All India peak electricity demand met crossed 200 gigawatts (GW) today, according to Minister of State (Independent Charge) RK Singh. Power consumption in the country surged nearly 10% in June to 115.39 billion units (BU) compared to a year ago, according to power ministry data. Power consumption had slumped to 105.08 BU in June 2020, mainly due to fewer economic activities amid COVID-induced restrictions.
