India's electricity consumption reached a new high this summer, but the transmission grid remained stable due to increased generation from renewables and abundant fuel stocks at coal-fired power plants. The grid operated with a closer balance between generation and load, reducing the risk of power outages. Generation from wind and solar farms increased, and improved fuel availability led to an increase in coal-fired units' output. India has benefited from the significant growth in renewable capacity installed in recent years, while also prioritizing increased coal production to meet summer peak demand.
