02 Mar 2026 Evaluate

The government in its latest data has said that power consumption in the country increased slightly by 1.86 percent to 132.99 billion units (BU) in February 2026 from 130.56 BU a year ago, as demand for heating appliances such as geysers and blowers declined due to higher-than usual temperature. According to data, the peak power demand met or the highest supply during February, also rose slightly to 243.15 Gigawatt (GW) from 238.06 GW recorded in February 2025. 

The peak power demand touched an all-time high of about 250 GW in May 2024, surpassing the earlier all-time high of 243.27 GW registered in September 2023. However, during last summer (April 2025 onwards), the peak power demand was 242.77 GW in June, 2025. As per the Indian Meteorological Department (IMD), the rainfall all over India in February was the lowest since 2001. 

Moreover, there were no cold wave conditions or cold days in February. The absence of any active western disturbances and lack of their interactions/confluences with easterly winds are the major reasons for subdued snow/rainfall in the month. According to IMD, in February 2026, India experienced the 10th highest maximum temperature, third highest minimum temperature, and fifth highest mean temperature since 1901.
