India’s invisible megawatts: How captive and rooftop power finally forced themselves into the grid conversation
Feb 04:
8The discussion exposes a quiet governance gap: CEIs, SLDCs, DISCOMs, and developers all hold fragments of the truth, but no one owns the full picture. The proposed data architecture-pilots, smart meters, AMR systems, and developer-led platforms-signals a shift from ad-hoc reporting to quasi-real-time surveillance. Yet beneath the technical optimism lie unresolved cost burdens, data ownership questions, and regulatory exposure that could reshape captive economics and rooftop solar’s grid relationship.

India’s coal price index hides a widening split between steel and power fuel costs
Feb 04:
8This split suggests that steel sector fuel costs are firming while power sector fuel pressure is easing slightly. For power utilities and regulators, the stable headline index masks grade-level shifts that could affect FPPCA calculations and station-wise variable cost trends.

CERC Updates
Feb 04:
1) CERC resets Southern grid strengthening tariffs after capital cost corrections
8The ruling reinforces CERC’s stance on disciplined cost norms, especially around spares and deferred liabilities.
2) CERC trims reactor asset base, resets northern grid charges for new control period
8The ruling reinforces CERC’s hard line on capital discipline before the new tariff block begins. It also signals continued scrutiny of legacy cost padding in mature interstate assets
3) CERC clears litigation-driven cost surge in Southern grid strengthening asset
8The move reinforces that legal risk in transmission projects ultimately migrates into regulated revenue streams.
4) CERC locks revised tariff path for Wardha fault-control transmission upgrade
8It signals that even non-capacity-augmenting works are subject to full tariff scrutiny as grid complexity rises.
5) CERC resets Powergrid Jharkhand–Bengal transmission tariff across two regulatory cycles
8The decision signals continued emphasis on prudence review over mechanical tariff pass-throughs.
6) CERC resets ERSS-VII tariffs, clears Rs 26 lakh carry-over costs into new cycle
8The regulatory signal is one of continuity - no reopening of old disputes, only structured pass-through of verified residuals
7) CERC resets Northeast grid upgrade tariffs, lowers past charges, sets leaner next cycle
8The broader signal is a regulator intent on compression of transmission carrying costs while preserving equity returns.
8) CERC trims legacy tariff base, stabilises spare asset charges for new control period
8The order signals a continued regulatory preference for cost containment in legacy grid assets rather than expansion-driven recovery. It also reinforces discipline on post-COD capital claims.
9) CERC resets ERSS-XVII tariffs as Powergrid costs move into new control period
8The ruling signals continuity rather than reform - but locks in cost visibility for the next five years.
10) CERC resets NERSS-II tariffs, clears legacy dues and locks five-year cost recovery
8The ruling reinforces regulatory preference for financial closure discipline over fresh capex expansion in mature transmission schemes.
11) CERC resets Western Region transmission costs, merges nine grid assets for new tariff cycle
8The regulator has reaffirmed cost-plus transmission recovery but with sharper reconciliation of contractor liabilities and delayed capitalisation flows.
12) CERC clears petition revision but locks in tight January filing deadlines
8The move underscores a regulatory preference for procedural discipline over timeline extensions in active generation tariff matters. For the generator, the revision opportunity comes with limited room for delay or iterative correction.

Miscellaneous Update: Part I
Feb 04:
1) Coal Ministry opens door to insurance bonds as mining performance security
8The change affects competitive tariff-linked coal blocks, including projects supplying ultra mega power plants.
2) Coal ministry lifts December index as coking grades outpace thermal benchmarks
8The direction, however, signals that industrial fuel markets are regaining pricing strength faster than the power sector.
3) Khavda Phase-II link goes live, unlocking 4.5 GW renewable evacuation capacity
8At the system level, it signals continued prioritisation of high-capacity RE corridors over conventional expansion.
4) India’s smart metering drive crosses 5.46 crore installs but mega states lag
8The disparity signals emerging pressure points in funding flows, vendor capacity allocation, and state-level reform readiness.
5) G-DAM volumes rise in January as buyer mix flips and C&I selling accelerates
8The pattern suggests portfolio and procurement repositioning rather than a documented operational disruption.
6) Eastern coal fleet captures SCED gains as southern units absorb deeper backing down in December
8The pattern suggests a system shift where eastern coal economics dominated real-time optimisation, pushing southern units down the merit stack.
7) RVPN defends asset carve-out as RTIL seeks separate transmission licence
8The outcome may signal how Rajasthan handles future structural unbundling within its grid infrastructure.
8) RVPN defends transmission demerger, pushes tariff questions to future proceedings
8For DISCOMs and consumers, the financial ripple effects remain undefined at this stage. The Commission now faces a decision on whether to separate structural approval from tariff accountability.
9) Jodhpur Discom corrects billing linkage for November FPPAS recovery
8It also reflects regulatory sensitivity around billing period integrity under the RERC framework.
10) Coal still anchors Rajasthan dispatch as one major NTPC unit shows cost stress
8For Rajasthan SLDC and state utilities, the data signals continued dependence on central coal allocations while gas remains structurally sidelined.
11) Kerala’s state utility posts profit on government support amid mounting regulatory gap
8The tension between political tariff restraint and financial sustainability is becoming more visible.

Regulatory Updates: Part I
Feb 04:
1) Kerala regulator forces 24×7 supply pledge and auto-compensation regime
8Consumers, especially commercial and institutional users, stand to gain enforceable uptime guarantees for the first time.
2) Kerala regulator trims Infopark costs, rewards loss reduction in FY25 reset
8The outcome signals a regulatory tilt toward efficiency-based incentives rather than blanket cost approvals.
3) TNERC orders TANGEDCO to clear legacy interest dues, blocks instalment relief
8Beyond the immediate financial hit, the ruling reinforces payment discipline expectations in state-backed renewable procurement contracts.
4) TNERC blocks TNPDCL review after APTEL appeal shifts jurisdiction
8The order underscores how procedural missteps can override substantive tariff arguments. It also signals tightening discipline in how regulatory remedies are sequenced.
5) TNERC orders TANGEDCO to pay delayed solar deposit with 12% interest
8The decision signals that regulatory tolerance for payment deferrals is narrowing.
6) Regulator blocks sub-threshold 33 kV supply, reinforces voltage discipline
8The ruling signals that future load projections cannot substitute for present eligibility.
7) JSERC enforces mandatory bank guarantee rule on captive power users
8The decision signals a tightening regulatory stance on captive verification, shifting risk from utilities to industrial generators.
8) Jharkhand regulator locks captive plants into upfront financial security regime
8The ruling shifts captive power from a compliance declaration model toward a pre-emptive risk-secured framework.
9) JSERC clears 40-year Dibang hydro supply deal for DVC
8The regulator’s nod reinforces hydro’s role as both reliability insurance and compliance currency in the evolving RPO framework.
10) JSERC clears Rs 6.9 crore ash handling capex for CFBC compliance
8It also shows regulators prioritising continuity of plant operations where ash logistics threaten shutdown risk.
11) JSERC blocks single-point steel supply, mandates dual metering compliance
8Distribution utilities gain regulatory backing to enforce technical tariff segregation. The order signals a tightening stance on industrial metering discipline statewide.

