India's largest power company NTPC plans to invest a massive Rs 2,25,000 crore (Rs 2.25 trillion) in the next seven years in capacity expansion to become a 75,000-MW entity, company's chairman and managing director R S Sharma said on Tuesday.
NTPC, which has a production capacity of a little over 30,000 MW annually, constitutes 19 per cent of the country's total installed capacity of 1,55,000 MW.
For the additional capacity generation, NTPC is planning about 9,000 MW through hydroelectric sources, 2,000 MW through nuclear and 1,000 MW through renewable energy resources by 2017. This would make NTPC one of most diversified companies in the country in terms of fuel usage.
