04 Sep 2023 Evaluate

Indian Energy Exchange (IEX) has achieved 8,469 million units (MU) total electricity volume in August 2023, registering an increase of 21% on Year-on-Year (YoY) basis. IEX attained 8,865 MU overall volume, including green market trade of 242.3 MU, ancillary market trade of 40MU, 2.53 lakh RECs (equivalent to 253 MU) and 1.03 lakh ESCerts (equivalent to 103 MU). The overall volume traded during the month increased to 13.3% on YoY basis.

In August 2023, the country experienced its lowest August rainfall since 1901, resulting in hot weather conditions. This, in turn, led to an unprecedented surge in electricity demand for the month. According to data published by Grid-India, the country's electricity consumption was recorded at 152 billion units (BU) in August 2023, an increase of 16% year-on-year. Notably, on August 31, 2023, the country witnessed an all-time high peak demand of 236 GW along with the highest ever single day energy consumption of 5126 MU. Due to the combination of higher demand and supply constraints, prices on the Indian Energy Exchange during the month reached Rs 6.89/unit, marking a 33% year-on-year increase.

IEX is India’s premier energy exchange providing a nationwide, automated trading platform for physical delivery of electricity, renewable energy and certificates including renewable energy certificates as well as the energy saving certificates.
