APDCL pushes 67 MW rooftop-solar RESCO tender deeper into December as fragmented government-building scope slows bidder mobilisation
8APDCL has quietly extended its 67 MW RESCO rooftop-solar tender, signalling deeper bidder-side stress around multisite government-building readiness.
8The 15-day shift reshapes timelines, risk modelling and auction sequencing.
8What this means for tariff discovery and package-wise competition is far from settled. Details
UJVN pushes Tiuni-Plasu HEP tender to 8 December after eight extensions and major HM/E&M clause resets
8UJVN has taken the Tiuni-Plasu HEP tender through an unusually long chain of extensions and technical resets.
8The shift alters both the competitive field and the risk architecture for HM and E&M bidders.
8What this means for price behaviour and final participation remains the real story. Details
UPPTCL pushes high-discipline procurement for 36 units of 63 MVA transformers as GeM tender ESD-661 tightens design and loss controls
8UPPTCL’s latest 63 MVA transformer tender locks in some of the strictest design and loss parameters seen in recent state-utility procurements.
8The financial, technical and documentation barriers create a narrow but high-quality bidder field.
8What it means for pricing power and supply-chain stability remains to be tested. Details
DVC’s 800 MW DTPS main-plant EPC bid drifts six months as full technical spec is rewritten
8DVC has pushed the DTPS 800 MW main-plant EPC deadline through nine extensions as it rewired the core technical specification.
8The promoter replaced the entire Volume-2 engineering pack while issuing successive corrections to interfaces, DCS logic, power-tapping and instrumentation.
8The final bid window now hinges on whether contractors can absorb the tightened responsibilities without inflating prices. Details
HVPNL extends 40/50 MVA transformer tender as new liability clause reshapes bidder risk
8HVPNL’s 40/50 MVA transformer tender has been pushed deep into December after multiple extensions rewired the competition window.
8A new liability-limitation clause slipped into Schedule-D mid-cycle has further altered how OEMs price and insure the package.
8The real impact lies in how bidders recalibrate risk, losses and compliance under HVPNL’s uncompromising technical regime. Details
CTUIL sharpens compliance and cost-control framework in new Independent Engineer tender for ERGS-I
8CTUIL’s new Independent Engineer tender for ERGS-I embeds an unusually tough mix of quality, compliance and cyber-security obligations.
8The scheme’s high-risk 765 kV LILO element places heavy emphasis on design validation and milestone-certification discipline.
8The real story lies in how CTUIL uses QCBS and fixed per-diems to reshape contractor behaviour. Details
Re-conductor push signals a high-ampacity shift
8A 145 CKM, 220 kV uprating package owned by a state transmission utility seeks 1200A HTLS deployment across multiple corridors, with mandatory PLS-CADD clearance proofs and non-negotiable daily shutdown-window execution—tightening technical compliance beyond earlier HTLS schemes. Details
8So tight is the margin that the bidder left room for margin cushion against inflation, geological surprises, or regulatory changes.
8A four decade contract will eventually end up fraying nerves, both for the contractor and owner. Details

1) RTM overtakes DAM on sunday; spread at Rs 0.15/kWh
8RTM’s average MCP on 2025-11-30 printed at Rs 2.82/kWh versus DAM’s Rs 2.67/kWh.
Inference: Weekend sell stacks were deep in DAM while RTM demand concentrated in fewer blocks, nudging RTM over DAM.
Why it matters: A positive RTM–DAM basis changes hedge economics for DISCOMs and generators trading weekends.

2) ER→NR ATC binds lasted 13 hours on 2025-11-30
8ATC violations were recorded for 13 hours (13.54% of blocks) on the ER–NR corridor.
Inference: Tight east-to-north transfer likely constrained price convergence during the day’s shoulder periods.
Why it matters: Persistent ER→NR congestion raises delivered power costs for northern buyers and limits portfolio rebalancing.

3) Ancillary stack skewed to down-regulation; net −9.73 GWh on 2025-11-27
8SRAS+TRAS awards totaled +21,611 MWh (up) and −31,344 MWh (down), net −9,733 MWh.
Inference: Over-commitment or higher must-run scheduling likely drove sustained down-regulation calls through multiple blocks.
Why it matters: Net down-regulation imposes balancing costs and can depress peak-hour flexibility premiums.

4) Hapur logged 1.11% time outside 765 kV band; most nodes stayed within
8Voltage at Hapur was outside the 765 kV IEGC band for 1.11% of the day; many 765 kV nodes showed 0.00%.
Inference: Localized reactive management or loading conditions created a narrow voltage tail despite broadly stable grid voltage.
Why it matters: Even small tails can force VAR support and tap-changer actions that add system costs.

5) Sunday DAM cleared only ~30% of sell offers
8On 2025-11-30, DAM sell bids were 676,565 MWh against final scheduled 203,073.97 MWh (≈30.02% clearance).
Inference: Excess weekend offers and softer demand compressed clears despite adequate inter-regional transfer windows.
Why it matters: Low clearance ratios raise non-clear risk for generators and shift volume into RTM at potentially higher MCPs.

6) Coal stocks: Haryana fleet heavily over-normative; Punjab mixed
8HPGCL’s aggregate coal stock stood at 178% of normative; PSPCL’s Ropar was at 85% while GHTP was at 113%.
Inference: The dispersion signals uneven replenishment and could influence unit commitment choices across neighboring states.
Why it matters: Carrying excess coal ties up working capital; sub-normative sites face higher spot-purchase risk if rail logistics tighten.

7) VRE penetration hit 24.28% in solar hours on 2025-11-29
8During 07:00–17:00, all-India VRE (wind+solar) penetration reached 24.28% of demand met.
Inference: High daytime VRE share paired with later down-reg ancillary (see 2025-11-27) suggests operators actively trimmed thermal schedules around solar ramps.
Why it matters: Rising mid-day VRE dominance increases the premium on fast-ramp capacity and storage bidding strategies.

8) Karnataka ended with +0.85 MU UI despite no regional shortage (SR, 2025-11-30)
8Southern Region reported zero shortage at 19:00 and 03:00 peaks, but Karnataka posted +0.85 MU UI by day-end.
Inference: Mild positive UI points to intraday schedule–drawal mismatch even when the region met demand comfortably.
Why it matters: Small UI imbalances accumulate into real costs; tighter forecast-to-schedule alignment can shave Rs-denominated penalties.

BHEL resets risk contours as Raghunathpur AHP-CHP EPC tender tightens scope while softening securities
8BHEL’s extension tender for the Raghunathpur AHP-CHP package rebalances competition with a sharply reduced EMD.
8But the commercial comfort ends there, as the EPC contractor inherits rigid quantities, zero ORC protection and full civil-plus-FPS responsibilities.
8The shift signals a deeper structural recalibration in how BHEL allocates execution risk. Details
