01 — GLOBAL REGISTRY

The world’s power system, country by country

Electricity generation and installed capacity for every country (Ember) and power plants worldwide (WRI). Countries with a unit-level registry, starting with India, link to their full records below.

02 — INDIA REGISTRY

India Unit-Level Generation Registry

A unit-level register of India’s power-generating assets, consolidated from CEA-derived and MNRE-derived records and from clearly identified supplementary sources. Every entry carries its provenance and verification status, tracing capacity from generation through transmission to distribution.

Data provenance & limitation

CEA-derived records are presented as the primary unit-level generating registry. MNRE-derived renewable records represent state-level aggregate capacity and are not treated as individual generating units. Supplementary named assets are separately identified and should not be interpreted as government-certified records.
03 — SOURCES

Three source classes, kept separate

Every India registry record is labelled by where it comes from, so nothing is mistaken for government-certified data.

PRIMARY / UNIT-LEVEL

CEA-derived

The primary unit-level generating registry, with individual plants and units derived from CEA data.

Source: CEA
RENEWABLE / STATE AGGREGATE

MNRE-derived

Renewable records represent state-level aggregate capacity and are not treated as individual generating units.

Source: MNRE
RESEARCH / SUPPLEMENTARY

Supplementary

Named assets identified separately for research. They should not be read as government-certified records.

Source: Supplementary research
SZVEX / VERIFIED DATA EVIDENCE

India Power Registry Verification Status

Registry capacity is independently reconciled against the stated CEA control baseline. The SZVEX registry is not force-fitted to the government total.

Evidence pipeline

01 SOURCE

Authoritative or documented source records enter the evidence pipeline.

02 NORMALIZE

Records are represented in a consistent registry structure.

03 VALIDATE

Structural, numeric and integrity controls are evaluated.

04 RECONCILE

Registry capacity is compared with the government control baseline.

05 PUBLISH

Verified values become visible through the SZVEX interface.

Questions about the data

How the registry treats its sources, how its verification is computed, and what it does and does not claim.

Why is the registry not forced to match the CEA total?
Registry capacity is the arithmetic sum of the individual unit records, and it is compared with the CEA control baseline rather than scaled to it. No balancing record or proportional adjustment is applied, so the difference (registry minus control, in MW) stays visible in the Verification panel instead of being absorbed.
How is the reconciliation against the CEA baseline calculated?
Calculated registry capacity is summed from the loaded records and compared with the government control value (control date 30-06-2026). The panel reports both absolute values in MW, the capacity difference as registry minus control, and the registry expressed against CEA = 100%. The same inputs are used for the bar, the ring and the matrix, so the figures cannot diverge between views.
What do the six integrity controls actually test?
Registry loaded confirms the dataset is available for runtime analysis. Capacity parse checks that capacity values are numerically interpretable. Duplicate integrity reads the evidence ledger's duplicate result. Critical fields checks that critical registry fields passed validation. Internal arithmetic recomputes capacity independently from the records, and Reconciliation consistency checks that registry and control values agree with each other.
What does PASS, VERIFYING or a blank value mean?
PASS means the control was evaluated against the loaded registry and ledger and met its condition. VERIFYING is shown while the runtime evaluation is still in progress, and a dash means a value has not been loaded yet. Nothing is pre-filled: a control only shows PASS after it has actually been evaluated at runtime.
Are MNRE records individual plants?
No. MNRE-derived renewable records represent state-level aggregate capacity, not individual generating units. They contribute to listed capacity but should not be read as plant counts or plant locations, which is why unit counts and MW totals are shown as separate measures.
Can supplementary records be treated as government-certified?
No. Supplementary named assets are identified separately from CEA-derived records, carry their own source label, and are counted in their own line (supplementary records). They should not be interpreted as government-certified data, and they are never merged into the CEA-derived count.
Where do the verification numbers come from?
Values in the evidence sections are loaded from the verified registry and the evidence ledger at runtime, not typed into the page. The technical footer lists the control authority, control date, evidence schema and generation timestamp that the numbers were produced under, so any figure can be traced to a source and a build.
Why does the global section show different India totals from the registry?
The global layer uses Ember country statistics and the WRI plant database. Scope, reference date and plant coverage differ from the CEA-derived registry, so SZVEX shows the figures side by side and never blends, rounds or adjusts one to match the other.
How current is the global plant data?
The WRI Global Power Plant Database dates from 2021 and is no longer maintained by WRI, so plant counts, capacities and locations may be out of date. Ember generation and capacity are yearly series, so they update on an annual cadence rather than continuously.
Which countries have a unit-level registry?
India is the first. Other countries appear with Ember country statistics and WRI plant records until a unit-level registry, built from a documented authoritative source and passed through the same evidence controls, is added for them.
