Introduction
Andhra Pradesh, a major constituent of the southern grid, was one of the pioneer states to undertake power sector reforms in the country, which it began as early as in 1998. Andhra Pradesh Power Generation Corporation Limited (APGENCO) came into existence in 1999, following the unbundling of the erstwhile Andhra Pradesh State Electricity Board into six entities to focus on the core operations of power generation, transmission and distribution.
The genco has come a long way since the state’s bifurcation in 2014, and has played a key role in making the state power surplus. At the time, the state was grappling with a power deficit of 22.4 MUs per day; however, now Andhra Pradesh has transformed itself into a power-surplus state through consistent capacity addition in the conventional and renewable energy segments contributed by APGENCO. The company’s installed base has increased to more than 5.2 GW, of which 600 MW was added in March 2018, with the commissioning of a thermal power project. The genco is now gearing up to add another 3 GW to its portfolio by 2021-22.
