A clean daily panel of India's electricity generation: programmed and actual generation, monitored capacity and outage status of every power station and generating unit in the Central Electricity Authority's daily generation report, deduplicated, with implausible values flagged rather than silently dropped. It is the data behind BharatEnergy-Bench and BharatEnergy-Chronos.

Coverage: 459 power stations and 608 generating units across 33 states/UTs and 5 regions (+ Bhutan imports), daily actual generation 2022-01-01 to 2026-01-02

root = snapshot_download("judicialmind/BharatEnergy-Data", repo_type="dataset")
gen = pd.read_parquet(f"{root}/data/generation_daily.parquet")
stations = gen[gen.level == "station"]
print(stations.groupby("fuel").actual_mu.sum())
