    Captive power generation allows industries to set up private power plants to generate electricity primarily for their own use. The Electricity Act 2003 defines captive generation and allows for the sale of surplus power. Key points of the captive power policy are: 1) Industries can construct private power plants and dedicated transmission lines to meet their own electricity needs and sell surplus power. 2) Electricity from captive plants can be transmitted through the grid subject to transmission availability. Any disputes will be settled by regulatory commissions. 3) Captive generation facilitates industry growth and employment while meeting power demands through surplus capacity sales.
