IPPAI IS A THINK TANK WHICH SEEKS OUT OF THE BOX IDEAS FOR POWER SECTOR
IPPAI was set up as a not-for-profit association shortly after the Government of India opened the power sector to private industry. Since its inception as an independent body in 1994, IPPAI’s aim has been to provide a neutral platform for the examination of issues critical to the development of the power sector in India, to discuss energy policy and to focus on strategic, financial, legal, regulatory and technical issues in the power, oil, gas and allied sectors with a prime focus on independent power producers.
EXAMINE
IPPAI is able to take up pioneering positions on issues that the industry grapples with and seek solutions to these in a collaborative manner. We keep track of the latest policies and regulatory trends to ensure success in this volatile emerging market where policy changes and political uncertainty impinge on the success or failure of project development.
ENGAGE
IPPAI provides an engaging interface between players in the energy sector, policymakers (central and state level), electricity boards, financial institutions, ministries, power developers, Indian and multinational companies, equipment suppliers, EPC contractors and consultants.
EMPOWER
IPPAI’s neutral disposition enables it to interact with regulators from a position of strength and provide cutting-edge information on developments in the emerging market.

It’s an amazing place to really share thoughts and meet so many of them all over India and sometimes from several other countries all at once. From that perspective, I think it’s something very special about that retreat."
