Business Insights

China is the world’s second largest consumer of energy, consuming more than 11% of the world’s total electricity consumption. It is second to only to the US in electricity consumption. China has in excess of 792,530 MW of installed electricity generating capacity with new capacity additions on an almost daily basis. Coal is the main source of fuel for electricity production in China, but recently, the demand for natural gas has also increased in the power sector, mainly because of environmental reasons. In the past few years, China’s production and consumption have increased rapidly.

India is presently the sixth largest electricity generating country in the world and accounts for about 4% of the world's total electricity generation. It is also currently ranked sixth in terms of annual electricity consumption, accounting for about 3.5% of the world's total annual electricity consumption.

Japan’s power industry is divided in to ten regions and each region is dominated by one privately owned, integrated power company, each of which acts as a regional monopoly in its own area. The largest of these is the Tokyo Electric Power Company (TEPCO). These companies account for more than three quarters of Japan’s electricity capacity and also control the country’s regional transmission and distribution infrastructure. Other players in the electricity market are the Japan Atomic Power Company (JAPC), which operates three nuclear power plants, and the Electric Power Development Company (known as J-Power), which operates 16GW of hydroelectric and thermal power plants.
