A total of zero point one one eight million (mn) renewable energy certificates were traded during the month, representing a decline of 59.4 per cent year on year. National energy consumption reached 154 billion (bn) units in April, up four per cent, and peak demand touched 256 gigawatts (GW).

Strong Day?Ahead demand pushed buy bids up 31 per cent and sell bids up 35 per cent, with DAM volumes at four point six two four billion (bn) units versus four point two five four billion (bn) units a year earlier. The average market-clearing price in DAM stood at Rs. five point two six per unit, one per cent higher.
