India is expected to increase its reliance on coal-fired power generation to meet peak electricity demand this summer. This shift comes as liquefied natural gas (LNG) supplies tighten following shipping disruptions linked to the conflict involving the United States, Israel, and Iran. While the government typically encourages gas-fired generation during the high-demand months of April through June, current geopolitical tensions have significantly altered the energy landscape.
