Considering the massive development in India's infrastructure and real estate sectors, demand for electricity is anticipated to nearly double over the next five years. India's current electricity consumption of approximately 600 TWh annually is likely to surpass 1,000 TWh annually by 2020.

Lucintel's research indicates that, with a forecast population growth rate of 1.3% annually and 8% GDP growth for the next decade, India's per capita income is expected to double, leading to greater energy consumption. With an 8% GDP growth scenario and government plans and policies, commercial energy needs are expected to increase to more than 2,100 Mtoe by 2031-32.
