India Ramps Up Coal Supplies to Record High as Power Crisis Looms

India's coal-fired power plants are receiving a record 2.6 million tons of coal daily, up from critically low stock levels that had forced 96 plants to operate with only three days of fuel, as higher electricity demand driven by lower hydro and wind output forces a supply increase.

Why it matters. The record coal supply increase highlights a deepening power crisis in India, affecting grid reliability for a population of 1.4 billion and signaling potential economic impacts from electricity shortages and industrial curtailments.
