Dec 2025

8RRVPN has quietly rewritten its procurement script by awarding the Fatehgarh GSS package BOQ-wise instead of selecting a single turnkey L1.
8The result is a three-contractor mosaic carrying split responsibility for transformers, civil works and capacitor-bank integration.
8The deeper story is how this fragmentation reshapes risk, accountability and commissioning certainty. Details
8GUVNL’s latest BESS award sets a new benchmark for what storage developers must guarantee over a 12-year lifecycle.
8The capacity charges look simple, but the penalty architecture behind them reshapes risk, bankability, and augmentation economics.
8The real story is how thin the developer margin becomes once availability, RtE and degradation are enforced simultaneously. Details
8REC’s Mekhali 400 kV package has drawn a surprisingly stacked field of six sole bidders.
8But the real story lies in how aggressively the RFP pushes design, clearance and multi-corridor execution risks onto the developer.
8The tariff battle now hinges on how these players price that risk in the e-reverse auction. Details
8NTPC’s latest ash-handling award locks in a razor-thin price edge that exposes how intense the logistics competition has become.
8Guru Kripa Logistic emerges L1 by barely 2.7%, signalling a market operating at the edge of margin viability.
8The real story is how fixed-price ash transport under GeM is reshaping contractor risk for the rest of NTPC’s coal fleet. Details
KSEB’s Edamon GIS tender drifts through five extensions as civil–SAS complexity reshapes bidder strategy
8KSEB’s 400 kV Edamon GIS package has now slipped through five successive extensions, signalling a project still settling its technical and integration footing.
8The uploaded specifications point to a civil-heavy, SAS-dense scope that demands deeper OEM coordination than typical substation builds.
8The real tension lies in how vendors price uncertainty when the scope is stable but the timeline refuses to settle. Details
HVPNL pushes GIS-bay turnkey deadline to 22 December as multi-substation interfaces slow bidder readiness
8HVPNL has extended the GIS-bay augmentation tender to 22 December after bidders struggled to stitch together multi-node Siemens-GIS integration plans.
8The package spans eight substations and demands adapter engineering that few contractors can fast-track.
8The new timeline buys breathing room, but also raises questions about bidder depth in Haryana’s GIS market. Details
APSPDCL tightens contractor filters as SIP-26 feeder-segregation tender demands high credentials and full-chain EPC delivery
8APSPDCL’s latest RDSS segregation tender sets unusually steep qualification thresholds for a district-wide 11 kV feeder overhaul.
8The structure pushes the job firmly into mid-tier EPC territory while tightening compliance through Class-I local supplier norms.
8What this does to competition, pricing and execution risk becomes clear only once the financials open.

APSPDCL tightens RDSS feeder-segregation playbook with a high-bar Rs 99-crore EPC package in Nandyal
8APSPDCL has issued an unusually demanding EPC tender for segregating 69 agricultural feeders in Nandyal.
8The PQ thresholds look more like transmission-project filters than conventional RDSS norms.
8The real story is what these barriers reveal about APSPDCL’s evolving risk appetite Details

1. RTM’s weekly weighted MCP averaged Rs 3.51 /kWh
8Real-Time Market weighted MCP averaged Rs 3.51 /kWh for 2025-12-04 to 2025-12-10 (min Rs 2.80, max Rs 4.35).
Inference: Higher cleared volumes mid-week alongside moderate price dispersion on IEX’s RTM panel.
Why it matters: Signals a broadly liquid week with manageable imbalance costs for portfolios hedging with RTM.

2. DAM’s Sunday print slumped to Rs 2.58 /kWh
8Day-Ahead Market on 2025-12-07 printed a weighted MCP of Rs 2.58 /kWh (Rs 2,584.60/MWh).
Inference: Lower weekend demand plus higher sell interest compressed the print; no ATC binds flagged on NLDC indices next days.
Why it matters: Weekend price floor helps reduce procurement-cost averages for weekly portfolios.

3. Frequency held center with brief tails at dawn and early peak
8On 2025-12-10, mean frequency 49.993 Hz; FDI 19.1; max 50.269 Hz at 06:02; min 49.740 Hz at 07:17.
Inference: Early-morning ramp before solar pickup; later stability aligns with AGC activity.
Why it matters: Tight control reduces DSM volatility and balancing costs.

