With an unusual heat wave hitting the country and the demand for power going up, India's thermal plants were not up to the challenge to produce more power, as they faced a severe coal shortage. Despite there being more than enough installed capacity of power, why does this keep happening?

My father works for coal India and quit often we have a discussion that how power corporations like ntpc and other power corporations are defaulting on amount due to them.
*quite
Sepling wrong
ab delhi m free m bijli doge to kaise chalega
My father works in NTPC Dadri power plant. I too had discussion with him and he said its not them but the government and politicians that led to this situation
@@harshsaini2494 people in India always think that electricity is a fundamental so they actually don't care much about paying their bills on time. Plus these subsidies makes the problem worse.
Recently a senior IAS officer in mining department in jharkhand was arrested and ED required counting machine to count the amount of cash.
One came yesterday only.. the MNREGA funds case.. but yeah, such is the nexus that everyone is involved
@@BisboWorld please make a video on the ED raid in Jharkhand
There would be many such IAS and corrupt people in the states like Jharkhand and Bihar where there is no development. People like these are eating it away like termites.
Privatisation of Discoms should be done on priority basis, it will minimize the losses faced by discoms.
Very well explained Bisbo. The point is we don’t need more power plants, we need more efficient versions of Coal India and Indian Railways…hope the Dedicated Freight Corridors make a difference in the years to come.
Thanks Prithviraj.
New corridors, plus more wagons are coming as well. Hope doesn't repeat
no power cuts in Bangalore. last 1 month never had cut more than 5 minutes. may be rural areas. we need more nuke plants
Only 1% privatisation (On Lease) was done by Modi Ji and it reduced corruption by huge percentages. As a result those who were corrupt started blaming Modi Government of Selling the government companies to Ambani and Adani. But in reality Ambani and Adani are playing very important and great part in the development and management of the country.
Thank you Reliance JIO, Tata Group, Mahindra, and Adani Group.
true bro i think we should privatize every loss making industry in India , just look at passport seva under tata so fast and quick , we must privatize majority of government agencies to reduce corruptions the think is ambani and tata or adani will make money but they will invest it again and again into the economy rather than money going into corrupt officers who will just save it and use their money for their children education in foreign counties
@@adi-uc1ug Yes, correct. And since it will be a lease, therefore the ownership of the stakes won't be transferred to any party, but it will stay with the government. Its a nice strategy😇.
And at the same time 90-99% control will be with the government only.
@@theamericanchannel3921 yes it will help both private and public sector as well as invite international companies to invest in Indian govt owned companies
Yes modiji saviour of india
This is the bisbo we love.. Hope to see this kind of content soon... Please donot go for those hours long compilations.. It will do more harm than good...
Power theft scene was hilarious and doubling capacity also
Nice to hear from you, Sidhartha. Thanks for your suggestion.
@@BisboWorld I feel.the same. Don't post long videos. 🙏
Those compilation are like nostalgia to mee
Very well explained, Thank you for this detailed information....
Glad to hear, Atharva 🙏
True its just a laziness by the goverment
Well, quite some mismanagement
And the influence of adani and greed of many individuals
On one hand China and it’s politicians think to develop their nation and have no power crisis . India on other hand can’t start a power nuclear plant due to cheap politics . India will remain poor for century’s . Worst thing is we can’t mine our own coal . Shameful
Democracy isn't an ideal system for a country with so many problems
Well Chinese totalitarian government has created its own set of problems like no freedom and A massive debt bubble, Ponzi scheme like infra sector which is collapsing and too much reliance on unsustainable model of growth ( debt based )
Democracy isn't best but certainly better than totalitarianism , the thing INDIA Needs is A Two party Federal government like USA, Britain, France etc or A 30 year Authoritarian government followed by Two party Federal government
Current Government is Certainly no doubt better than earlier coalition governments , Upa and congress didn’t have any vision ,only freebies and appeasement, Current one(bjp) although also gives freebies is certainly 10x better than congress in Development and Long term sustainability
@@helloworld.w6075 yes i think modi is good but he need to bring the country together but the opposite is taking place like religious issues, violence against women , unemployment, language issues. I think after the decline of congress there is no need for bjp to play religious politics they are already powerful enough to win for next 10-15 years guarantee. I think now modi must concentrate on these issues and change the economy for good and become the best leader in the history of india but i dont know as i am seeing many opposite things which he is doing right now
If you check north india most of the unemployment exists and poor infrastructure in cities . Most of the people are of no use to economy . Politics in every state no proper development goal . Govt should train them to work in some industries to make day to day goods like china does with its population . The reason all electronics are made in China . India sends the. As laborers in road building etc
Thank you Bisbo fr your great research and simple explanation. Truly amazing
In Tamil Nadu we have state power shortage minister Mr. Senthil Balaji, he deliberately shut down 3 reactors (by showing it as coal shortage) in Thoothukudi to create artificial power shortage, Now he is planning to import coal through which he can loot public money (from shipment of coal till it reaches power plants)
NPP is operated by Govt of India .