Power Committee Updates
Feb 04:
1) West Bengal’s reactive bill collapses - but the pool imbalance doesn’t: Bihar, Kahalgaon and Odisha quietly take over the VAR cashflow
8The pool is becoming a mirror of grid voltage management - and it’s reflecting instability pockets, not average performance.
2) The ER grid’s “quiet instability”: DSM pool stays positive, but the real stress is migrating into inter-regional settlement and dispatch-side make-good mechanisms
8The structural tension is clear: DSM looks “settled”, but scarcity is being priced through ancillary and commitment constructs, creating a two-layer discipline regime-payments move, but reliability signals are bleeding into other accounts.
3) NER’s allocation envelope tightens in Jan: the headline isn’t one plant-it’s the shrinking “total power” canvas and what it does to discipline
8January reads like an allocation stress-test-not because the sheet screams with exceptions, but because the macro ceiling falls and every sub-allocation becomes a potential grievance point.
4) WRPC’s pool flipped from SCUC-dominant surplus to shortfall-driven stress - even as the same winners kept collecting
8And the repeated behavioural issue is the persistence of large negative contributors (multiple VSTPS units, Sipat, NSPCL) - the same names, same direction signature that looks less like noise and more like a structural operating posture.
5) WR’s DSM bill didn’t “improve”-it collapsed: inter-regional stress cooled, and renewables stopped bleeding (for now)
8Operationally, the risk isn’t this week’s lower bill-it’s the volatility signal: the account shows WR can swing from heavy net payable to near-flat in seven days, which usually means the control problem has shifted-not vanished.
6) One flagship block stayed rock-solid-while another faceplanted to 45% availability, forcing the month’s ‘virtual’ balancing to do the heavy lifting in the West’s REA-based ABT
8Net-net, the grid’s meaning for the latest period is uncomfortable: operational stability is being maintained-but the reliability margin is concentrating, and concentration is what breaks first when the next unit trips.
7) Chhattisgarh’s VAR shock flips polarity- and quietly rewrites Western Region’s “discipline map” in a single week
8And the structural tension remains: state-level pay/receive can flip fast, but the persistent payer set (especially Gujarat) suggests deeper VAR management and network/reactive control constraints that weekly settlement alone won’t cure.
8) January’s scheduling story in NRPC: the virtual stack flipped from “support” to “stress”-with TRAS/SCUC turning into a visible corrective hand across flagship NR stations
8The repeated behavioural issue is that the virtual stack keeps appearing as a balancing tool rather than an exception-suggesting structural reliance on optimisation layers where beneficiary discipline should have carried the load.
9) Southern Region’s reactive pool tightens: net receivable jumps-driven by Karnataka + Andhra, while Tamil Nadu flips from payer to major claimant
8This is the kind of weekly pattern that quietly rewires incentives: reactive discipline becomes a tradable edge-until the pool starts signalling “persistent winners” and “repeat offenders” with uncomfortable consistency.
10) From Telangana tailwind to Tamil Nadu windfall: the DSM pool flips its biggest payer/receiver map in one week
8Week-on-week, the Southern Region’s DSM story isn’t “volatility”-it’s a clean redistribution of who is funding discipline and who is cashing it.

Market Round-up
Feb 04:
1) RTM blows out over DAM as net exports shrink during the morning ramp
8RTM MCP hit Rs 8.51/kWh at Hour 7 (DAM at the same hour: Rs 5.73/kWh) on 2026-02-03.
Inference: All-India net exchange flipped “less export” as RTM spiked (from -2,020 MW at 00:00 to -1,294 MW at 07:00), tightening the system right when demand jumped above 209 GW.
Why it matters: a ~Rs 2.77/kWh RTM–DAM basis at a peak hour is a direct procurement risk for RTM-exposed buyers and a stress-signal for balancing depth.
2) A second price regime hits at 18:00 as export cushion collapses again
8RTM MCP stepped up from Rs 4.37/kWh (17:45) to Rs 8.68/kWh (18:00) on 2026-02-03.
Inference: The jump lines up with net exchange moving sharply toward zero (export shrinking to ~-1.34 GW at 18:00), while frequency softened into 49.95–49.96 Hz by 18:30–18:45.
Why it matters: this is a clean “regime break” signature-buyers relying on late-day RTM cover face sudden cost shocks without an obvious corridor-constraint trigger.
3) “No ATC/(N-1) violations” masks a voltage problem at a solar hub
8The system reliability report shows 0 hours of ATC and (N-1) violations on major corridors for 2026-02-03.
Inference: Yet Bhadla II sat outside the IEGC voltage band for 17.71% of the day, a local stress that corridor indices don’t capture.
Why it matters: market participants can see “congestion-free” dashboards while still paying for voltage management risk that hits dispatch flexibility and renewable evacuation.
4) Ancillary SCUC volumes signal heavy balancing-even before you see the price
8SCUC schedules show SCUC-Up = 41,992 MWh and SCUC-Down = -41,991 MWh for 2026-02-03.
Inference: That “up/down symmetry” screams continuous re-balancing, consistent with the day’s sharp RTM basis events (morning and 18:00 step) rather than a single isolated disturbance.
Why it matters: when balancing energy is this large, RTM becomes the cost-pass-through channel; any liquidity thinning can turn routine balancing into headline volatility.
5) Big thermal outages sit in the background while buyers fight for RTM cover
8On 2026-02-02, multiple 660 MW units are listed under maintenance/forced categories (e.g., Jawaharpur STPP Unit-1 & Unit-2, Chhabra-II TPP Unit-6).
Inference: With large units unavailable entering 2026-02-03, the system has less thermal “shock absorber,” making net-exchange swings and balancing actions more price-visible in RTM.
Why it matters: outage-driven tightness doesn’t need a corridor violation to hurt-costs show up as RTM spikes and a wider intraday basis.
6) Smaller exchanges go dark-price discovery concentrates, volatility risk rises
8PXIL shows RTM MCP = Rs 10.00/kWh on 2026-02-02 with just 190 MWh scheduled; on 2026-02-03, PXIL RTM shows no trades.
Inference: HPX RTM snapshot lists zero bids and zero cleared volume even on 2026-02-03.
Why it matters: thin or absent trading outside the dominant venue reduces “pressure-release valves”-stress concentrates, and RTM spikes become harder to arbitrage away.
7) Rajasthan posts a positive UI day while running heavy thermal + solar-quiet imbalance risk
8In NR’s daily report for 2026-02-03, Rajasthan shows UI = +0.84 MU with generation dominated by thermal (152.02 MU) and sizable solar (43.81 MU).
Inference: A positive UI alongside high internal generation suggests schedule-tracking stress (forecast error or dispatch friction), which can spill into RTM procurement and balancing requirements.
Why it matters: even with zero reported shortage, persistent UI in large states is a cost-leak channel (DSM exposure) and a system-balancing burden.
8) Tamil Nadu shows a large negative UI despite big solar-curtailment or self-backdown signal
8In SR’s 2026-02-03 report, Tamil Nadu records Solar = 43.40 MU and UI = -4.62 MU (net under-drawal versus schedule).
Inference: A negative UI of this size alongside strong solar can indicate either internal congestion/curtailment or deliberate backing down-either way, it reduces “usable” flexibility for the wider system.
Why it matters: when solar-heavy states under-draw, the balancing load shifts elsewhere-raising the odds that RTM becomes the pressure point during ramps.

