Available transmission capacity (ATC) in the west corridor to the north was about 22 gigawatts (GW) against the actual flow of 24.14 GW on June 15, showed the announcement of Grid India Corp. ATC is a volume of energy that can be safely provided between two points.
The National Power Grid network has written to generators and the distribution of electricity (DiscomS) in the northern area to reduce the withdrawal or increase the generation.

After alleviating the temperatures in May, the thermal wave occurred in June, which would increase demand, mostly in northern India, which led to overload, said Vikram V, vice president and group leader, Corporate Ratings, ICRA Ltd.
Collapse of grids is the worst scenario. Almost 620 million people in 19 countries and three unions went without electricity for hours, when the northern grid collapsed 31 July 2012. In a wider outage of the northern, eastern and northeast grids 1 August 2012 decreased.
India now has a unified national grid.
Vikram said that overdrawing examples were common by 2014-25, but have since been refused. Usually, in the case of overload, the grid operator can direct tools to reduce the collection and avert any impact on the grid. Problems occur when discomings draw more than scheduled performance between interstate grid to satisfy high demand, he said.
The controller notification that addresses entities in the northern region “excessive settlement or insufficiently injection” strength to the network said: “The following regional entities that are downstream from an overloaded corridor are recommended to reduce their drawings/increase their generation to this DEMONGEST system.”

Grid India told public instruments in Western and South India to increase demand or reduce production to postpone the corridor.
“This is a warning of the warning of overload fees and issued in accordance with the Central Regulatory Commission for Electricity (Measure to Miture Operation in real time) of 2009,” the announcement said.
The highest energy demand in the country was hit by 241 GW, the highest this year, 11th June. That day, the top demand in the capital of the national capital was 8 231 MW and was approaching the record of 8,656 MW recorded last year.
Top demand on June 15 was 226 GW, also at the higher end.
Grid enlargement
Experts indicate that the grid expansion is the key to reducing overload incidents. More when the installed capacity of renewable energy sources increases.
Although the government has an ambitious travel map to expand the grid, progress was slow in obtaining land and issues of the right to travel. Data from the Central Electricity Office (CEA) showed that only 8,830 circuits (CKM) of transmission lines were added in FY25, which is 37.8% less than 14.203 ckm in the previous fiscal and short objectives of 15,253 ckm.
Mint previously announced that clouds over the huge line of North India in May caused sudden dipts in solar energy, which increased concerns about the stability of the energy network, which serves millions of Indians.

In February, the national lattice operator asked all electricity companies to be alert and supply energy to maintain the stability of the grid.
The analysis of the International Energy Agency (IEA) said in March that countries that seek to prevent or deal with the overload of the grid should accept proactive access to the extension of the grid by preliminary planning and regulatory reforms that motivate investments in compliance with the country’s energy policy.
Overload can also be alleviated by implementing the network increasing technology, increasing transparency to available capacity and creating regulatory frames, and clear price signals that unlock flexibility from consumers, manufacturers and energy modification.