4. Ancillaries showed heavy net down-dispatch on TRAS
8On 2025-12-10, TRAS despatched +7,694 MWh (Up) and –32,115 MWh (Down); SRAS +5,765 / –6,061 MWh.
Inference: Net down-bias consistent with over-commitment risk and stable frequency near 50 Hz.
Why it matters: Indicates system preference to soak excess, shaping on-bar prices and DSM exposure.

5. No corridor reliability breaches flagged on 2025-12-10
8NLDC System Reliability Indices show 0 blocks / 0 hours violated across WR-NR, ER-NR, NR import, NEW-SR, NER import.
Inference: Planned capacity and no (N-1) proxy binds kept network unconstrained.
Why it matters: Unconstrained backbone ensures DAM/RTM prices reflect fundamentals, not rents.

6. Voltage deviations surfaced at 765 kV Ajmer; others stayed within band
8Ajmer 765 kV logged 2.57 % time outside IEGC band on 2025-12-10 (max 801 kV, min 765 kV, avg 781 kV).
Inference: Local reactive management drove brief over-voltage windows; most nodes within limits.
Why it matters: Even small VDI tails at 765 kV warrant tap/VAR diligence to avoid insulation stress.

7. Eastern region met evening peak cleanly with zero shortage
8Eastern Region supplied 22,967 MW at 19:00 with zero shortage on 2025-12-10; day energy 465.62 MU.
Inference: Balanced availability and schedules at state peripheries sustained full coverage.
Why it matters: Demonstrates robust ER balance on a business-day peak, lowering reliance on imports.

8. SCUC leaned on sub-Rs 3 /kWh ECR in multiple blocks
8D-1 SCUC for 2025-12-11 cleared units with ECR as low as 272.5 paise/kWh (blocks T49–T64).
Inference: Economic dispatch prioritised low-ECR coal in mid-day blocks to compress balancing costs.
Why it matters: Affirms merit-order discipline and moderates MCP when corridors remain open.

9. One large pithead station showed just 3.9 days of coal
8Rajiv Gandhi TPS reported 3.9 days of coal on 2025-12-09 against requirement 7.2 days (rail-fed).
Inference: Stock drawdown outpaced receipts; exposes short-term supply risk if rail lags.
Why it matters: Sub-week stock at a major station can tighten inter-regional balancing if prolonged.

8With TRAS-Emergency provisions now live for both inter-state IPPs and large RE stations, the period reveals a grid in which DSM, VARh and ancillary levers are increasingly intertwined, and behavioural discipline in a few states and plants can shift the entire region’s weekly cash flows.

8In the RE corridors around Bhuj, Barsaita Desh, Morjar and other Gujarat–MP solar/wind hubs, the pattern is even starker: single-phase faults, no auto-reclose attempt, complete evacuation loss and “no representation” from project developers when the matter comes back

8In the PVUNL event, a transient Y-phase fault on the Tenughat–PVUNL line is cleared by successful A/R, yet a main-2 relay at Patratu trips the 400-kV PVUNL–Patratu-1 line instantaneously in zone-3 because its time delay was left at 0 ms from earlier anti-theft operations.

8How Balimela lost 370–390 MW twice in four days, first to a broken jumper and then to lightning-induced R-Y-earth faults, with all units tripping on overspeed/over-frequency as evacuation collapsed. Every further delay keeps a large block of flexible hydro at the mercy of first-fault contingencies and raises questions over Odisha’s ability to rely on this station for black-start or peaking support.

8The Eastern Region that is running increasingly on protection “luck” rather than protection discipline. Correct tripping may have improved versus August, but spurious operations have now climbed to 55% of incidents in October, even as multiple 220-kV hubs So what is layered is fresh compliance pressure: SPS schemes must now see annual mock testing, hydro and HEP plants must demonstrate black-start readiness, and utilities are being named in colour-coded protection-performance tables month after month.

1) APCPDCL levies Rs.0.40/unit FPPCA for October 2025 as per APERC’s automatic monthly pass-through
8The company also noted that agricultural consumers’ component will be claimed from the state government as subsidy. The move marks another operational cycle under the new monthly automatic true-up framework notified by APERC.

2) APEPDCL’s September 2025 FPPCA shows steady procurement and falling unit cost as NTPC drawals normalise and IPPs step back
8The overall picture is one of tactical cost containment through dispatch optimisation rather than structural demand change.

