2. Steel & Power Sector: A Correlation
With continued growth in India’s infrastructure sector, the growth in power sector shall be
palpable, with expert estimates suggesting that for every one percent increase in GDP, power
generation would need to increase by one percent. The government, in its 12th Five Year Plan, has set
a target of adding 88,537 MW of power generation capacity with an estimated total fund requirement
of more than INR 13.55 lakh crore (USD 225 Billion) for power generation; transmission and
distribution.

Target Capacity Additions (in GW)
In FY17, the share of power sector (excluding renewable energy sources) in total steel
demand is expected to rise by more than 50 percent from FY12
Steel aficionados understand that steel shall be an indispensable input for green-field as well
brownfield power plant capacities, owing to high capital investments in power sector. This is
because the application of steel is widespread in the power plant; from boilers; turbines;
transformers; generators; power transmission towers and cables to a variety of components
used in renewable energy technologies such as solar and wind energy.

3. Structural Steel
Structural steel remains the default material in building power
plant equipments. Its major application in a power project is in
building turbines, generators, boilers, pumping
stations, cooling towers, control panels etc.
Reinforcement Steel
Reinforcement steels include rods and bars and are primarily
used for reinforcement of concrete structure.
Pipes & Tubes
Seamless tubes and pipes are used in boilers and heat
exchangers, areas where a significant amount of fluid transfer
is required.
Electrical Steel
Electrical Steel primarily comprises of two steel products i.e.
Cold Rolled Grain Oriented (CRGO) Steel and Cold Rolled
Non Grain Oriented (CRNO) Steel.
Steel pipes and tubes comprise of about 15%
of the total steel requirement of a thermal
power plant.
CRGO steel finds applications in
manufacturing power transformer cores, and
CRNO steel is suitable for moving parts in
generators and motors.
As per CEA norms for Steel used in hydro
power sector - 93 tons of reinforcement steel
are used in per MW of hydropower project.
Plates and sheets comprise of about 40% of
the total steel requirement of a coal Base
thermal power plant.
Assessment of power sector steel demand essentially
requires an in-depth study of the electrical equipment (EE)
market of India as EE manufacturers are the major direct
finished steel consumers with product sales largely
dependent on power sector growth plans.
The envisioned growth of power sector for 12th Plan period
is expected to entail exponential demand for electrical
equipment. Presently, the domestic electrical equipment
industry is worth INR 120,200 crores (UDS 20 Billion) with
1/4th share captured by generation equipment -
Boiler, Turbines & Generators and the remaining by T&D.
