Directions under Section 11 to the Generating Companies having Domestic Coal based Plants supplying Electricity under Section 63 of the Electricity Act, 2003 (dated – 26.05.2022) – Ministry of Power.

  • It has been observed that due to sharp increase in electricity demand some areas, in the country, are facing power shortage. With soaring power demand, the generation needs to be maximised.
  • Looking into the emergent situation due to rise in demand and non-adequate supply of domestic coal, all States and Gencos based on domestic coal have been directed to import at least 10 percent of their requirement of coal for blending.
  • However, it has been observed that import of coal has not been at the required level. In light of the present emergent circumstances, and in continuation of the directions to import coal for blending, using the power under Section 11 of the Electricity Act, 2003, hereby issues directions (refer attachment for further details).