1) DAM stayed mid-3s even without ATC binds
8The DAM weighted MCP averaged Rs 3.68/kWh during 2025-12-03 to 2025-12-09, with a low Rs 2.56/kWh (2025-12-07) and high Rs 4.24/kWh (2025-12-04).
Inference: Prices moved across a wide band despite zero ATC/(N-1) corridor violations on 2025-12-09, pointing to supply–demand dynamics rather than inter-regional constraints.
Why it matters: Portfolio hedges built on “transmission-bind = price spike” heuristics under-explain recent DAM variance, raising basis risk for short positions.

2) RTM printed a single cap-hour; rest cleared in the low-to-mid 3s
8On 2025-12-09, IEX RTM hit the Rs 10,000/MWh cap at 18:00–19:00 (Hour 18); the day’s weighted average was ~Rs 3.29/kWh, with min ~Rs 1.77/kWh.
Inference: The lone cap spike coincided with tight evening supply (sell bids dipped relative to cleared volume), while frequency showed many out-of-band excursions the same day.
Why it matters: One cap hour can distort intraday anchors without signalling system-wide scarcity, complicating RTM block-bidding strategies.

3) Southern Region met peak with zero shortage; frequency stayed near 50 Hz
8On 2025-12-09, SR met 47,282 MW at 19:00 with 0 MW shortage, frequency ~50.04 Hz; off-peak 36,012 MW also met with 0 MW shortage.
Inference: This reliability outcome contrasted with CEA’s 2025-12-08 Southern thermal output running ~-23% vs annual target, implying non-thermal sources and/or interchange carried the slack.
Why it matters: Planning margins increasingly hinge on flexible resources and net-interchange, not just thermal output against plan.

4) North-East 400-kV nodes showed perfect voltage discipline on 2025-12-08
8Multiple NER 400-kV nodes (e.g., Azara, Balipara, Misa) spent 100% of hours within 380–420 kV, with VDI = 0%.
Inference: The next day’s national frequency still saw large out-of-band time, suggesting local voltage compliance does not guarantee all-India frequency stability.
Why it matters: Reactive support and voltage control are working locally even as active-power balancing remains the stress point nationally.

5) Maintenance skew: large units out in the North and West even into December
8As of 2025-12-08, major units remained under planned/forced maintenance, e.g., Rihand 500 MW (overhauling), Talwandi Sabo 660 MW (boiler overhaul), Mahatma Gandhi TPS 660 MW (AM), Rajasthan APS 700 MW (forced major).
Inference: Extended outages into December tighten evening flexibility even when inter-regional ATC shows no binds.
Why it matters: Commitment stacks must discount nameplate capacity; outage persistence can widen DAM–RTM spreads during ramps.

6) PXIL RTM: near-zero liquidity except two evening cap blocks
8On 2025-12-09, only 17:00–18:00 and 18:00–19:00 cleared on PXIL RTM—both at Rs 10.00/kWh—while the rest of the day showed 0 MWh scheduled.
Inference: Price discovery concentrated elsewhere (contrast with IEX’s continuous clears) underscores exchange-specific depth risk for RTM strategies.
Why it matters: Participants depending on PXIL for intraday balancing face execution risk outside a couple of peak blocks.

7) Hydro Day-Ahead block was a no-show across exchanges on 2025-12-09
8HPDAM cleared 0 MWh on both IEX and HPX across all 24 hours on 2025-12-09, despite sizeable sell bids (IEX lists >5,000 MWh offered in many hours).
Inference: Either buy-side interest was absent or hydro was monetised via other products; the result was no hydro-specific day-ahead liquidity.
Why it matters: Without HPDAM depth, hydro flexibility won’t translate into transparent pre-dispatch prices.

8) Week’s softest DAM print came on Sunday; sell bids were the heaviest
8The lowest DAM MCP in the week was Rs 2.58/kWh on 2025-12-07, the same day sell bids peaked at ~596,981 MWh.
Inference: A classic “Sunday surplus” suppressed MCP without any recorded corridor violations two days later—underscoring that surplus supply, not ATC, drove the trough.
Why it matters: Weekend price curves warrant separate bid logic; copying weekday shapes leaves money on the table.

8The combined result is a system under operational discipline but escalating structural obligations the classic MYT tension between efficiency gains and capital deepening.

