Short-Term Power Prices Likely to Remain Range Bound

Short-term power prices would remain range-bound at INR3.75-4.25/kWh in FY19 (FY18: INR3.25/kWh), according to India Ratings and Research.

Ind-Ra believes that in the event of rising demand and lack of domestic coal availability, imported coal usage could increase in India. This is likely to determine the marginal cost of electricity production and, thus, could keep short-term power prices high.

A webinar is organised to discuss the following factors contributing to the range-bound short-term power prices:
- Continued dependence on coal-based power plants for power generation
- Increase in power demand
- Lower-than-required domestic coal availability
- Imported coal price