How can he stop production ?
State govts can switch it off because it is allocated to them by the centre
Bisbo is back,love u bisbo,great to see u with good content.Being a power professional this video is so relatable.
Thanks Nikhil
Thank you Nikhil.
Where do you work? Just curious.
Thanks for the informative video...I always wait for the next one!
Thanks Shiv. Nice to hear.
Nuclear reactors can only produce constant electricity which is not good in terms of demand fluctuation. They cannot change ther output accordingly.
It's costly too when compared to hydral and solar energy
Thorium.
What about rupee falling to its lowest and foresx reserve dropping to 600BILLION？
Wow as usual a comprehensive view of the issue based only on facts and NOT based on rumors.
Awesome vid. Excellent explanation!!
Thanks Hazel 🙏
excellent topic
solar power plants are the best bet for india. Storage of electricity can be done also by 1) pumped hydro or 2) by retaining heat in huge concrete blocks in an inert environment contained in a thermally insulated building. Currently their efficiency for the 2nd type has equivalent to a gas powered type with only a net difference 10-20%. Natural gas turbines have efficiencies between 50% to 60% as compared to coal power power plants with a measly 35-40% efficiency. So the second option is the energy storage solution which is reflected by the low $/MW. "just have a think" has a video on youtube .
Loved the video presentation and that limerick poem thing!!👏 👌 👍 😍
Was wondering why is this happening and here I found the perfect video explanation
Thank you 🙏
Very good poem at the end !! Keep up the good work !!
Thanks a lot 🙏🌹
Today the Center invokes sec 11 this will discourage future private sector investment in power sector that means we can expect more power cuts
Do we have the required grade of coal for powerplant? I don't think we have much anthracite reserves, we have stocks of lesser quality coal and hence we import.
For the future it's best we gradually transition to renewable and nuclear. This will also reduce pollution in Delhi and other cities.
Important points there, Vasanth.
back to back bisbo. great work
Thanks 🙏
good to have old vis back
Bisbo did a Good Job explaining India's Power Crisis .
Thanks Ranjit
I love u bro, Amazing work.
Thanks Nikhil 🌹
i think India should focus more on nuclear energy as it is one of the safest and most efficient source of energy. Just build a nuclear reactor in areas where no one lives. Since not many coastal states are under bjp, the govt will face to convince them
Let's see if plan to build 12 new reactors reaches fruition
There are woke environmentalist who file pit petitions even if BJP plans to build nuclear power plant on Moon.
Literally I'm seeing so much petitions to even stop construction of railway tracks.
@@piratedunknown9609 Those are foreign funded missionary NGOs.
Nuclear is a long term soultion. Nuclear cost more time and money. I think building 12 reactors isn't gooing cut it. I think in the long run India should focus on solar, may be I'm wrong. We might end up like Germany.
@@facon4233 Solar is not a replacement for coal plants. Solar/Wind etc are unreliable sources of energy. The grid requires a constant predictable source of electricity as the baseline. This can happen only by nuclear.
We need nuclear power, period.
Agreed , but nuclear waste is still a concern ,
@@jooedan Go for Thorium Reactors. Way better.
Wooow i was surprised to see that even though we have soo much of coal we are still lagging behind in the extraction aspect. Maybe the government should spend on the development/acquisition of newer and more efficient technologies rather than relying on imports and dishing out valuable forex.
Love Bisbo ♥️🤝🙏
🌹🙏
0:57 that small laugh at the end of "no pun intended" lol
I share many of your videos to spread in depth knowledge of problems facing in india. But somehow i feel BISBO videos need to reach more people. I request you to increase more short videos on youtube for intersting topics and then we can switch to long video 🙏
Thanks for your suggestion. We will brainstorm on it.
Luckily I haven't faced even a minute of power cut!!
