ADANI POWER LIMITED

Adani, a conglomerate with a formidable presence in multiple businesses across the globe, has entered the power sector to harbinger a power full India, by generating 20,000 MW of power by 2020. Our comprehension of the criticality in meeting the power requirement and its crucial role in ensuring the energy security of India, spurs us to build Indias largest and one of the worlds top 5 single location thermal power plant in Mundra. Along with thermal power generation, Adani power has made a paradigm shift by venturing into Solar power generation in Gujarat. It is Adanis endeavour to empower one and all with clean, green power that is accessible and affordable for a faster and higher socio-economic development. We are achieving it with our out-of-the-box thinking, pioneering operational procedures, motivated team and a yen for trendsetting. Our enthusiasm and energy has earned us accomplishments that make us the FIRST, FASTEST AND LARGEST power company in many aspects. Adani Power Limited has commissioned the first supercritical 660 MW unit in the country. Mundra is also the WORLDS FIRST supercritical technology project to have received CLEAN DEVELOPMENT MECHANISM (CDM) Project certification from United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC). Adani power has the FASTEST turnaround time of projects in the industry. Poised to be the LARGEST private power generating company in India.
POWER INDUSTRY
The power industry is responsible for the production and delivery of electrical energy in sufficient quantities via a power grid. Given the demand for electricity is uniform across all domestic, industrial and commercial operations, power is viewed as a public utility and basic infrastructure. The electrical power industry is commonly split up into four processes, namely, electricity generation (e.g. power station), electric power transmission, electricity distribution and electricity retailing. In many countries, electric power companies own the whole infrastructure from generating stations to transmission and distribution infrastructure. For this reason, electric power is viewed as a natural monopoly and is thus heavily regulated. There has been great concern over the past 2 decades about the scarcity of energy resources, and the need to focus on alternative fuel and renewable energy options. Despite environmental concerns, there hasnt been much traction thus far for these greener options. However, there are indications that renewable energy and distributed generation, which have typically been less cost effective, are finally becoming more viable in economic terms. Additionally, a diverse mix of generation sources reduces the risks of electricity price spikes.
Performance The capital-intensive power industry suffered tremendous losses due to the economic recession. Industry analysts have revealed that there was a staggering 50% decline in the number, value and capacity of new projects between the beginning of the credit crunch in Q3 2008 and Q3 2009. There is a silver lining though, as analysts believe figures for Q3 2009 have shown signs of positive growth. Going forward, it is believed the hotspots of activity will primarily be in India, China and the UK. As well as new builds, there are also significant opportunities for synergies across the global energy supply chain with industry and governments keen to invest in and adopt new technologies. In order to best capitalize on these new opportunities, major contractors and companies across the energy supply chain have begun to work together more closely, to streamline their operating and procurement procedures. India has the fifth largest electricity generation capacity in the world. The total installed capacity of India is ~150,000 MW, of which majority of generation, transmission and distribution capabilities with either public sector companies or with State Electricity Boards (SEBs). Only ~15% capacity is from the private sector, though this is now beginning to increase. Market research suggests ~65% of Indias total installed capacity is contributed by thermal power with the Western and Southern regions each accounting for ~30%. Due to unbalanced growth and rural-urban disparity, only ~40% of rural household have access to electricity versus ~80% of urban households. Key players include National Thermal Power Corporation Limited, Nuclear Power Corporation of India Limited, North Eastern Electric Power Corporation Limited, Power Grid Corporation of India and Tata Power. Growth potential The Indian power sector is experiencing a large demand-supply gap. At present, the energy shortage in the India is ~10% but there are States where the energy shortage is as high as 25%. To combat this, over 80,000 MW of new generation capacity is planned in the next five years. A corresponding investment is required in Transmission and Distribution networks. The Indian Ministry of Power has set a goal, Mission 2012: Power for all and released a comprehensive sector development blueprint. The main objectives, in addition to providing 100% access to power, are to provide sufficient power to achieve targeted GDP growth rate of 8%, provide reliable and good quality power and to enhance commercial viability. A huge capital investment of about US$ 200 billion is required to meet Mission 2012 targets. This has welcomed numerous global companies to establish their operations in India under the famous PPP (public-private partnership) programs. Additional massive capital investment is further required over the subsequent years with the countrys power requisite expected to touch 800,000 MW by 2031-32. Future prospects Due to the influx of foreign companies, and the ramping up of operations by domestic companies, the industry is experiencing a hiring spike. New graduates would be advised to seek an initial position in one of the larger companies as there will be specific training courses and more opportunities for someone starting out. Given the breadth of the power industry, it is possible to work with a range of different technologies and disciplines depending upon your preferences.
All of the large power-generation companies are looking for graduates and apprentices in a range of disciplines. Degrees in engineering (mechanical, electrical or civil), science (physics, chemistry or mathematics) and even IT or business studies are required. In addition, work experience is a big advantage.
