Abstract:
This paper is mainly focused on to analyze the causal relationship between the electricity and economic growth. The theoretical aspects and also empirical studies have discussed here.OLS regression analysis has been used. The secondary data have been analyzed. The relationship between the private thermal power generation and the GDP firstly discussed on the theoretical background and after that we have tried to explain the relationship in the Indian context. In electricity there are many segments, but we are mainly focused on thermal power because of it's larger share in total electricity generation. We have tried to focus on private sector thermal power generation due to the reason share of the private generation growing rapidly. Lastly, we find that there is strong positive relation between the thermal power generation and the economic growth rate of Indian economy.
