In the midst of increasing power demand, coal stock in 57 ‘critical’ plants

New Delhi: Coal Stock in 57 Thermal Stations representing around 21% of the total capacity of the country’s generation has become ‘critical’ or ‘super critical’ amid increasing electrical demand, encouraging the Ministry of Power to regulate the stock supply of the week shares The day so that supplies can be built in the unit faced by crunch.
Electricity authority documents are showing five plants with ‘zero’ coal stock and running on daily inventory.
Six factories have stock buffers a day, while 15 plants have inventory for three days, 13 plants for four days, four factories for five days, three stations for six days and two units have stock for a week.
Industry executives blame low fuel stocks in poor supply and lack of advanced planning to anticipate increasing power demand.
But India Coal Ltd., which accounted for 80% of domestic production, blaming a decline in inventory in the generator who failed to heed his advice since October 2020 to reach summer and monsoon when demanding nails.
Cil executives told the Tii company supplying 196.6 MT (million tons) coal to the electricity sector in the April-August period, or 6.5% more than 184 MT in the same period of pre-pandemic 2019.
“Coal stock in power plants is 24 MT at the end of July, almost equivalent to shares in the previous five years.
It could be higher if the generator is not setttake, “executive said.
The argument shows that no one is ready to rebound sharply in power demand or emphasize renewable energy.
Power demand rose 8% and 12% in the third and fourth quarter 2020-21 and continued, soaring 18% in July.
As a result, the average plant load factor of thermal plants also increased above 60% from around 52% because hydel production fell.
Alok Kumar’s Secretary founded the Core Management Committee with representatives from the Ministry of Power, CEA and Cil for monitoring the daily situation.
The ministry statement says the power plant has been asked to send a request to load priority or supply problems with centralized email ID so that they can be addressed immediately.
