Nearly 4 GW of wind-solar energy has been curtailed in Rajasthan since March 2025 due to delays in transmission projects and lower power demand resulting from above-normal rainfall in north India. In March 2025, several developers in Rajasthan received notices from the regional load dispatch centres about time-block-wise curtailment of renewable energy. The curtailment, which started at 8.5% in March, rose to 51.5% by August. Solar and wind projects were granted a ‘must-run’ status in 2021. Any curtailments can only be made for reasons of grid safety and security, and must be communicated in writing to the generators.
