The Power Sector Skill Council (PSSC) would cover the following segments jointly
referred as Power Industry::
1- Power Sector: Electricity Generation (Thermal, Hydro, Gas, Nuclear), Transmission,
Power System Operations and Distribution.
2- Renewable Energy Sector.
3- Power Equipment Manufacturing Sector.
Broad objective of the Council are to work towards development of uniformity and
standardization of various skill types / job roles through development of National
Occupational Standards (NOS), laying emphasis on building competency / outcome related
occupational standards rather than designation driven job descriptions.
The PSSC will create a dynamic labour market information system (LMIS) to keep track
of the labour market, will identify skill gaps, and frame occupational standards
in order to facilitate development of practical and high quality training content.
