In 2005, India couldn’t meet 12.3% of its own peak demand. By 2007, the shortfall had widened to nearly 16.6%, and close to 18,000 megawatts were unavailable.

The early 2000s were years of genuine electricity poverty. Factories ran on diesel backup generators as a matter of routine. Homes in smaller cities and villages received power for a few hours a day.

Distribution, which is the final link between the grid and the household, was historically the most neglected and most corrupt part of the chain. Electricity theft was widespread, billing was unreliable, and state electricity boards were financially broken.

Reforms here were uneven and politically difficult, but schemes like UDAY, launched in 2015, restructured the debt of state distribution companies and pushed them toward financial viability. The Saubhagya scheme, from 2017, connected the last unelectrified households, around 25 million of them, to the grid by 2019.

India’s solar capacity in 2010 was negligible. Today, it is measured in hundreds of gigawatts. The price of solar panels fell globally by over 90% across this period, and India made a strategic bet to capture that cost decline at scale. Rooftop solar programmes brought electricity generation to homes, factories, and commercial buildings. And the International Solar Alliance, co-founded by India in 2015, helped build global momentum.

The timing proved critical. India’s peak electricity demand now falls in the afternoon, driven by air conditioning in an increasingly hot country. Solar generates hardest in exactly those hours.

On April 25, around 12:30 pm, solar plants and rooftop systems together supplied roughly one-third of all electricity being generated at that moment. Across the full day, solar’s share was around 22%.

India today draws 52% of its electricity from non-fossil sources. More than half of every unit generated comes from sun, water, wind, or nuclear.

The deficit percentage, which once sat stubbornly above 10%, has now collapsed. Since 2024, it has been effectively zero.

Reliable electricity means a small business owner does not budget for a diesel generator as a fixed cost. It means an electric vehicle is practical for someone who cannot afford to be stranded. It means a student in a rural home can study at night without planning around power cuts. It means a hospital runs its equipment on the assumption that the supply will hold.

Electricity reliability is, in the end, a quiet form of equity. When the grid is unreliable, those with money buy backup. Those without simply go without. India's closing of its power deficit means that the gap no longer falls along economic lines.

The country that once rationed darkness now delivers light on demand, at the moment of highest need, to everyone connected to the grid.

That took two decades and thousands of infrastructure decisions. It is not the kind of achievement that fits in a headline. But on an April afternoon, when 256 gigawatts flowed, and nothing broke, it showed.

@varun067 Marketing the way it’s done today is highly inefficient and leads to wastage.

Everyone thinks they’re sniping but everyone just carpet bombs ..

Another perspective: we Indians love serving.

Our gods, country, guests .. and our lords, and anyone with fine silver to throw at us.

1.4B great, and all just serving.

Thoughts from DP World India:
-I had a little trepidation before coming to India but I honestly had a great time this week. The golf course was super unique, but played into my strengths and everyone treated us great. I can’t thank DP World enough for inviting me and hosting an awesome tournament.
-Special shoutout to the Oberoi hotel. Easily top 5 hotels I’ve ever stayed, mainly because of the staff. There’s a higher staff to guest ratio than anywhere I’ve been and every one of them treats you like a king.
-Food was great. I never had the Delhi belly and there was lots of spice in the food which I loved.

Mockery of a system.

We are seeing institutional reforms in years — and this is what they do to its messengers.

He’s on the PM EAC. Imagine even he can’t question the “mi lords”.

We live in a system that feeds on itself.

BIG BREAKING: Maoists announce ceasefire and giving up arms. Statement issued from CPI Maoists Spokesperson Abhay. Home Minister Amit Shah had earlier announced March 2026 as deadline for security forces to completely end Maoists from Indian soil. Big win for security forces.

[Deepinder Goyal @deepigoyal]

India has tried building gas turbine engines before. And we’ve come close.

At LAT, we want to get past the finish line. So we’re putting together a propulsion research team in Bangalore, focused solely on building gas turbine engines from scratch. Lightweight. Efficient. Flight-ready. Made in India.

What’s different this time?

We’re giving engineers the freedom to think, build, break, and repeat. Our dedicated research centre — with labs for combustion, turbomachinery, thermal systems, and materials, will give engineers the space and freedom to iterate fast, and get to real outcomes at a speed which is unprecedented in the industry.

Also, this team will be led by engineers. No waiting around for approvals from "business" people. No chasing slides or meetings. Just hands-on problem solving, running bench tests, working with suppliers, building hardware from scratch — and pushing the limits of design and physics every day.

It won’t be easy. But if it works, it changes everything. A full engine stack, built locally. Powering STOL aircraft. UAVs. Remote connectivity. Self-reliance.
If you’ve ever built turbines, rotors, control systems — or anything close — and want to be part of something that could one day, rewrite history, write to us at [email protected]
