Thermal PLFs to remain healthy amid power demand-supply mismatch: Report

India Ratings and Research (Ind-Ra) has maintained a neutral outlook for the power sector for FY25, predicting that thermal plant load factors (PLFs) will remain healthy due to a demand-supply mismatch. The agency believes that the overall plant load factor of thermal power plants will improve to reach closer to 70% in FY25. This is due to higher power demand, domestic coal production ramp-up, slower capacity additions, and dependence on coal-based generation until sufficient storage capacity is built up for the energy transition towards renewables.