Bisbo make video on rising heat wave
Please do a video on Silverline project in kerala.
Actually cut down on the population and bring other bills ...the root cause is done then . Pass bill over free bee's ... Eventually Everything will come under control
Thank u bisbo
🙏🌹
Coal india is also a monopoly, private mines were only allowed 2 years ago and they will take time to set up
Bhai coal non renewable source of energy hai .. Freebies hatane se sarkaar ko fayda hoga.. Koyla aur ni ban jaega
On grid solar is the solution but sate govt not giving subsidy
coal is to be purchased by Power generators.. there is no shortage of coal.. even imports of coal is because of other reasons...
At 8:23, you have the solution. It’s amazing how india is hell bent on socialism.
It's changing, albeit slowly
@@BisboWorld Slower than an old turtle.
its 2024 whats the status on nuclear plants?
Goverment should invest in nuclear
Indeed
yes that's the way forward because nuclear can severely boost our economy and help us transition to renewable resources quickly rather than relying on coal
@@adi-uc1ug yes
We can instead use the coal for the industrial complex of the nation which would be beneficial in capturing world markets and concentrating power
@@drewdurnilappreciationday1680 yes bro
Fantastic as always. Your voice sounds a little different. I hope you are doing OK.
Yeah. Thanks for the concern, Vikram.
2:08 😂😂😂 lol
Mr Bisbo please make a video on Jharkhand illegal mining case 🙏
We will think about this topic.
Why don't you have a patreon page?
Privatize the mining...invest in Nuclear and solar tech in the meantime. Private companies will ensure stability in the markets and bring equilibrium.
Nope all distribution n bill problems....IAS ips n politicians etc etc vvipd didn't want to pay electricity bills
2:13 what about tata power
I don't understand whatever happened to all that thorium reactor research... Thorium is the only solution currently. No other option.
Hey bisbo
Can you explain power theft?
Hi Venkat.. We will think about making a video on this separate topic
The only way out of this mess is through - Nuclear Energy.
And use Thorium Reactors for this purpose.
Power Gencos (Generation Companies) were facing a similar situation in 2002-03 like what today Discoms are facing. It was former PM Atal Bihari Vajpayee who at that time despite huge protests allowed Private Companies to enter the Genco business Pan India.
Honestly this was one of the key reasons which entirely revolutionized the entire Power Generation business in India & made us self sufficient.
Now a similar step needs to be taken by the Narendra Modi Govt as well to allow Private companies participation in Discom Business in order to make this sector more effective & efficient towards the needs of it's consumers & specially industries whose entire supply line depends on how regularly they're supplied with power.
This would likely be done through the Electricity Amendment Bill that will most likely be introduced in the Monsoon session this year. Please don't let anyone fool you on this. Government is not privatizing electricity boards as many political parties will claim once this law is passed, State Electricity Boards even now as the name suggests come under State Govts. (so Central Govt. has no say in privatizing them) but Central Govt. is just allowing Private Companies to enter Distribution Business to supply electricity only to those who opt for it. Ofcourse the cost might be higher than the electricity supplied by State Boards but then they'll ensure you with regular supply, timely maintenance etc. & the best thing is that you can always opt for State Boards delivering electricity at lower costs if you feel like. Most importantly this is good for Industries in our country as any industry desires to set up a manufacturing unit in a country which can supply it with regular power, water & land & labour at cheap rates. So support this reform.
my area haven't faced in any crisis so far
Lucky you Sayan or Discoms are doing good in your area
I don't understand load shedding isn't happening anywhere what's the hype about then?
It's certainly reducing now as adequate coal reaches plants, but power outages continue
You are definately quite privileged.
@@rohan14040 not at all I live in tier city called varanasi and I face 0 min of power outage during last 10 days same with relatives all over u.p.
Wait and see India will face Sri Lanka's situation within 5 years.
Looks like you are wishing for it.
If you really understand why srilanka was down you would not comment on india.. India is no way in the state like Sri Lanka.
SL fall into this crisis by providing huge tax cuts to corporates in favour of election funding.
Modi is following a similar policy
@@ahmedinsamam6105 not really , if they could have export enough they would have survived but the guy killed agriculture industry by introducing organic farming and tourism declined due to COVID and attacks. The tax cut would have been good if done at right time

@@BisboWorld Ok. Now I got your point. It should've been expected to increase "to" 600GW daily by 2030. Otherwise it looks like consumption will increase 600GW every day till 2030.
