Glow slow this Diwali! India’s peak power demand drops slightly

India’s peak power demand during Diwali saw a slight decrease this year, a departure from the usual festival surge. While Monday’s peak reached 180.14 GW, down from last year’s 182.87 GW, overall consumption also dipped. This trend contrasts with higher projected summer demand, which was not fully realized due to favorable weather conditions.
