233.4 GW generated right now — 30% from clean sources

Wind, solar, hydro and nuclear vs thermal and gas, sampled through the past 7 days. 2087 readings. Start Wed, 12 Aug, 18:23 IST · End Wed, 19 Aug, 18:23 IST.

India · generated energy · today

4213 GWh generated so far today

Energy is power over time — the area under NPP's reported generation curve, integrated across the actual sample gaps. 38% came from clean sources — versus 3,131 GWh across all of yesterday .

India · clean power share · today

30% of India's power is clean right now

Renewables + hydro + nuclear vs coal and gas over the past 7 days. Start Wed, 12 Aug, 18:23 IST · End Wed, 19 Aug, 18:23 IST. It peaks at 52% around 14 Aug, 13:15 (solar midday) and bottoms near 23% at 13 Aug, 05:25 when the sun's down and fossil ramps up.

India · carbon intensity · estimate

668 gCO2/kWh estimated right now

Today ranged from 464 gCO2/kWh at 11:29 (cleanest) to 717 gCO2/kWh at 05:07 (dirtiest), 19 Aug IST.

This is not an official CEA measurement. It's a live estimate: standard international (IPCC/IEA) direct-combustion emission factors — coal/thermal ≈ 961 gCO2/kWh, gas ≈ 483 gCO2/kWh, hydro/nuclear/wind/solar ≈ 0 — applied to India's live official fuel mix from NPP/MERIT. The CEA's own CO2 Baseline Database is a single blended annual figure and does not vary with the fuel mix, so it can't produce a number like this one.
