India Introduces Market Coupling to Reshape Electricity Trading

Imagine buying and selling electricity like you trade toys with your friends, but on a much bigger scale.

Instead of each exchange having its own auction, all the bids go into a central system.

This new system, called market coupling, helps make sure electricity goes to the people who need it most and at a fair price.

It’s like having a super-smart organizer for electricity.

This change could make things better for consumers and the economy, but might change how electricity exchanges make money, leading to some challenges.
