power outages and efforts are being made to increase coal supplies to the thermal power plants.<\/p>\n<p> According to the latest data, coal stock at 147 non-pithead plants with total generation capacity of 164 GW monitored by Central Electricity Authority (CEA) was 26 per cent of the normative level as on May 1.<\/p>\n<p> The dry fuel stock at these plants was 14,664 thousand tonnes against the normative level of 57,236 thousand tonnes on Sunday.<\/p>\n<p> Non-pithead power plants are located hundreds of kilometers away from coal mines and maintaining normative fuel stocks is essential to ensure uninterrupted power supply.<\/p>\n<p> As per national grid operation Power System Operation Corporation data (POSOCO), power consumption in the country grew 13.6 per cent year-on-year to 132.98 billion units (BU) in April, showing the impact of the early onset of summers and spurt in economic activities.<\/p>\n<p> Power consumption in April last year was at 117.08 BU, which was higher

to augment its dispatches further, especially to power plants in the coming months.<\/p>\n<p> Amid intensifying heat wave in different parts of the country, peak power supply touched record levels thrice last week.<\/p>\n<p> The peak power supply touched a record 201.65GW on Tuesday. This had surpassed last year\u2019s maximum demand met of 200.53 GW on July 7, 2021. Again, it was at a record level of 204.65GW on Thursday and touched an all-time high of 207.11GW on Friday.
