The government's 12th five-year plan for 2012-17 targeted the addition of 94 GWe over the period, costing $247 billion. Total installed capacity at the end of November 2021 was 392 GWe, of which nuclear accounted for 6.78 GWe (1.7%), according to the Ministry of Power. There is an acute demand for more reliable power supplies, though early in 2019 India was set to achieve 100% household electricity connection. In July 2021 maximum demand reached 201 GWe according to the Power System Operation Corporation. In actual terms, between 20, primary energy consumption from fossil fuels is expected to increase by 120%. It predicts that the country’s energy mix will evolve slowly to 2040, with fossil fuels accounting for 79% of demand in 2040, down from 92% in 2017. The 2019 edition of BP’s Energy Outlook projected India’s energy consumption rising by 156% between 20. India's dependence on imported energy resources and the inconsistent reform of the energy sector are challenges to satisfying rising demand. Source: International Energy Agency and The World Bank.
