Power generation technologies have also kept pace. Through old technologies like steam, hydro and Nuclear
Turbine have progressed to dizzying levels, newer “clean technologies’’ like wind & solar have also gained a major
share of the grid in many countries, like India. There is now an ongoing debate both in favor of and against these
clean technologies like. These are characterized by higher capital investment & longer pay back periods. Also these
are site specific &always cannot be set up near consumption centers. The paper dwells on these advanced
Technologies so alternatives to the conventional one. Considering the high capital cost involved in new generation
“clean Technologies”[1] developing countries like India having an abundance of cheap fossil fuel reserves have to
give a major thrust to improvement in fossil-fired power technologies. Hydro power (Renewable energy where
power is created by the movement of large quantities of water) generation in India started in 1897 when 200KW
hydro-station was first commissioned at Darjeeling. [6] The Sidrapong Hydel power station located at the foot-hills
of Arya tea Estate at an altitude of 3,600 ft (1,100 m) and 12 Km from Darjeeling town. The first plant consisted of
two 65Kw Crompton-Brunton single-Phase, 2300 volts and 83.3hertz alternators coupled with two Gunther’s
turbine. India’s first Hydo-Electrinic power station with 2x65KW capacity was commissioned on 10th November
1897 by C.C Stevens. It is a noteworthy fact that the first power utility run on commercial basis for use of general
public in India was developed in public sector under state patronage. This was followed by the 4.5 Mega watt
hydroelectric power station near sivasamudram falls In Mandya District of the Cauvery River in Karnataka, in south
India was the first major power station in India owned by few British companies. The Hydro Electric power station
of the sivasamudram is the first of its kind in Asia and was established in 1902 by Mysore dewan sir K.Seshadri
Iyer. And from here power was supplied to Bangalore the first city to get power in India and also Kolar gold field
mines, including Mysore, In India the Annual hydroelectric production is 115.6 (T W h)
