BUSINESS UPDATE
On the power sector front, electricity demand at 393 BUs during the third quarter was higher by 3% YoY. For the 9MFY25, country’s electricity demand at 1,279 BU was higher by 5% over the same period last year.
On the fuel side, there has been ample availability of coal this fiscal. Coal is available at a nominal premium of 10% to 20% under the Shakti B8 auction and coal inventory today stands
for about 19 days.
Adequate availability of fuel in this quarter led to higher liquidity on the exchange platform as sell quantum increased by 62% YoY in the day ahead market leading to softening of prices. For Q3FY’25, prices in the Day Ahead market averaged Rs 3.71/unit, a decline of nearly 26% year-on-year. These prices presented an opportunity for Discoms and Commercial & Industrial consumers to meet their demand at a competitive price and to replace their costlier power by procuring through exchanges.
During the quarter, IEX achieved electricity traded volume of 30.5 BU, marking a 15.9% year on year increase and traded 26.52 lakh Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs) recording a 31% year on year increase.
Further, CERC has issued draft procedures for trading of Carbon Credit Certificates for both obligated as well as non-obligated entities through power exchanges. This should result in trading of Carbon Credit Certificates on IEX in the near future.
On the gas market front, the Indian Gas Exchange (IGX) traded total volume of 162 lakh MMBtu for Q3 FY25 as compared to 84 lakh MMBtu in Q3FY24, a growth of 93% YoY.
