- Tier
estimated· T3-modelledNo 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%)
- Uncertainty
- ±40% of peak GW
Published envelope for this tier. See the uncertainty model.
- Source provenance
official-lead· Official source identified, live path not producingAn 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
- RRVPNL SLDC (Rajasthan State Load Despatch Centre) — probed 2026-05-09 from Indian-IP Bangalore DO droplet: sldc.rajasthan.gov.in returns HTTP 403 on all paths. Login-gated portal, no public data surface. T1 blocked: no unauthenticated endpoint. Loader uses live CEA daily generation × Ember 2024 rate 6% / (1−rate) (≈6.3 TWh/yr at current 98 TWh/yr generation); supersedes the older ~3.5 TWh/yr Ember-anchor estimate.
Tier, provenance, and source are read at build time from src/lib/regions.ts — the same table the globe draws from. The validation record below is generated separately and gated against it by npm run ci:docs-drift.

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%.
Known limitations
- Curtailment rate (6%) is Ember's national/regional estimate applied uniformly to Rajasthan; actual rate varies by season (summer peak curtailment) and grid conditions
- Hourly shape remains synthetic (typical solar profile centred on 06:30 UTC)
- The RRVPNL SLDC source (
sldc.rajasthan.gov.in) remains geoblocked from non-Indian IPs; T1a promotion is still gated on an Indian residential IP relay
