Islanded status unresolved for Dadri-Jhajjar even after 5 months
8The Dadri-Jhajjar-A3 islanding scheme remains non-operational since Dec 2023, with no revised target reported in the 231st OCC. This puts 3,700+?MW NCR load at risk during grid split. Delhi SLDC and HVPN failed to furnish updated timelines.
TRAS non-compliance persists: Punjab and Rajasthan report zero MW for months
8Despite repeated directions, Punjab and Rajasthan declared 0 MW TRAS in both 230th and 231st OCC. This violates IEGC norms and weakens grid resilience during frequency excursions.
Tripura’s AUFLS SCADA feedback still missing in 231st OCC
8Tripura SLDC did not submit AUFLS stage-wise response for both April and May. This persistent opacity undermines visibility into underfrequency defense health in a high-risk region.
Critical 400kV Mandola–Panipat line still not restored
8The outage of this key NR corridor line, pending since March 2024, was again deferred in the 231st OCC. Restoration timeline remains vague, potentially affecting N-1 reliability in northern Haryana.
Jharkhand yet to align peak and off-peak demand forecasts
JUSNL failed to update demand forecasting logic as advised in 230th OCC. The gap between peak and off-peak projection persists >20%, hampering reliable ramp planning.

PRE-BID TIE-UP MODEL DEEPENS POWERGRID'S TBCB STRATEGY FOR 765 KV PROJECT
8Unlike conventional EPC invites, this 800+ km line bid is positioned as a pre-bid alignment tool ahead of POWERGRID’s tariff-based offer submission.
8The move gives it a strategic edge in SPV acquisition timing, unseen in similar solar-linked tenders last year.
8Old tenders had fixed milestones: LOA, mobilization, completion.
8This tender, by contrast, starts with a pre-bid alliance and leaves execution milestones open-ended until TBCB outcomes are final.
8The new tender doesn't commit to contract award bidders are tied in only if POWERGRID secures the SPV.
8This contrasts with the 2024 Karnataka tender where full project responsibility and timelines were locked from day one.
8Key specs like tower loading, earthing resistance, and span control which were rigidly defined in last year's bid are now deferred.
8The lean format reflects an intent to keep contractors flexible until POWERGRID’s SPV bid is accepted.

All-India generation shortfall hits 11.43% as southern and eastern regions drag
8Southern region posted a 16.76% shortfall against plan, followed by the east at 14.67%. All-India deviation reached -89.55 MU on June 7 despite summer peak season load.
Over 5,300 MW capacity tripped on June 7 due to forced outages and low fuel
8Thermal and gas units from IGSTPP, Rajiv Gandhi TPS, Salaya TPP, and Kathalguri CCPP were among those out of grid. Multiple fuel-shortage tags indicate coal and gas constraints.
Multiple high-capacity thermal units rejoin grid after outage-triggered downtime
8Chhabra-II, Dadri, Anpara, Kawas, Gandhar, and others synced back on June 7 following issues ranging from turbine vibration and drum level deviations to conservation-induced RSD.
RSD and fuel shortage dominate June 7 maintenance log for major thermal units
8Units at Kudgi, Dadri, Kawas, Gandhar, and Udupi reflect conservation of fuel and reserve shutdown status, suggesting weak grid demand or fuel logistics hurdles.
Nearly 49 GW capacity idled due to outage or stabilization issues across all fuels
8Thermal, hydro, and nuclear segments reported over 48,800 MW under various categories of non-availability as of June 7. Coal alone accounted for over 24.5 GW of outage.
Thermal plants see sharp performance gap with just 74.79% net utilization
8Despite being online, actual generation remained far below capacity especially in lignite and gas segments where net output was just 63.51% and 46.59%, respectively.
Daily generation misses June 7 program by 11.1%, coal and gas fall short
8The thermal segment missed its daily target by over 466 MU, with gas-based units underperforming by more than 23%. Nuclear and hydro helped soften the all-India gap.
Aggregate annual generation lags by over 41,000 MU amid repeated daily gaps
8From April 1 to June 7, monitored units generated 296 BU versus the programmed 337 BU. The largest deficit lies with coal at a 25 BU shortfall year-to-date.
Hydro outperforms on daily basis, but still lags on seasonal generation
8Hydro achieved 510 MU on June 7, ahead of schedule, but year-to-date output still trails by nearly 78 BU as monsoon inflows remain subdued across basins.
Low demand and operational constraints keep over 20 thermal units in RSD
8Reserve shutdown and low scheduling tags for Dadri, Udupi, Gandhinagar, Anpara, Panki, and others indicate systemic demand weakness or ramping bottlenecks.

