India’s power trading sector is back in focus after the Supreme Court reportedly issued a notice to Central Electricity Regulatory Commission (CERC) regarding the ongoing Market Coupling case. The development has drawn significant attention toward Indian Energy Exchange (IEX), which remains a dominant player in the country’s electricity trading ecosystem. Market coupling refers to a proposed mechanism where electricity prices across multiple power exchanges are determined through a common clearing system. Analysts believe this could significantly alter pricing structures, competition levels and market share dynamics within the power trading industry.
