Based on our long-term economic forecasts of India's power system, we expect renewable energy sources (including hydro) can supply 75% of India's total electricity needs by 2050. Solar and wind are expected to supply a third each of the total power demand. The share of coal will drop to just 14% in 2050 from 75% in 2017.
India's domestic coal consumption from Coal India (CIL) and Singareni Collieries Company (SCCL), India's largest coal miners, stood at 644 MnT in FY20, 5% lower than the previous year, with 80% being consumed by the power sector. The total coal consumption in India stood at 972 million tonnes (MnT) in FY20, with a growth rate of 0.3%YoY.
Coal's contribution to electricity generation in India fell for the second straight year in 2020, marking a departure from decades of growth in coal-fired power.