8The shift signals altered scheduling behaviour—likely driven by improved bilateral availability, moderated demand, or strategic risk-mitigation against exchange volatility.

8The combined picture is one of incremental progress on core frequency metrics but a need to re-target mitigation efforts at a shifting cluster of 765 kV nodes and at the emerging ER–NR (N-1) pocket.

1) Rajasthan’s merit order stack stays flat as coal and gas costs only shuffle at the margins
8Rajasthan still relies on a relatively narrow band of low-cost coal and lignite units for economic supply, while liquid and RLNG peakers sit at the top as expensive insurance rather than everyday workhorses.

2) Rajasthan’s merit stack flattens at the margins as KTPS costs ease and CTPP charges creep up
8For Rajasthan’s utilities and regulators, the picture is of continuity with micro-adjustments: there is no upheaval in the merit order, but the evolving balance among KTPS, CTPP and SSCTPP will influence how much room the system has to optimise procurement around the cheapest coal-based power.

1) WR DSM costs halve but RE QCAs and Maharashtra keep burning money
8The structural tension is clear: tightening state-level discipline has not yet translated into disciplined renewables or a reduction

2) WR SCED flips from net credit in October to sharp payback by late November
8Western Region SCED behaviour between October and the last week of November shows a clean structural swing: the region moves from being a net gainer from the national SCED pool to a net payer, driven by heavier downward re-dispatch in the latest week.

3) WRPC ancillary revenues halve in a fortnight as SCUC windfall concentrates in a handful of NTPC coal stations
8Behaviourally, the data points to persistent over-commitment and corrective down-regulation at the VSTPS/Mouda/NSPCL cluster versus more surgical ancillary use around Solapur and the gas fleet – a structural tension with direct implications for tariff design and future capacity optimisation.

4) Gujarat’s VAR bill halves while Maharashtra and Mundra step up as Western Region’s compensators
8Overall, the fortnight reads like a quiet redistribution of VAR responsibilities, with Gujarat buying headroom, Maharashtra and key NTPC stations monetising more disciplined operation, and a handful of corridors (KSTPS–Korba (W), DNHDD interfaces, Raipur/Bhatapara ICTs) emerging as structural watch-points for WRPC.

5) WRPC tightens the noose on RE generators
8SVG, auxiliary supply and protection lapses pushed to December hard-stop with threat of curtailment and third-party audits
For developers and OEMs, the story is no longer about “work in progress”; it is about whether they can meet the December 2025 compliance wall without triggering regulatory or commercial penalties.

1) Rajasthan stress, islanding delays and testing mandates collide in back-to-back OCC meetings
8Underneath the bureaucratic language, the story is of a northern grid being asked to behave like a high-reliability, RE-heavy, code-compliant system while many states still plan like it is business as usual.

2) IEGC 2023 testing mandate turns modelling into a compliance battlefield
8By quoting Regulation 40 of IEGC 2023 in full and insisting on five-year testing plans via a central Google sheet, regulators are effectively shifting dynamic model validation from an engineering nice-to-have into a regulated obligation.
The commercial subtext is that testing budgets, outage windows and vendor contracts for advanced studies will all need to be baked into utilities’ business plans – or they risk being caught non-compliant post-event.

3) New RE+Storage Procedures: The Next Battleground for Deviation Charges and Waivers
8The new procedure on scheduling, metering, deviation settlement, transmission-charge waivers and REC treatment for RE generators and energy storage systems pushes the northern region into the next phase of market design.
For developers, this document will decide whether hybrid and storage projects can stack revenues efficiently or get tripped up by opaque deviation penalties and complex waiver conditions.

8Behind the drift lies a deeper shift in how the promoter is reallocating execution risk upstream.

Grid-grade storage with VGF and stacked guarantees raises entry bar for 500 MWh node
8CSPDCL is turning a single 125 MW/500 MWh BESS at Khedamara into a test of how far risk can be pushed onto developers under a VGF-backed scheme.
8The RfS blends MoP’s national storage blueprint with a dense web of securities, performance obligations, localisation rules and fire-safety demands that resemble transmission-grade risk, not a renewable add-on.
8The real story lies in how many serious players clear the PQCs and what storage-charge number survives both e-RA and CSPDCL’s final acceptance filter. Details
