Operations - The year in review
Economic Outlook:
The global economic landscape navigated a complex set ofconditions during Financial Year 2025-26. Evolving tradepolicies tested the adaptability of businesses and supplychains worldwide. While these developments introducednear-term volatility, the moderation in tariff escalations thatemerged over the course of the year offered some stabilizationand opened space for renewed confidence in global traderelationships. Global developments underscored the criticalrole of diversified sourcing strategies and proactive planningin maintaining operational stability and supporting sustainedperformance across key sectors.1
In the energy sector, demand for electricity is expected toremain strong through 2030, driven by increasing electrificationof economies and broader adoption of electricity acrosssectors. Global electricity demand is forecast to increase atan average annual rate of 3.6% over the 2026-2030 period,supported by rising consumption from industry, electricvehicles, air conditioning, and data centers. Worldwide,electricity demand grew by 3% year-on-year in 2025, andemerging economies continue to remain the main pillar ofdemand growth, accounting for nearly 80% of additionalelectricity consumption through 2030, with China, India, andSoutheast Asia at the forefront.2
India's energy sector is poised to experience significantgrowth, with electricity demand continuing a strong upwardtrajectory. In India, while coal continues to play a role in theenergy mix, the country is strategically balancing its focuson renewable energy alongside the need to meet growingenergy requirements. Coal production reached a record 1000million tonnes for the second consecutive year, with adequatestocks at power plants supporting energy security amid risingsummer power demand. Renewable energy capacity hascrossed 250 GW and now accounts for nearly half of India'stotal installed capacity of around 520 GW. The Ministry ofEnvironment, Forest and Climate Change's revision of fluegas desulphurization installation norms for thermal powerstations has provided greater regulatory clarity while enablingcontinued reliable baseload supply alongside progressiveemission reduction. India continues to maintain its target ofachieving 500 GW of non-fossil fuel capacity, reinforcing adiversified and resilient energy mix.34
At GE Power India Limited, the financial year 2025-26reinforced our strategic focus on high-margin, cash-accretiveopportunities with shorter cash conversion cycles and acontinued emphasis on core services and asset-light models.This approach has strengthened our operational resilienceand positioned the Company well to support India's evolvingpower sector needs.
During FY26, the Company secured a series of significantorders, underscoring its strong ongoing performance anddeep integration within India's power infrastructure sector.The contracts include H430 million order from NTPC forthe supply of generator parts at the Talcher site in Odishaand 500 MW generator stator repair from Monnet Power.The strategy continues to focus on providing advancedenergy solutions, executing efficient part replacements, andstrengthening strategic partnerships with key domestic powergeneration entities.
Looking ahead, the Company is focused on continued growth inits core services segment, selective participation in equipmentupgrade opportunities from India's large thermal renovationpipeline, and a measured approach to FGD equipment supply(EP) rather than full EPC undertakings. With a focused portfolio,improving margins, and a healthy order backlog, GE PowerIndia Limited is well positioned to serve the country's growingand evolving power sector.
The Company remained focused on strengthening its Servicesbusiness through continued investments in New ProductIntroduction (NPI) initiatives. These strategic investments haveenhanced the Company's differentiation in the market andstrengthened its ability to deliver superior value to customers.The execution center in Noida, along with a robust supply chainnetwork across India and globally, underpins the Company'soperational capabilities, enabling efficient service deliverywhile reinforcing its commitment to quality and reliability.
During the year, the Company expanded its OperationalExcellence philosophy into commercial functions throughthe Commercial Growth Excellence initiative. By applyingLean tools such as Value Stream Mapping, Process Mapping,and Daily Management, the Company improved capacity,enhanced product depth, and optimized costs. These initiativescontributed to approximately 50% growth in the other OEMmarket segment.
The Company's unique capabilities in emergency generatorrepair, both on the shop floor and on-site, enabled it to supportcustomers across 13 plant units. This contributed to a reductionin generation loss by approximately 2 billion units of electricity(which is equivalent to approximately continuously generatingpower from a 250 MW Generator for a year) and improvedthe availability of these units to the grid by 7%.