Coal demand from thermal plants crosses 1-billion-tonne mark after post-pandemic surge
Feb 03:
8After two consecutive years of decline, utility coal offtake surged. The data signals that grid-connected utilities, not industrial captive users, are now driving incremental coal logistics pressure. This expansion locks the power system into sustained high coal throughput. The trend also hints at tightening rail and mining infrastructure stress as dispatch volumes approach structural limits.

Market Round-up
Feb 03:
1) Tiny real-time volume hits price ceiling, exposing liquidity gaps
8On 2026-02-02, one RTM window cleared just 190.00 MWh but printed Rs 10.00/kWh MCP.
Inference: A thin order book can “gap” to the ceiling even when the broader RTM market clears far lower (Rs 3.58/kWh), making price discovery fragile.
Why it matters: Liquid price spikes distort balancing benchmarks and can inflate procurement costs for discoms relying on RTM for last-minute corrections.
2) Evening frequency peak crosses 50.17 Hz as excursions stack up
8On 2026-02-02, instantaneous frequency hit 50.174 Hz; the day logged 134 excursions above 50.03 Hz.
Inference: The excursion count alongside a 49.990 Hz average suggests repeated short control actions rather than one prolonged imbalance.
Why it matters: Persistent frequency excursions increase control stress, raise reserve deployment needs, and signal tighter balancing margins than headline averages imply.
3) System leans hard on downward balancing: 53.77 GWh absorbed in reserves
8On 2026-02-02, SRAS+TRAS Down totalled 53.77 GWh, dominated by downward TRAS dispatch.
Inference: Sustained down-dispatch points to prolonged surplus absorption or constraint-driven backing down, not a short mid-day correction.
Why it matters: Heavy downward balancing suppresses generator realisations and may mask congestion or scheduling stress that can later reappear as price volatility.
4) South shows “zero shortage” - but one state carries a deep forecast miss
8On 2026-02-02, the region reported zero shortage, yet one state logged a double-digit negative day-energy forecast deviation.
Inference: The mismatch suggests balancing via deviations and imports rather than accurate scheduling.
Why it matters: Hidden forecast gaps shift costs into deviation settlements and imports, undermining the credibility of “no-shortage” comfort signals.
5) Grid “continuous outages” aren’t short - over 70 elements out for a year
8The outage sheet lists 70+ transmission elements with outage start dates more than a year old.
Inference: This reflects embedded derating or project delays rather than routine maintenance cycling.
Why it matters: Long-duration outages reduce contingency headroom and make the grid structurally more vulnerable to cascading risks during peak stress.
6) Day-ahead price whipsaws: MCP jumps 19% as buy interest surges
8DAM MCP rose from Rs 2.67/kWh to Rs 3.18/kWh in one day (+19%), alongside a sharp rise in purchase bids.
Inference: Higher buy appetite with a higher clearing price suggests tighter flexible supply or reduced marginal availability.
Why it matters: Rising DAM prices directly raise discom procurement costs and increase hedge value for generators with flexible capacity.
7) Real-time price premium widens: RTM jumps 26% in a single day
8RTM MCP climbed from Rs 2.84/kWh to Rs 3.58/kWh day-on-day (+26%).
Inference: Stable traded volumes with a sharp price rise point to stress in marginal flexibility rather than aggregate demand growth.
Why it matters: Costlier RTM corrections penalise forecast errors and increase balancing risk for discoms and open-access buyers.
8) Reactive power workarounds persist as key 400 kV lines remain open
8Multiple 400 kV transmission lines remain deliberately open for months to manage voltage.
Inference: This indicates structural reactive power or voltage control limitations, not short-term operational adjustments.
Why it matters: Prolonged topology-based voltage control reduces transfer flexibility and weakens resilience during high-stress grid events.

Market Round-up
Feb 02:
1) HPX went dark across products for a full trading week
8Cleared volume and MCP printed as 0.00 across RTM for 2026-01-26 to 2026-02-01.
Inference: This looks like no-trade / no-publication rather than low liquidity, because every daily row is zeroed.
Why it matters: A “blank” week breaks cross-exchange price discovery and weakens any congestion/price attribution story.
2) IEX HPDAM showed sellers queued, but not a single buyer cleared
8HPDAM posted sell bids ~124,358–133,022 MWh/day through the week, but MCV and final scheduled volume stayed 0.00 every day.
Inference: Persistent one-sided sell interest without matching bids suggests either price expectations gap or product-level participation failure.
Why it matters: HPDAM cannot signal hydro/flex scarcity if it never clears; it becomes “intent” data, not a market outcome.
3) Day-ahead to real-time flipped sharply positive on 2026-01-31
8On 2026-01-31, IEX DAM MCP = 2821.20 Rs/MWh while RTM MCP = 3399.37 Rs/MWh (basis +578.17 Rs/MWh).
Inference: Such a late-day premium is consistent with tighter balancing needs vs day-ahead expectations, especially when frequency discipline is stressed.
Why it matters: A near Rs 0.58/kWh basis can quickly inflate balancing costs for buyers who under-covered day-ahead.
4) Ancillary down-dispatch dominated 2026-02-01 balancing energy
8TRAS Down = -41,945 MWh on 2026-02-01, with average TRAS+SRAS = -1,543 MW across the day.
Inference: The system leaned more on downward balancing, pointing to surplus/over-schedule pockets rather than scarcity.
Why it matters: Down-dispatch at this scale changes who pays/earns in balancing, and it can distort real-time price signals.
5) Zero ATC/(N-1) breaches, yet a 765-kV corridor saw repeated voltage excursions
8For 2026-02-01, ATC and (N-1) violation counts are 0 on all listed corridors, but Chittorgarh shows 8.13% time outside IEGC band.
Inference: Corridor transfer headroom can look “clean” while local voltage control still strains-two different risk surfaces.
Why it matters: Voltage excursions are operational risk even when transfer indices say “no constraint.”
6) Frequency softened from Friday to Sunday, with deeper low-end touchpoints
8Average frequency moved from 50.008 Hz (2026-01-30) to 49.992 Hz (2026-02-01); minimum instantaneous on 2026-02-01 hit 49.693 Hz.
Inference: The shift is small in average terms but the tail risk (deep dips) is what forces tighter balancing actions.
Why it matters: More low-end exposure increases deviation risk for states and raises the system’s need for fast reserves.
7) Southern region reported zero shortage, but deviations diverged across states
8On 2026-02-01, SR evening peak demand 45,803 MW was met with 0 MW shortage, yet state UI energy shows Tamil Nadu -3.72 MU and Karnataka -1.49 MU.
Inference: Zero-shortage can coexist with state-level deviation behaviour-the balancing burden shifts internally rather than showing as shortage.
Why it matters: Persistent negative/positive UI pockets can become the hidden driver of reserve deployment and settlement friction.
8) A zero-stock captive unit still appears inside the national coal ledger
8On 2026-01-31, SHREE CEMENT LTD TPS (344 MW) shows Actual Stock = 0.0 (‘000 tonnes) and Stock vs normative = 0%.
Inference: Even if it’s not a grid-critical ISGS station, zero-stock pockets can worsen local drawal volatility when captive demand flips to the grid.
Why it matters: It’s a small-unit signal, but it’s the kind that turns into sudden demand shocks in tight hours.

