This category covers privately owned companies that generate electricity from coal, lignite and gas-fired plants and sell it to state distribution utilities and bulk buyers under long-term contracts or on power exchanges. Thermal plants supply round-the-clock power. They help keep the grid stable when solar and wind output falls, and meet peak evening demand from homes, offices and factories.
