NTPC just hit a big milestone: it has crossed 90 GW of installed capacity. This boost came after testing a new 800 MW unit at its Patratu project, a joint venture with Jharkhand Bijli Vitran Nigam Ltd.
NTPC now runs plants all over India and still has about 32 GW more under construction.
NTPC aims 149 GW by 2032
Looking forward, NTPC wants to ramp up to 149 GW by 2032, and it is putting a lot of focus on renewables, aiming for 60 GW from sources like solar and wind.
In FY26 alone, it added over 5,000 MW of green energy.
It is also exploring cool tech like green hydrogen, battery storage, and waste-to-energy projects for cleaner power in the future.