Market Round-up
Jan 30:
1) DAM–RTM basis widens as day-ahead price holds a premium
8On 2026-01-29, IEX DAM MCP = Rs 3,150.51/MWh while RTM MCP = Rs 2,910.94/MWh (basis ≈ Rs 239.57/MWh).
Inference: buyers stayed willing to lock cost in DAM despite softer RTM, suggesting uncertainty/hedging demand rather than a real-time scarcity spike.
Why it matters: a wider basis raises procurement risk for discoms leaning on intraday balancing and can distort “efficient dispatch” signals.
2) A sharp frequency step-down hits mid-morning-without a matching demand shock
8Frequency drops by about 0.34 Hz from 50.23 to 49.89 between 09:00 and 09:15 on 2026-01-29.
Inference: the move is too abrupt to be explained by demand drift alone; it looks like a dispatch/imbalance correction event rather than a gradual ramp.
Why it matters: step-moves like this tighten the operating margin and can amplify deviation exposure even when the day “looks normal” in aggregates.
3) Solar ramp drives exports with a measurable lag
8Solar jumps by ~7,485 MW in one 15-minute step from 08:45 to 09:00 (28,453 → 35,938 MW) on 2026-01-29.
Inference: solar and net interchange show a strong negative lag relationship (|ρ| ≈ 0.60–0.66 over ~15–120 minutes), consistent with rising solar pushing the system toward higher exports after a short lag.
Why it matters: export-led balancing is fragile-if inter-regional margins tighten, the same solar ramp can spill into congestion/price volatility fast.
4) East-to-North flows do the heavy lifting-export shows up corridor-by-corridor
8ER↔NR interchange totals show ER net export ~64.1 MU on 2026-01-29 (ER-NR: Import 3.5 MU, Export 67.6 MU, Net −64.1 MU).
Inference: The same page flags large max export MW on specific ER-NR links (e.g., 765 kV Gaya–Varanasi max export 1,453 MW).
Why it matters: sustained corridor reliance hardens the system into “flow dependency”; when it breaks, prices don’t just move-reliability does too.
5) Market transparency gap: HPX RTM prints zeros while IEX clears real volume
8HPX RTM snapshot shows 0.00 for bids/MCV/cleared volume/MCP across 23/01–29/01/2026, including 2026-01-29.
Inference: this is a reporting/data gap, because IEX RTM for 2026-01-29 shows MCV ~146,803 MWh and MCP Rs 2,910.94/MWh (i.e., the market certainly didn’t “go to zero”).
Why it matters: any narrative built on cross-exchange price/volume comparison becomes untrustworthy when one feed is blanked out.
6) PXIL RTM also shows blanks-two exchanges missing in the same week
8PXIL RTM report prints “–” for Purchase/Sell/MCV/Scheduled/MCP/Weighted MCP for all days 23-01-2026 to 29-01-2026.
Inference: with PXIL and HPX RTM both blank in these attachments, “market-wide RTM behaviour” cannot be stated from non-IEX sources for this window.
Why it matters: reporting gaps weaken regulatory and newsroom scrutiny exactly when volatility narratives need hard numbers.
7) Evening ramp is still thermal-led despite meaningful wind support
8All-India thermal in the 15-min table rises from ~113,695 MW (13:45) to ~173,227 MW (18:45): a ~59,532 MW lift into the evening.
Inference: wind helps (peaks ~21,458 MW at 18:45), but the scale of the net evening ramp remains structurally thermal-led as solar fades.
Why it matters: thermal flexibility, not just RE buildout, is still setting the system’s ramp cost and operational risk envelope.
8) Exports deepen in the solar-heavy afternoon-net interchange hits its daily extreme
8Net interchange reaches its most negative point around 15:15 at ~−2,536 MW (deepest export) on 2026-01-29.
Inference: this aligns with the solar-driven surplus window (solar still elevated), matching the observed lagged solar↔interchange coupling from the same 96-block table.
Why it matters: export-heavy balancing can mask internal stress until a corridor binds-then the adjustment comes through prices and frequency.

Contracting news for the day: Part-1
Jan 30:
PSPCL 300 MW EPC-plus-land tender extends bid window, shifting price calculus and delivery risk
8Three sequential deadline extensions and a final push, materially lowering land-aggregation uncertainty for bidders.
8The contractual terms remain unchanged: land and a three-year O&M obligation stay bundled with EPC, concentrating early-life risk on the contractor.
8The key question is whether the extra time produces deeper competition.
Timelines stretched for again high-voltage GIS packages at 400 kV and 220 kV levels
8This signals technical caution over speed.
8High-voltage GIS is unforgiving of weak pre-bid alignment.
8The owner appears willing to trade time for technical certainty.
8The downstream effects are subtle but material.
Serial bid extensions stretch 400/220 kV GIS EPC into a four-month procurement marathon
8A high-capacity GIS sub-station should test engineering, not procurement stamina.
8The tender has quietly accumulated six deadline extensions without touching scope or terms.
8The pattern raises sharper questions than any corrigendum ever could.
8The project hinges on seamless GIS and live-line LILO integration.
8Extended bidding does not reduce this risk, it redistributes it.
Repeated bid date extensions tighten the spotlight on bidder readiness for this 132/33 kV GIS project
8The owner has pushed the submission deadline again.
8The move looks procedural, but the timing reveals deeper signals about bidder preparedness and OEM alignment.
8What it ultimately means for competition and pricing lies beneath the surface.
BHEL extends deadline for clubbed DG EOT cranes across five thermal power projects
8A quiet date extension in a heavy-lift crane tender reveals more than a scheduling tweak.
8When five power stations are bundled into one procurement, timelines become a strategic lever.
8The implications run deeper than the calendar. Details

India’s invisible megawatts: How captive and rooftop power finally forced themselves into the grid conversation
Feb 04:
8The discussion exposes a quiet governance gap: CEIs, SLDCs, DISCOMs, and developers all hold fragments of the truth, but no one owns the full picture. The proposed data architecture-pilots, smart meters, AMR systems, and developer-led platforms-signals a shift from ad-hoc reporting to quasi-real-time surveillance. Yet beneath the technical optimism lie unresolved cost burdens, data ownership questions, and regulatory exposure that could reshape captive economics and rooftop solar’s grid relationship.

