The correct answer is: A) Thermal power.<\/p>\n

Thermal power is the primary source of power generation in Madhya Pradesh, accounting for 75% of the state’s electricity generation. The state has a number of coal-fired power plants, as well as some gas-fired power plants. Thermal power is a relatively inexpensive source of electricity, but it is also a major source of air pollution.<\/p>\n

Hydropower is the second-largest source of power generation in Madhya Pradesh, accounting for 15% of the state’s electricity generation. The state has a number of hydroelectric dams, including the Indira Sagar Dam and the Sardar Sarovar Dam. Hydropower is a clean and renewable source of electricity, but it can have a significant impact on the environment.<\/p>\n

Solar power is the third-largest source of power generation in Madhya Pradesh, accounting for 10% of the state’s electricity generation. The state has a number of solar power plants, and the government is promoting the development of solar power. Solar power is a clean and renewable source of electricity, but it is also relatively expensive.<\/p>\n

Wind power is a small but growing source of power generation in Madhya Pradesh, accounting for less than 1% of the state’s electricity generation. The state has a number of wind farms, and the government is promoting the development of wind power. Wind power is a clean and renewable source of electricity, but it is also relatively expensive.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
