8Repeated reminders, half-done audits, and tendering delays dominate NERPC’s latest minutes.
8With most states still drafting bid documents instead of testing relays, the region’s compliance remains more paper than protection. Details
One flood, many lessons: How a substation deluge exposed India’s fragile frequency backbone
We narrate the day the grid held its breath
And the lessons that were learnt|

Reflexes that failed
GridIndia’s fresh Frequency Response Performance data reveal sluggish reflexes across the board. When national frequency dipped, most states stood still, exposing how weak automatic controls can turn a distant fault into a crisis.

The grid’s missing reflex: From flooded substations to silent relays
India’s Power System Is Learning the Cost of Hesitation A flash flood nearly isolated an entire region. Weeks later, national data showed that when frequency dipped, most states did nothing. And beneath both crises lies a quieter decay—old lines out for years, islanding schemes half-tested, and relays that may never trip when they should. Together, they tell one story: India’s grid doesn’t just need more capacity—it needs faster reflexes, and a discipline that can match the volatility of its climate and its ambition. Details

After decades of imported technology failures, high-ash Indian coal is now dubbed as fit for gasification, with fluidized-bed systems emerging as the frontrunner.
8The verdict: it wasn’t bad coal, it was bad technology.
here is also a claim that India’s 2030 target of 100 million tonnes of coal gasification now rests on three pillars: viability-gap funding, assured coal supply, and synchronized CCUS integration.
We tell you why this is more hype than real Details

1) SCUC swung both ways on 2025-10-27
8SCUC awards moved in both directions: Up Scheduled 84,802 MWh; Down Scheduled −78,372 MWh (net +6,430 MWh).
Inference: Net positive SCUC points to tighter supply in selected blocks even as other hours required down-dispatch; cross-check with DAM/RTM snapshots for those hours.
Why it matters: Ancillary swings add procurement cost and scheduling risk; even a Rs 0.30/kWh deviation on net 6,430 MWh implies ~Rs 1.93 crore value at stake.

2) RTM showed heavy bids but modest clear in pre-dawn block
8At 06:15–06:30 IST on 2025-10-27, RTM recorded Purchase Bids ~14,076.50 MWh and cleared volume ~3,684.11 MWh.
Inference: Sell-side depth and/or corridor limits likely capped match rates despite high buy interest; compare with System Reliability Indices to test transmission non-binding in the same window.
Why it matters: Large bid-to-clear gaps can whipsaw block strategies; unserved bids translate to reshaping costs in later blocks.

3) HPX RTM depth vanished block-to-block late evening
8Multiple 15-minute RTM blocks on HPX printed 0.00 for Purchase Bid, Sell Bid and MCV (e.g., 23:00–24:00 on 2025-10-27).
Inference: Cross-venue liquidity asymmetry persisted even as IEX remained active in adjacent windows.
Why it matters: Portfolios relying on dual-venue execution need contingency on IEX/other products when HPX depth is episodic.

4) Hydro-peaking auction found sellers at midnight, buyers later
8HPDAM showed sizeable sell bids with zero purchase bids/clears across several early blocks (e.g., 24:00, Sell ~3,690 MW; Purchase/Clear 0.00).
Inference: Willingness to pay for peaking rights concentrates in shoulder/peak hours, not overnight; align hydro offers with demand-priced windows.
Why it matters: Mis-timed hydro flexibility leaves money on the table; shifting to premium blocks can lift realisations without additional water draw.

5) RE day rose day-on-day despite late-October shoulder
8All-India RE total increased from ~15,396.74 MU (2025-10-25) to ~16,045.12 MU (2025-10-26).
Inference: Weekend/shoulder-season profiles still delivered a net RE uplift, easing thermal ramp pressure in daytime blocks.
Why it matters: Higher RE totals reduce average portfolio MCPs; even Rs 0.10/kWh lower weighted price on ~16,045 MU implies ~Rs 160.45 crore system-wide saving.