Power share snapshot: Allocation data for states as on 31 May 2025
8The Ministry of Power has released fresh data showing firm and unallocated power allocations to each Indian state.
8Useful for DISCOMs, traders, and developers seeking real-time power matrix insights.
NTPC dominates thermal allocations across states in latest grid share
8NTPC’s central thermal plants continue to be the backbone of supply across all regions, with significant allocations to UP, Maharashtra, and Gujarat.
8Unallocated quotas remain available under MoP control.
Southern grid: Telangana, TN, and Karnataka see tight allocation balances
8Southern states have little headroom in their firm allocations, with unallocated margins squeezed.
8This raises risks during peak demand seasons, especially if renewables underperform.
Hydro power allocation: North-East and Himachal gain edge in grid support
8Hydro plants like NHPC and NEEPCO continue to provide firm allocations to hilly states and neighbouring regions.
8Seasonal surpluses likely to influence short-term market rates.
Eastern region grid: Jharkhand and Odisha leverage local generation
8Eastern states benefit from proximity to generating stations with lower transmission dependency.
8The region also holds stable allocations from NTPC Kahalgaon and Farakka units.
Railways continue to get dedicated allocations from central generators
8Indian Railways retains exclusive allocations from major stations like Dadri, Vindhyachal, and Rihand.
8This ensures priority supply to traction operations amidst growing freight targets.
Western region allocations reveal strong balance in Gujarat and MP
8Gujarat, MP, and Maharashtra continue to enjoy strong central support with firm shares across NTPC and NPCIL assets.
8Maharashtra also benefits from Tarapur and Ratnagiri allocations.
Unallocated power pool: Strategic reserve held by Ministry for dynamic support
8Each regional pool retains a margin of unallocated power under MoP's discretion.
8These are often invoked during peak load, grid instability, or to support deficit states on short notice.
UT allocations stable, but Lakshadweep and Daman see marginal adjustments
8While most Union Territories retain their earlier shares, minor rebalancing is seen in Lakshadweep and Daman allocations.
8Essential for small-grid power reliability and diesel displacement.
Nuclear allocations spread across Tarapur, Kaiga, Kudankulam and more
8NPCIL units contribute a firm, albeit smaller, share of grid supply. States like Karnataka, Tamil Nadu, and Maharashtra benefit from dedicated nuclear energy allocations supporting baseload stability.

Price ceiling breach persists across segments as MCP hits Rs 10000 in DAM and GDAM
8Day-ahead and green day-ahead markets continued to clear at the Rs 10000/MWh cap for multiple early-hour blocks, reflecting sustained evening-into-midnight demand stress
RTM volumes surge with widening price volatility from Rs 2400 to Rs 7949
8Real-time market cleared nearly 66 GWh on June 10 with hourly weighted MCPs swinging sharply, spotlighting intraday balancing stress and gaming risks
Hydro supply remains underutilized in GDAM blocks despite firm solar sell offers
8With zero hydro scheduled across many green blocks and dominant solar clearance patterns, flexible hydro potential remained locked amid transmission or dispatch bottlenecks
High-price hydro market sees single-hour activity spike but mostly remains idle
8HPDAM volumes were negligible for most of the day, with only a few early and late blocks clearing Rs 12138/MWh, pointing to structural mismatch in high-price bidder expectations
Excessive solar sell bids in GDAM met with muted MCVs, revealing market saturation
8Massive early-morning solar availability (over 3,000 MWh in some blocks) was met with modest clearance, underlining grid absorption limits or demand-side constraints
Buy bids in DAM crash by over 60% during solar peak while sell bids triple
8Between 00:00 and 09:00, DAM saw purchase interest fall from 20 GW to under 10 GW while sell bids exploded past 30 GW, compressing prices down to Rs 1379.07Evening ramp-up drives DAM back to Rs 10000 but with limited volumes cleared
8Despite a demand revival post-19:00, the market cleared only 2.8 GWh in each block as sell liquidity dried up, pushing MCPs to the upper ceiling with thin volume realization
RTM shows growing buyer aggression with several late morning blocks clearing near 7 GW
8Midday sessions in RTM recorded some of the day’s highest MCVs with MCPs in the Rs 2700+ range, pointing to rising use of RTM for both balancing and speculative dispatch
