Prime Minister NarendraModi stated that India has witnessed path-breaking reforms in the power sector during the last eight years to the extent that the country is not only electricity surplus but is also a power-exporting nation.
PM Modi on July 30 laid the foundation stone of multiple green energy projects of the National Thermal Power Corporation (NTPC) via video conferencing.
The Prime Minister also launched the revamped distribution sector scheme aimed at improving the financial health of power distribution companies.
This is significant in the sense that the mounting debt of many state power distribution companies is a significant portion of the overall debt of the state.
PM Modi launched green energy projects worth Rs 5,200 crore of the NTPC via video conferencing, inaugurated the 100MW Ramagundam floating solar project in Telangana and the 92MW Kayamkulam floating solar project in Kerala.
