Indian power companies are reducing their production capacity because of coal supply crisis. Group of ministers discussed the problem in this year & they tried to resolve it but they reached on no decision. In that meeting, they highlighted the future coal shortages particularly for all those projects, which are specially made in the five-year period.
About 80,000 megawatts (MW) of capacity is currently under construction in India. Most of the capacity are depending upon coal. In addition, more projects will have to start construction if the power ministry is to meet its target on time and of adding 100,000 MW of capacity in the next five years.
Domestic coal production is facing problem because of the difficulty in environmental approval like acquiring land and convincing people move on other mining site from their previous site.
If power generators will cope up with all these problems then they can easily increase their production capacity.
