Future Goals
The company has also set a serious goal of having 50000 MW of installed capacity by 2012 and 75000 MW by 2017. The company has taken many steps like step-up its recruitment, reviewing feasibilities of various sites for project implementations etc. and has been quite successful till date


Power Burden
India, as a developing country is characterised by increase in demand for electricity and as of moment the power plants are able to meet only about 60–75% of this demand on an yearly average. The only way to meet the requirement completely is to achieve a rate of power capacity addition (implementing power projects) higher than the rate of demand addition



NTPC Hydel
The company has also stepped up its hydroelectric power (hydel) projects implementation. Currently the company is mainly interested in the North-east India wherein the Ministry of Power in India has projected a hydel power feasibility of 3000 MW.
