Power Ministry Unveils Draft National Electricity Data Sharing Framework
The power ministry has unveiled a draft National Electricity Data Sharing Framework to establish a common architecture for sharing electricity sector data. It proposes standardized datasets, privacy safeguards, and consent-based access to support planning, grid operations, regulation, and research. The framework applies to data from various electricity sector entities and aims to enable secure, transparent, and non-discriminatory data sharing. Adoption is voluntary, with a National Electricity Data Centre and Portal proposed to facilitate the ecosystem. Stakeholders can submit feedback until July 21.
