Industries have their own DG sets to generate power in case state power is not available. This power generators are known as captive generation
I saw the question and came here hoping for a answer and not to answer
Power transmission is the movement of energy from its place of generation to a location where it is applied to performing useful work.
It is the operation of generation facilities to produce energy at the lowest cost to reliably supply power to customers, recognizing operational restrictions of generation and transmission facilities.
Transformers are used to step up or step down electricity as it moves from the point of generation to the point of consumption.
The fixed or mechanically switched reactors may be used for the absorption or generation of reactive power, the amount of reactive power produced is fixed and the response time is slow.
1. Meaning of Captive Power Plant Captive Power Plants are power plants including Generation Sets, normally established by an industry to meet its own requirements.

Non-captive power generation refers to electricity production that is not consumed directly by the facility or entity generating it. Instead, this power is fed into the larger grid for distribution to various consumers. This type of generation often involves independent power producers who operate power plants that sell electricity to utilities or through power purchase agreements. It contrasts with captive generation, where the electricity generated is exclusively used by the producer.
It seems there might be some confusion here. As mentioned, "captive power" refers to power generation set up by an organization for its exclusive use. The term "captive load" is not commonly used in this context. If you're referring to something else, feel free to clarify, and I'd be happy to help further!
it refers to the generation from units setup by the industry or its exclusive consumption
i think it has to do with off grid electricity generation
When there is a huge demand of power and people feel generating electricity is cheaper than purchasing it, Captive power plants are made. Excess generation of CPP can be sold through grid. On the other hand Independent power plants are made for supplying to grid only.
The public sector monopolizes the power generation in major chunk of the emerging markets
use of MHD generator's concept in power generation will lead the power sector to increase the efficiency to approx.80%,specially for thermal power plants whose efficiency lies in 35-40%. as we are knowing that,In MHD power generation kinetic energy or thermal energy is directly converted to electrical energy and also it has no moving parts.so,it is more advantageous.
The basis of differentiation is end user. A thermal power plant produces electricity to sell the same to different end users through grid. But, in case of a captive thermal power plant generation of electricity generally is to meet the demand of power by the parent industry. For e.g. an Alumunium smelter plant requires huge quntity of elctric energy to operate. To secure undisrupted source of energy it may set up its own power plant which in turn can be termed as the captive power plant. But, in certain cases excess electricity can be sold to the market.
Indraprastha Power Generation was created in 2002.
The population of Ontario Power Generation is 2,007.