CERC Updates
Feb 04:
1) CERC resets Southern grid strengthening tariffs after capital cost corrections
8The ruling reinforces CERC’s stance on disciplined cost norms, especially around spares and deferred liabilities.
2) CERC trims reactor asset base, resets northern grid charges for new control period
8The ruling reinforces CERC’s hard line on capital discipline before the new tariff block begins. It also signals continued scrutiny of legacy cost padding in mature interstate assets
3) CERC clears litigation-driven cost surge in Southern grid strengthening asset
8The move reinforces that legal risk in transmission projects ultimately migrates into regulated revenue streams.
4) CERC locks revised tariff path for Wardha fault-control transmission upgrade
8It signals that even non-capacity-augmenting works are subject to full tariff scrutiny as grid complexity rises.
5) CERC resets Powergrid Jharkhand–Bengal transmission tariff across two regulatory cycles
8The decision signals continued emphasis on prudence review over mechanical tariff pass-throughs.
6) CERC resets ERSS-VII tariffs, clears Rs 26 lakh carry-over costs into new cycle
8The regulatory signal is one of continuity - no reopening of old disputes, only structured pass-through of verified residuals
7) CERC resets Northeast grid upgrade tariffs, lowers past charges, sets leaner next cycle
8The broader signal is a regulator intent on compression of transmission carrying costs while preserving equity returns.
8) CERC trims legacy tariff base, stabilises spare asset charges for new control period
8The order signals a continued regulatory preference for cost containment in legacy grid assets rather than expansion-driven recovery. It also reinforces discipline on post-COD capital claims.
9) CERC resets ERSS-XVII tariffs as Powergrid costs move into new control period
8The ruling signals continuity rather than reform - but locks in cost visibility for the next five years.
10) CERC resets NERSS-II tariffs, clears legacy dues and locks five-year cost recovery
8The ruling reinforces regulatory preference for financial closure discipline over fresh capex expansion in mature transmission schemes.
11) CERC resets Western Region transmission costs, merges nine grid assets for new tariff cycle
8The regulator has reaffirmed cost-plus transmission recovery but with sharper reconciliation of contractor liabilities and delayed capitalisation flows.
12) CERC clears petition revision but locks in tight January filing deadlines
8The move underscores a regulatory preference for procedural discipline over timeline extensions in active generation tariff matters. For the generator, the revision opportunity comes with limited room for delay or iterative correction.

8The order signals a continued regulatory preference for cost containment in legacy grid assets rather than expansion-driven recovery. It also reinforces discipline on post-COD capital claims.
9) CERC resets ERSS-XVII tariffs as Powergrid costs move into new control period
8The ruling signals continuity rather than reform - but locks in cost visibility for the next five years.
10) CERC resets NERSS-II tariffs, clears legacy dues and locks five-year cost recovery
8The ruling reinforces regulatory preference for financial closure discipline over fresh capex expansion in mature transmission schemes.
11) CERC resets Western Region transmission costs, merges nine grid assets for new tariff cycle
8The regulator has reaffirmed cost-plus transmission recovery but with sharper reconciliation of contractor liabilities and delayed capitalisation flows.
12) CERC clears petition revision but locks in tight January filing deadlines
8The move underscores a regulatory preference for procedural discipline over timeline extensions in active generation tariff matters. For the generator, the revision opportunity comes with limited room for delay or iterative correction.

Miscellaneous Update: Part I
Feb 04:
1) Coal Ministry opens door to insurance bonds as mining performance security
8The change affects competitive tariff-linked coal blocks, including projects supplying ultra mega power plants.
2) Coal ministry lifts December index as coking grades outpace thermal benchmarks
8The direction, however, signals that industrial fuel markets are regaining pricing strength faster than the power sector.
3) Khavda Phase-II link goes live, unlocking 4.5 GW renewable evacuation capacity
8At the system level, it signals continued prioritisation of high-capacity RE corridors over conventional expansion.
4) India’s smart metering drive crosses 5.46 crore installs but mega states lag
8The disparity signals emerging pressure points in funding flows, vendor capacity allocation, and state-level reform readiness.
5) G-DAM volumes rise in January as buyer mix flips and C&I selling accelerates
8The pattern suggests portfolio and procurement repositioning rather than a documented operational disruption.
6) Eastern coal fleet captures SCED gains as southern units absorb deeper backing down in December
8The pattern suggests a system shift where eastern coal economics dominated real-time optimisation, pushing southern units down the merit stack.
7) RVPN defends asset carve-out as RTIL seeks separate transmission licence
8The outcome may signal how Rajasthan handles future structural unbundling within its grid infrastructure.
8) RVPN defends transmission demerger, pushes tariff questions to future proceedings
8For DISCOMs and consumers, the financial ripple effects remain undefined at this stage. The Commission now faces a decision on whether to separate structural approval from tariff accountability.
9) Jodhpur Discom corrects billing linkage for November FPPAS recovery
8It also reflects regulatory sensitivity around billing period integrity under the RERC framework.
10) Coal still anchors Rajasthan dispatch as one major NTPC unit shows cost stress
8For Rajasthan SLDC and state utilities, the data signals continued dependence on central coal allocations while gas remains structurally sidelined.
11) Kerala’s state utility posts profit on government support amid mounting regulatory gap
8The tension between political tariff restraint and financial sustainability is becoming more visible.

Regulatory Updates: Part I
Feb 04:
1) Kerala regulator forces 24×7 supply pledge and auto-compensation regime
8Consumers, especially commercial and institutional users, stand to gain enforceable uptime guarantees for the first time.
2) Kerala regulator trims Infopark costs, rewards loss reduction in FY25 reset
8The outcome signals a regulatory tilt toward efficiency-based incentives rather than blanket cost approvals.
3) TNERC orders TANGEDCO to clear legacy interest dues, blocks instalment relief
8Beyond the immediate financial hit, the ruling reinforces payment discipline expectations in state-backed renewable procurement contracts.
4) TNERC blocks TNPDCL review after APTEL appeal shifts jurisdiction
8The order underscores how procedural missteps can override substantive tariff arguments. It also signals tightening discipline in how regulatory remedies are sequenced.
5) TNERC orders TANGEDCO to pay delayed solar deposit with 12% interest
8The decision signals that regulatory tolerance for payment deferrals is narrowing.
6) Regulator blocks sub-threshold 33 kV supply, reinforces voltage discipline

