Power Initiatives

Punjab is projected to become a power surplus state by 2013 Power Initiatives

The State Government is conscious of the fact that adequate, assured and reliable Power is key to the growth of Industry. State Government has undertaken setting up of new power projects at Rajpura, Gidderbaha, Talwandi Sabo and Goindwal Sahib which will make Punjab a power surplus state by 2012.

The new power plants are being promoted through Private Sector Participation on Build, Own, Operate basis.

In addition, the State proposes to develop 29 biomass power projects by 2010 and Asia's biggest solar power project in Hoshiarpur by Punjab Energy Development Agency to promote the development of non-conventional sources of energy.