6) System reliability proxies stayed benign on 2025-10-27
8System Reliability Indices page shows 0.00 for ATC and (N-1) proxy violations across listed inter-regional corridors.
Inference: With non-binding proxies, price/frequency outcomes likely reflected fundamentals rather than transmission scarcity—cross-check against RTM/DAM blocks above.
Why it matters: When corridors don’t bind, block-shape and demand-curve strategies dominate returns; transmission-hedge premia should be sized down.

7) Gas units with high ECR left out of SCUC through the day
8SCUC/ECR table lists gas stations (e.g., SUGEN, DGEN) with “1–96” block span, ECR ~Rs 12.72–12.74/kWh, and “NO” (not must-run).
Inference: High ECR kept gas out of merit across all 96 blocks, pushing portfolios to markets/ancillary for flexibility.
Why it matters: Persistent gas out-of-merit magnifies exposure to RTM/DAM volatility; budgets should reflect premium balancing costs.

8) VDI stayed around the 400-point handle on 2025-10-26
8VDI page cites headline values near ~402.89/397.94/400.51 (region/day summary).
Inference: Variation within a narrow band implies orderly schedule-vs-draw alignment despite weekend ramps.
Why it matters: Lower VDI reduces DSM leakage; scheduling teams can run leaner reserves without breaching error bands.

OPTCL extends Ramkrushnapur 400kV GIS bid deadline by 14 days amid OEM alignment delays
8OPTCL has pushed the submission deadline for its 2×500MVA 400/220kV GIS substation at Ramkrushnapur from 27 October to 10 November 2025.
8The twoweek extension likely stems from vendor coordination and documentation bottlenecks typical in large GIS tenders.
8The move suggests OPTCL aims to safeguard competition before closing bids for this critical easterncorridor node. Details
NVVN calls 500kW IIM Udaipur solar EPC tender under tight eligibility and site-visit rules

REC extends Mekhali 400kV TBCB bid deadline to 3 November after 25 rounds of extensions
8REC has moved the Mekhali 400kV substation and line tender deadline to 3 November 2025 marking the 25th shift since April.
8All milestones from technical bid opening to SPV handover are reset through 1 December.
8The change reflects persistent coordination lags and ongoing duediligence within Karnataka’s intrastate TBCB pipeline. Details
Hampapura 400kV TBCB tender faces 25th extension as REC shifts deadline to 3 November 2025
8The bid window for REC’s flagship intrastate 400kV substation project in Mandya district has been pushed yet again this time by 10 days to 3 November
8The 25th revision underscores tepid participation and persistent prebid clarifications
8Analysts say the delay compresses evaluation timelines and signals limited bidder depth in Karnataka’s ongoing transmission rollout Details

Sixth extension pushes NEEPCO’s Tato-I hydro consultancy tender into late October 2025
8NEEPCO’s GeMbased consultancy tender for the 186MW TatoI Hydro Electric Project has now been extended six times closing 27 October 2025.
8Its milestonebased payment model marks a major break from timelinked PM contracts|.
8The prolonged tender cycle reflects an industry struggling to price risk under outputdriven governance. Details
8The submission deadline for its 1×800MW Yamunanagar ash handling EPC tender has been pushed ahead the fifth extension in as many weeks.
8The package introduces a ±20 percent price adjustment clause and relaxes civil and structural qualification windows to seven years.
8While the changes may broaden bidder participation the expanded interface scope and O&M liability keep execution risk high. Details
1) ATC and (N-1) stayed green three days straight
8All monitored inter-regional corridors reported zero hours of ATC and (N-1) proxy violations on 2025-10-24, 2025-10-25 and 2025-10-26.
Inference: With transmission non-binding across consecutive days, price and balancing signals likely came from fundamentals rather than corridor scarcity (cross-link: exchange snapshots below).
Why it matters: When constraints don’t bind for full days, hedges based on block spreads are more forecastable; trading desks can size with greater confidence.

