During FY25, the country's power demand grew by 4.4% on a year-on-year basis.

Given the increase in demand, the Ministry of Power took proactive measures throughout the year to enhance power supply like extending the directive for imported coal-based power plants to operate at full capacity, sale of surplus un-requisitioned power on power exchanges, ensuring the availability of gas-based plants and higher availability of generating units to meet peak demand.

These measures along with ample availability of coal with coal inventory around 21 days and no loss of generation, in the fiscal year 2025, ensured sufficient supply liquidity in the system.
