A report by KPMG forecasts that India's energy needs would grow at 6.4 to 8 per cent to achieve the projected economic growth rate of 8-10 per cent, translating into a five-fold increase in India's energy requirement over the next 25 years. Resource augmentation and growth in energy supply have not kept pace with increasing demand and, therefore, India continues to face serious energy shortages. Progress in policy and reform has been conducive to private investment, and the sector still requires investment to the tune of 120 - 150 billion USD over the next five years to enable capacity and technology upgrades. Private interest in sectors like Coal, Power, Oil & Natural Gas and renewable energy sources has shown significant improvement, as also in the nuclear sector.

Growth is accompanied by inherent challenges including the demand for additional manpower. Managing this need is crucial to the health of Industry.