Power Committee Updates
Feb 04:
1) West Bengal’s reactive bill collapses - but the pool imbalance doesn’t: Bihar, Kahalgaon and Odisha quietly take over the VAR cashflow
8The pool is becoming a mirror of grid voltage management - and it’s reflecting instability pockets, not average performance.
2) The ER grid’s “quiet instability”: DSM pool stays positive, but the real stress is migrating into inter-regional settlement and dispatch-side make-good mechanisms
8The structural tension is clear: DSM looks “settled”, but scarcity is being priced through ancillary and commitment constructs, creating a two-layer discipline regime-payments move, but reliability signals are bleeding into other accounts.
3) NER’s allocation envelope tightens in Jan: the headline isn’t one plant-it’s the shrinking “total power” canvas and what it does to discipline
8January reads like an allocation stress-test-not because the sheet screams with exceptions, but because the macro ceiling falls and every sub-allocation becomes a potential grievance point.
4) WRPC’s pool flipped from SCUC-dominant surplus to shortfall-driven stress - even as the same winners kept collecting
8And the repeated behavioural issue is the persistence of large negative contributors (multiple VSTPS units, Sipat, NSPCL) - the same names, same direction signature that looks less like noise and more like a structural operating posture.
5) WR’s DSM bill didn’t “improve”-it collapsed: inter-regional stress cooled, and renewables stopped bleeding (for now)
8Operationally, the risk isn’t this week’s lower bill-it’s the volatility signal: the account shows WR can swing from heavy net payable to near-flat in seven days, which usually means the control problem has shifted-not vanished.
6) One flagship block stayed rock-solid-while another faceplanted to 45% availability, forcing the month’s ‘virtual’ balancing to do the heavy lifting in the West’s REA-based ABT
8Net-net, the grid’s meaning for the latest period is uncomfortable: operational stability is being maintained-but the reliability margin is concentrating, and concentration is what breaks first when the next unit trips.
7) Chhattisgarh’s VAR shock flips polarity- and quietly rewrites Western Region’s “discipline map” in a single week
8And the structural tension remains: state-level pay/receive can flip fast, but the persistent payer set (especially Gujarat) suggests deeper VAR management and network/reactive control constraints that weekly settlement alone won’t cure.
8) January’s scheduling story in NRPC: the virtual stack flipped from “support” to “stress”-with TRAS/SCUC turning into a visible corrective hand across flagship NR stations
8The repeated behavioural issue is that the virtual stack keeps appearing as a balancing tool rather than an exception-suggesting structural reliance on optimisation layers where beneficiary discipline should have carried the load.
9) Southern Region’s reactive pool tightens: net receivable jumps-driven by Karnataka + Andhra, while Tamil Nadu flips from payer to major claimant
8This is the kind of weekly pattern that quietly rewires incentives: reactive discipline becomes a tradable edge-until the pool starts signalling “persistent winners” and “repeat offenders” with uncomfortable consistency.
10) From Telangana tailwind to Tamil Nadu windfall: the DSM pool flips its biggest payer/receiver map in one week
8Week-on-week, the Southern Region’s DSM story isn’t “volatility”-it’s a clean redistribution of who is funding discipline and who is cashing it.

Market Round-up
Feb 04:
1) RTM blows out over DAM as net exports shrink during the morning ramp
8RTM MCP hit Rs 8.51/kWh at Hour 7 (DAM at the same hour: Rs 5.73/kWh) on 2026-02-03.
Inference: All-India net exchange flipped “less export” as RTM spiked (from -2,020 MW at 00:00 to -1,294 MW at 07:00), tightening the system right when demand jumped above 209 GW.
Why it matters: a ~Rs 2.77/kWh RTM–DAM basis at a peak hour is a direct procurement risk for RTM-exposed buyers and a stress-signal for balancing depth.
2) A second price regime hits at 18:00 as export cushion collapses again
8RTM MCP stepped up from Rs 4.37/kWh (17:45) to Rs 8.68/kWh (18:00) on 2026-02-03.
Inference: The jump lines up with net exchange moving sharply toward zero (export shrinking to ~-1.34 GW at 18:00), while frequency softened into 49.95–49.96 Hz by 18:30–18:45.
Why it matters: this is a clean “regime break” signature-buyers relying on late-day RTM cover face sudden cost shocks without an obvious corridor-constraint trigger.
3) “No ATC/(N-1) violations” masks a voltage problem at a solar hub
8The system reliability report shows 0 hours of ATC and (N-1) violations on major corridors for 2026-02-03.
Inference: Yet Bhadla II sat outside the IEGC voltage band for 17.71% of the day, a local stress that corridor indices don’t capture.
Why it matters: market participants can see “congestion-free” dashboards while still paying for voltage management risk that hits dispatch flexibility and renewable evacuation.
4) Ancillary SCUC volumes signal heavy balancing-even before you see the price
8SCUC schedules show SCUC-Up = 41,992 MWh and SCUC-Down = -41,991 MWh for 2026-02-03.
Inference: That “up/down symmetry” screams continuous re-balancing, consistent with the day’s sharp RTM basis events (morning and 18:00 step) rather than a single isolated disturbance.
Why it matters: when balancing energy is this large, RTM becomes the cost-pass-through channel; any liquidity thinning can turn routine balancing into headline volatility.
5) Big thermal outages sit in the background while buyers fight for RTM cover
8On 2026-02-02, multiple 660 MW units are listed under maintenance/forced categories (e.g., Jawaharpur STPP Unit-1 & Unit-2, Chhabra-II TPP Unit-6).
Inference: With large units unavailable entering 2026-02-03, the system has less thermal “shock absorber,” making net-exchange swings and balancing actions more price-visible in RTM.
Why it matters: outage-driven tightness doesn’t need a corridor violation to hurt-costs show up as RTM spikes and a wider intraday basis.
6) Smaller exchanges go dark-price discovery concentrates, volatility risk rises
8PXIL shows RTM MCP = Rs 10.00/kWh on 2026-02-02 with just 190 MWh scheduled; on 2026-02-03, PXIL RTM shows no trades.
Inference: HPX RTM snapshot lists zero bids and zero cleared volume even on 2026-02-03.
Why it matters: thin or absent trading outside the dominant venue reduces “pressure-release valves”-stress concentrates, and RTM spikes become harder to arbitrage away.
7) Rajasthan posts a positive UI day while running heavy thermal + solar-quiet imbalance risk
8In NR’s daily report for 2026-02-03, Rajasthan shows UI = +0.84 MU with generation dominated by thermal (152.02 MU) and sizable solar (43.81 MU).
Inference: A positive UI alongside high internal generation suggests schedule-tracking stress (forecast error or dispatch friction), which can spill into RTM procurement and balancing requirements.
Why it matters: even with zero reported shortage, persistent UI in large states is a cost-leak channel (DSM exposure) and a system-balancing burden.
8) Tamil Nadu shows a large negative UI despite big solar-curtailment or self-backdown signal
8In SR’s 2026-02-03 report, Tamil Nadu records Solar = 43.40 MU and UI = -4.62 MU (net under-drawal versus schedule).
Inference: A negative UI of this size alongside strong solar can indicate either internal congestion/curtailment or deliberate backing down-either way, it reduces “usable” flexibility for the wider system.
Why it matters: when solar-heavy states under-draw, the balancing load shifts elsewhere-raising the odds that RTM becomes the pressure point during ramps.

