce reforms to the power sector that focus on reducing red tape for new projects and improving fuel supply.
* Renewable energy is growing increasingly bankable and many Indian utilities and companies are investing in the sector.
* On August 25, India's Supreme Court ruled that all 218 coal mining licences awarded by the government between 1993 and 2010 were illegal. While only 30 out of the 218 coal mining blocks have been developed, an outright cancellation of these mining operations will deal a hard blow to the power sector.
