India · generated energy · today

2896 GWh generated so far today

Energy is power over time — the area under NPP's reported generation curve, integrated across the actual sample gaps. 28% came from clean sources — versus 5,059 GWh across all of yesterday .

India · clean power share · today

47% of India's power is clean right now

Renewables + hydro + nuclear vs coal and gas over the past 7 days. Start Thu, 01 Oct, 13:01 IST · End Thu, 08 Oct, 12:58 IST. It peaks at 50% around 02 Oct, 11:01 (solar midday) and bottoms near 15% at 08 Oct, 02:47 when the sun's down and fossil ramps up.

India · carbon intensity · estimate

500 gCO2/kWh estimated right now

Today ranged from 496 gCO2/kWh at 12:11 (cleanest) to 801 gCO2/kWh at 04:23 (dirtiest), 8 Oct 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.