Inference: A negative UI of this size alongside strong solar can indicate either internal congestion/curtailment or deliberate backing down-either way, it reduces “usable” flexibility for the wider system.
Why it matters: when solar-heavy states under-draw, the balancing load shifts elsewhere-raising the odds that RTM becomes the pressure point during ramps.

Market Round-up
Feb 03:
1) Tiny real-time volume hits price ceiling, exposing liquidity gaps
8On 2026-02-02, one RTM window cleared just 190.00 MWh but printed Rs 10.00/kWh MCP.
Inference: A thin order book can “gap” to the ceiling even when the broader RTM market clears far lower (Rs 3.58/kWh), making price discovery fragile.
Why it matters: Liquid price spikes distort balancing benchmarks and can inflate procurement costs for discoms relying on RTM for last-minute corrections.
2) Evening frequency peak crosses 50.17 Hz as excursions stack up
8On 2026-02-02, instantaneous frequency hit 50.174 Hz; the day logged 134 excursions above 50.03 Hz.
Inference: The excursion count alongside a 49.990 Hz average suggests repeated short control actions rather than one prolonged imbalance.
Why it matters: Persistent frequency excursions increase control stress, raise reserve deployment needs, and signal tighter balancing margins than headline averages imply.
3) System leans hard on downward balancing: 53.77 GWh absorbed in reserves
8On 2026-02-02, SRAS+TRAS Down totalled 53.77 GWh, dominated by downward TRAS dispatch.
Inference: Sustained down-dispatch points to prolonged surplus absorption or constraint-driven backing down, not a short mid-day correction.
Why it matters: Heavy downward balancing suppresses generator realisations and may mask congestion or scheduling stress that can later reappear as price volatility.
4) South shows “zero shortage” - but one state carries a deep forecast miss
8On 2026-02-02, the region reported zero shortage, yet one state logged a double-digit negative day-energy forecast deviation.
Inference: The mismatch suggests balancing via deviations and imports rather than accurate scheduling.
Why it matters: Hidden forecast gaps shift costs into deviation settlements and imports, undermining the credibility of “no-shortage” comfort signals.
5) Grid “continuous outages” aren’t short - over 70 elements out for a year
8The outage sheet lists 70+ transmission elements with outage start dates more than a year old.
Inference: This reflects embedded derating or project delays rather than routine maintenance cycling.
Why it matters: Long-duration outages reduce contingency headroom and make the grid structurally more vulnerable to cascading risks during peak stress.
6) Day-ahead price whipsaws: MCP jumps 19% as buy interest surges
8DAM MCP rose from Rs 2.67/kWh to Rs 3.18/kWh in one day (+19%), alongside a sharp rise in purchase bids.
Inference: Higher buy appetite with a higher clearing price suggests tighter flexible supply or reduced marginal availability.
Why it matters: Rising DAM prices directly raise discom procurement costs and increase hedge value for generators with flexible capacity.
7) Real-time price premium widens: RTM jumps 26% in a single day
8RTM MCP climbed from Rs 2.84/kWh to Rs 3.58/kWh day-on-day (+26%).
Inference: Stable traded volumes with a sharp price rise point to stress in marginal flexibility rather than aggregate demand growth.
Why it matters: Costlier RTM corrections penalise forecast errors and increase balancing risk for discoms and open-access buyers.
8) Reactive power workarounds persist as key 400 kV lines remain open
8Multiple 400 kV transmission lines remain deliberately open for months to manage voltage.
Inference: This indicates structural reactive power or voltage control limitations, not short-term operational adjustments.
Why it matters: Prolonged topology-based voltage control reduces transfer flexibility and weakens resilience during high-stress grid events.

Market Round-up
Feb 02:
1) HPX went dark across products for a full trading week
8Cleared volume and MCP printed as 0.00 across RTM for 2026-01-26 to 2026-02-01.
Inference: This looks like no-trade / no-publication rather than low liquidity, because every daily row is zeroed.
Why it matters: A “blank” week breaks cross-exchange price discovery and weakens any congestion/price attribution story.
2) IEX HPDAM showed sellers queued, but not a single buyer cleared
8HPDAM posted sell bids ~124,358–133,022 MWh/day through the week, but MCV and final scheduled volume stayed 0.00 every day.
Inference: Persistent one-sided sell interest without matching bids suggests either price expectations gap or product-level participation failure.
Why it matters: HPDAM cannot signal hydro/flex scarcity if it never clears; it becomes “intent” data, not a market outcome.
3) Day-ahead to real-time flipped sharply positive on 2026-01-31
8On 2026-01-31, IEX DAM MCP = 2821.20 Rs/MWh while RTM MCP = 3399.37 Rs/MWh (basis +578.17 Rs/MWh).
Inference: Such a late-day premium is consistent with tighter balancing needs vs day-ahead expectations, especially when frequency discipline is stressed.
Why it matters: A near Rs 0.58/kWh basis can quickly inflate balancing costs for buyers who under-covered day-ahead.
4) Ancillary down-dispatch dominated 2026-02-01 balancing energy
8TRAS Down = -41,945 MWh on 2026-02-01, with average TRAS+SRAS = -1,543 MW across the day.
Inference: The system leaned more on downward balancing, pointing to surplus/over-schedule pockets rather than scarcity.
Why it matters: Down-dispatch at this scale changes who pays/earns in balancing, and it can distort real-time price signals.
5) Zero ATC/(N-1) breaches, yet a 765-kV corridor saw repeated voltage excursions
8For 2026-02-01, ATC and (N-1) violation counts are 0 on all listed corridors, but Chittorgarh shows 8.13% time outside IEGC band.
Inference: Corridor transfer headroom can look “clean” while local voltage control still strains-two different risk surfaces.
Why it matters: Voltage excursions are operational risk even when transfer indices say “no constraint.”
6) Frequency softened from Friday to Sunday, with deeper low-end touchpoints
8Average frequency moved from 50.008 Hz (2026-01-30) to 49.992 Hz (2026-02-01); minimum instantaneous on 2026-02-01 hit 49.693 Hz.
Inference: The shift is small in average terms but the tail risk (deep dips) is what forces tighter balancing actions.
Why it matters: More low-end exposure increases deviation risk for states and raises the system’s need for fast reserves.
7) Southern region reported zero shortage, but deviations diverged across states
8On 2026-02-01, SR evening peak demand 45,803 MW was met with 0 MW shortage, yet state UI energy shows Tamil Nadu -3.72 MU and Karnataka -1.49 MU.
Inference: Zero-shortage can coexist with state-level deviation behaviour-the balancing burden shifts internally rather than showing as shortage.
Why it matters: Persistent negative/positive UI pockets can become the hidden driver of reserve deployment and settlement friction.
8) A zero-stock captive unit still appears inside the national coal ledger
8On 2026-01-31, SHREE CEMENT LTD TPS (344 MW) shows Actual Stock = 0.0 (‘000 tonnes) and Stock vs normative = 0%.
Inference: Even if it’s not a grid-critical ISGS station, zero-stock pockets can worsen local drawal volatility when captive demand flips to the grid.
Why it matters: It’s a small-unit signal, but it’s the kind that turns into sudden demand shocks in tight hours.

