Power Market 2.0: Market Coupling & Electricity Derivatives Post-Webinar Report
Power Market 2.0 brought together 600+ industry leaders, regulators, and academics to discuss India’s next big leap in electricity markets. The event explored two major reforms—market coupling to unify prices and optimize power flow, and electricity derivatives to enable risk management and attract renewable investments. Key regulators (CERC, CEA, Grid India) confirmed pilot successes and outlined cautious but firm steps toward Day-Ahead Market (DAM) coupling by January 2026 and the expansion of futures trading. While stakeholders debated challenges—standardization, liquidity, governance, and balancing competition with uniformity—the consensus was clear: these reforms mark a crucial step toward a transparent, efficient, and investor-friendly power sector capable of unlocking India’s Rs.40 lakh crore opportunity and accelerating its clean energy transition.
