According to government data, 8,133 gigawatt-hours of solar energy were curtailed or reduced between April and June 2026 due to transmission issues and the need to ensure grid stability.
This imbalance highlights the critical importance of coordinating the commissioning of generation projects with power lines and substations to guarantee electricity delivery to consumption centers.
In the capital of India, at the RE: DIALOGUES 2026 event, energy sector experts stated that India must synchronize its power generation plans with the time required for transmission infrastructure construction to reliably and affordably meet future energy demand.
