India mandates full capacity for coal plants
The Indian government has ordered more than 100 coal-fired power plants, each with a minimum capacity of 50 megawatts, to operate at full capacity from October 1st through the end of the year. This move aims to meet the anticipated surge in electricity demand in the coming months. The decision comes amid critically low coal stockpiles at approximately 40% of the plants and coincides with increased demand driven by the effects of the El Niño phenomenon, which has raised temperatures. Additionally, companies have been instructed to sell excess electricity through energy exchanges, with a requirement to submit weekly reports on production and consumption. The goal is to strengthen electricity supplies during the high-demand period and reduce stockpile pressures.
