The electricity situation in Uttarakhand remained largely balanced during October 2025. On average, the supply of electricity was ensured to match the demand in the state. However, a slight power shortage was recorded for a few days due to a decrease in generation from hydropower projects.
According to the state's Daily Power System Energy report, a total of 57.29 crore units of electricity were generated from state sources in Uttarakhand, while 36.45 crore units were supplied from central government projects between October 1 and 25.
About 93.75 crore units of electricity were available in the state, with the total electricity demand recorded at 94.62 crore units, leading to a shortfall of approximately 87 lakh units over the entire month.
The average daily electricity demand was 1.54 crore units, and the supply was 1.55 crore units. The state maintained a balanced supply overall.
According to the report, on days with a power shortage, Uttarakhand received 5.23 crore units of electricity through the banking system and 17.05 crore units from the power exchange. This ensured that consumers did not face a power crisis.
