India's demand for coal-based power has risen by 7.3 percent this fiscal year to an all-time high, the government said in a statement recently.
Peak demand for power in India's hot, arid northern plains hit a record, even as the government said it continues to implement measures to meet high energy consumption.
The India Meteorological Department (IMD) has predicted above-normal temperatures for June in the northwest and central parts of the country, making it one of the longest heatwave spells.
Cumulative coal production stood at 207.48 million tonnes as of June 16, a growth of 9.27 percent from the same period last year, the government said in a release.