2) DAM weekly price band stayed tight, sub-Rs 3/kWh
8Across 2025-10-20 to 2025-10-26, IEX DAM weighted MCP ranged from about Rs 1.94/kWh to Rs 2.86/kWh, with daily scheduled volumes ~1.52–1.72 lakh MWh.
Inference: The narrow weekly band, alongside three congestion-free days, points to supply-demand shape—not transmission—as the driver of settlement.
Why it matters: Portfolios can lean more on calendar-spread and block-shape strategies when weekly MCP variance compresses.

3) RTM showed pronounced early-hour price skew on 2025-10-24
8On 2025-10-24 at hour 00, RTM MCP printed ~Rs 3.38/kWh, easing to ~Rs 2.73/kWh by hour 02 as cleared volumes held in the 4.3–5.1 GWh range.
Inference: Overnight demand softness likely met adequate sell-side depth, allowing MCP to compress intra-night without transmission binds (see reliability indices).
Why it matters: Short-tenor positions can harvest the midnight-to-pre-dawn slope; risk teams should pre-authorise sized sells in these hours.

4) HPX RTM printed long stretches of zero MCV
8HPX RTM shows multiple consecutive 15-minute blocks with Purchase Bid, Sell Bid, and MCV all at 0.00 MW on 2025-10-24 (e.g., 00:00–02:00, several blocks).
Inference: Depth asymmetry across exchanges persisted despite active RTM trading on IEX in the same window.
Why it matters: Participants relying on multi-venue execution need IEX contingency when HPX RTM depth vanishes block-to-block.

5) HPDAM had sell interest but cleared zero across early blocks
8IEX HPDAM shows sizeable sell bids (≈2,859–2,979 MW) but zero purchase bids and zero clears across numerous blocks starting 00:00 on 2025-10-24.
Inference: Hydro flexibility sought a price but found no demand at those hours, indicating limited willingness to pay for peaking rights overnight.
Why it matters: Hydro portfolios may need to re-time offers toward shoulder/peak to monetise flexibility; otherwise scarcity rents are left on the table.

6) Frequency quality metrics were benign on 2025-10-25
8All-India average frequency was ~50.002 Hz with Frequency Variation Index ~0.0259 and standard deviation ~0.0509; FDI printed ~18.7.
Inference: A relatively centred frequency profile aligns with non-binding transmission proxies, pointing to balanced scheduling on the day.
Why it matters: Lower tail risk in frequency reduces DSM leakage; scheduling desks can carry leaner reserves during benign profiles.

7) Coal-rich plant outlier: Panipat held ~240% normative stock
8On 2025-10-25, Panipat TPS reported “% of Stock vis-à-Normative” ≈240% with ~21 days of normative stock and ~9.6 (‘000 T) receipt that day.
Inference: Inventory cushions at certain stations remained high even as others chased daily receipts—an allocation divergence worth tracking into shoulder months.
Why it matters: Elevated site-level stocks tie up working capital; re-balancing supply chains can lower carrying costs for state portfolios.

8) Reserve shutdowns concentrated at Haryana units (coal)
8On 2025-10-23, Panipat TPS (Unit-6 210 MW; Unit-7 250 MW) and Rajiv Gandhi TPS (Unit-1 600 MW) were in reserve shutdown/standby.
Inference: Together with Panipat’s high coal stock (above), some units appear parked despite ample inventory—likely merit-order or demand-shape driven.
Why it matters: Extended reserve shutdowns shift portfolios toward market purchases and ancillary shape; budgeting should reflect higher variable procurement risk.

DERC’s FY22 true-up shields consumers this year, but BRPL, BYPL and TPDDL will wait to recover dues later. The backlog is now too large to ignore.
8With Rs 1,573 crore in new Regulatory Assets, DERC has chosen to push the pain forward rather than raise tariffs today. The question now is whether future bills get steeper—and and how soon.
8The regulator has frozen consumer tariffs for now, but the gap between cost and recovery keeps widening. FY22 shows that the capital’s power model is still running on future promises, not present cash.
8No tariff shock today. But with rising power purchase costs, new RPO liabilities and only partial cost recovery, the sector is one bad year away from a fresh cash-flow crunch. Details
