India Energy Stack: A Live P2P Power Trade on Stage

At the India AI Impact Summit 2026, in front of DISCOM leaders, regulators and the All-India DISCOMs Association, a farmer in Uttar Pradesh sold surplus solar power to a shop in Delhi. Live. On stage. Powered by the India Energy Stack.

What was demonstrated

Shri Prince Dhawan, Executive Director at REC Limited and the lead driving the India Energy Stack, presented the core architecture and demonstrated this peer-to-peer (P2P) trade in real time.

The transaction crossed state boundaries, settled between two parties with no commercial relationship, and did so on public digital infrastructure rather than a bilateral contract negotiated in advance.

Why it is more than a proof of concept

This was the defining moment India's demand-side energy market transitioned from a visionary policy ambition into an active, living reality.

A P2P trade executing on shared rails implies the pieces underneath are working: identity for energy assets, metering data that both parties trust, a settlement layer, and a consent framework governing who sees what. Those are the hard parts, and they are what make the demo meaningful rather than theatrical.

What it means for storage and flexibility

Once energy can be traded between participants at fine granularity, the value of being able to shift energy in time rises sharply. A prosumer with storage is no longer limited to consuming their own generation or exporting at a fixed rate — they can hold and sell into the hour when the market values it most.

At Ingro Energy we are deeply aligned with this digital transformation. As the ecosystem scales, we are excited to share our insights on what this foundational shift means for data intelligence, demand flexibility and the future of India's power sector.
