#9PM9minute Interesting insights of grid balancing from today's event. Frm 7.15 pm share of coal generation (85GW) started going down and simultaneously hydro (20GW) generation share started increasing. Total demand - 120GW.
Source: @BrookingsIndia http://carbontracker.in 
At 9 pm Total demand - 106GW. Coal down to 72GW, hydro to 18GW, Gas to 7GW and RE was 3.3GW
At 9.10 pm Total Demand down to 88GW. Coal down to 68GW, hydro to 8.7GW, Gas to 4.6 and RE to 1.6GW (probably curtailed). India's grid balancing King - Hydro and to some extent Gas (limited availability). Amazing job done by grid operators @PosocoIndia
Around 9.50 pm Grid was still recovering. Demand back to 112GW. Coal started going up (80GW), hydro back to 18GW, gas back to 7GW and RE back to 3.5GW (back to grid). Coal plants ramping duration more than 2 hours.