Market Round-up
Jan 30:
1) DAM–RTM basis widens as day-ahead price holds a premium
8On 2026-01-29, IEX DAM MCP = Rs 3,150.51/MWh while RTM MCP = Rs 2,910.94/MWh (basis ≈ Rs 239.57/MWh).
Inference: buyers stayed willing to lock cost in DAM despite softer RTM, suggesting uncertainty/hedging demand rather than a real-time scarcity spike.
Why it matters: a wider basis raises procurement risk for discoms leaning on intraday balancing and can distort “efficient dispatch” signals.
2) A sharp frequency step-down hits mid-morning-without a matching demand shock
8Frequency drops by about 0.34 Hz from 50.23 to 49.89 between 09:00 and 09:15 on 2026-01-29.
Inference: the move is too abrupt to be explained by demand drift alone; it looks like a dispatch/imbalance correction event rather than a gradual ramp.
Why it matters: step-moves like this tighten the operating margin and can amplify deviation exposure even when the day “looks normal” in aggregates.
3) Solar ramp drives exports with a measurable lag
8Solar jumps by ~7,485 MW in one 15-minute step from 08:45 to 09:00 (28,453 → 35,938 MW) on 2026-01-29.
Inference: solar and net interchange show a strong negative lag relationship (|ρ| ≈ 0.60–0.66 over ~15–120 minutes), consistent with rising solar pushing the system toward higher exports after a short lag.
Why it matters: export-led balancing is fragile-if inter-regional margins tighten, the same solar ramp can spill into congestion/price volatility fast.
4) East-to-North flows do the heavy lifting-export shows up corridor-by-corridor
8ER↔NR interchange totals show ER net export ~64.1 MU on 2026-01-29 (ER-NR: Import 3.5 MU, Export 67.6 MU, Net −64.1 MU).
Inference: The same page flags large max export MW on specific ER-NR links (e.g., 765 kV Gaya–Varanasi max export 1,453 MW).
Why it matters: sustained corridor reliance hardens the system into “flow dependency”; when it breaks, prices don’t just move-reliability does too.
5) Market transparency gap: HPX RTM prints zeros while IEX clears real volume
8HPX RTM snapshot shows 0.00 for bids/MCV/cleared volume/MCP across 23/01–29/01/2026, including 2026-01-29.
Inference: this is a reporting/data gap, because IEX RTM for 2026-01-29 shows MCV ~146,803 MWh and MCP Rs 2,910.94/MWh (i.e., the market certainly didn’t “go to zero”).
Why it matters: any narrative built on cross-exchange price/volume comparison becomes untrustworthy when one feed is blanked out.
6) PXIL RTM also shows blanks-two exchanges missing in the same week
8PXIL RTM report prints “–” for Purchase/Sell/MCV/Scheduled/MCP/Weighted MCP for all days 23-01-2026 to 29-01-2026.
Inference: with PXIL and HPX RTM both blank in these attachments, “market-wide RTM behaviour” cannot be stated from non-IEX sources for this window.
Why it matters: reporting gaps weaken regulatory and newsroom scrutiny exactly when volatility narratives need hard numbers.
7) Evening ramp is still thermal-led despite meaningful wind support
8All-India thermal in the 15-min table rises from ~113,695 MW (13:45) to ~173,227 MW (18:45): a ~59,532 MW lift into the evening.
Inference: wind helps (peaks ~21,458 MW at 18:45), but the scale of the net evening ramp remains structurally thermal-led as solar fades.
Why it matters: thermal flexibility, not just RE buildout, is still setting the system’s ramp cost and operational risk envelope.
8) Exports deepen in the solar-heavy afternoon-net interchange hits its daily extreme
8Net interchange reaches its most negative point around 15:15 at ~−2,536 MW (deepest export) on 2026-01-29.
Inference: this aligns with the solar-driven surplus window (solar still elevated), matching the observed lagged solar↔interchange coupling from the same 96-block table.
Why it matters: export-heavy balancing can mask internal stress until a corridor binds-then the adjustment comes through prices and frequency.

8On 2026-01-29, IEX DAM MCP = Rs 3,150.51/MWh while RTM MCP = Rs 2,910.94/MWh (basis ≈ Rs 239.57/MWh).
Inference: buyers stayed willing to lock cost in DAM despite softer RTM, suggesting uncertainty/hedging demand rather than a real-time scarcity spike.
Why it matters: a wider basis raises procurement risk for discoms leaning on intraday balancing and can distort “efficient dispatch” signals.
2) A sharp frequency step-down hits mid-morning-without a matching demand shock
8Frequency drops by about 0.34 Hz from 50.23 to 49.89 between 09:00 and 09:15 on 2026-01-29.
Inference: the move is too abrupt to be explained by demand drift alone; it looks like a dispatch/imbalance correction event rather than a gradual ramp.
Why it matters: step-moves like this tighten the operating margin and can amplify deviation exposure even when the day “looks normal” in aggregates.
3) Solar ramp drives exports with a measurable lag

Contracting news for the day: Part-1
Jan 30:
PSPCL 300 MW EPC-plus-land tender extends bid window, shifting price calculus and delivery risk
8Three sequential deadline extensions and a final push, materially lowering land-aggregation uncertainty for bidders.
8The contractual terms remain unchanged: land and a three-year O&M obligation stay bundled with EPC, concentrating early-life risk on the contractor.
8The key question is whether the extra time produces deeper competition.
Timelines stretched for again high-voltage GIS packages at 400 kV and 220 kV levels
8This signals technical caution over speed.
8High-voltage GIS is unforgiving of weak pre-bid alignment.
8The owner appears willing to trade time for technical certainty.
8The downstream effects are subtle but material.
Serial bid extensions stretch 400/220 kV GIS EPC into a four-month procurement marathon
8A high-capacity GIS sub-station should test engineering, not procurement stamina.
8The tender has quietly accumulated six deadline extensions without touching scope or terms.
8The pattern raises sharper questions than any corrigendum ever could.
8The project hinges on seamless GIS and live-line LILO integration.
8Extended bidding does not reduce this risk, it redistributes it.
Repeated bid date extensions tighten the spotlight on bidder readiness for this 132/33 kV GIS project
8The owner has pushed the submission deadline again.
8The move looks procedural, but the timing reveals deeper signals about bidder preparedness and OEM alignment.
8What it ultimately means for competition and pricing lies beneath the surface.
BHEL extends deadline for clubbed DG EOT cranes across five thermal power projects
8A quiet date extension in a heavy-lift crane tender reveals more than a scheduling tweak.
8When five power stations are bundled into one procurement, timelines become a strategic lever.
8The implications run deeper than the calendar. Details
