Tier

No live feed and no published total for this region. A typical-shape profile is scaled to a capacity-based or literature anchor.

Modelled profile, scaled to annual (±40%)

Source provenance
official-lead · Official source identified, live path not producing

An authoritative source exists and the loader is wired or scaffolded, but the live path is not producing usable data — geoblocked, auth-gated, or parser pending. The emitted snapshot falls back to modelled or last-good values.

Source
GSLDC (Gujarat State Load Despatch Centre / GETCO) — probed 2026-05-09 from Indian-IP Bangalore DO droplet: sldc.gujarat.gov.in timed out (no response). Site not publicly reachable even from Indian IPs. T1 blocked. Loader uses live CEA daily generation × Ember 2024 rate 3% / (1−rate) (≈2.4 TWh/yr at current 77 TWh/yr solar generation); supersedes the older ~1.0 TWh/yr POSOCO anchor.

Calibration

  • Rate source documented in: docs/methodology/ (see links below)
  • Uniform across backfill years: n/a — no backfill
  • Generation source: CEA gen-re.cea.gov.in daily Excel, State-Wise sheet, Solar Energy (MU) column
  • Curtailment rate: ~3% solar — Ember India 2024 state-level estimate
  • Formula: annual_curtailed_TWh = annual_generation_TWh × 0.03 / (1 − 0.03)
  • Ember convention: rate expressed as fraction of potential (curtailed / (generated + curtailed))

Bad-conversions check

# Item Verdict Reason
1 DSM / deviation values used as curtailment no Ember curtailment rate applied to CEA generation; neither figure is a deviation/scheduling settlement
2 Capacity-at-risk MW used as curtailed energy MWh no CEA data is MU (= GWh, energy), not MW (capacity)
3 Instruction percentage without a generation denominator no Ember rate applied to actual generation TWh from CEA; denominator is explicit and official
4 Blank or dash treated as zero no Missing daily rows use withFallback to prior anchor; CSV rows with no report date are simply absent, not zeroed
5 Modelled fallback labelled as verified measurement partial sourceNote explicitly states: "Annual curtailed energy is derived from CEA official generation data (denominator) × Ember India 2024 state curtailment rate (modelled). Hourly shape is synthetic. Only the generation denominator is from a primary official source."

Discrepancy analysis

Pending: no backfill parquet yet for this region. Once HB.1 / HB.2 land the per-year totals for this region, this section will summarise the Δ vs TSO/Ember/IRENA and flag any year exceeding ±25%.
