What is the News?

National Open Access Registry(NOAR) has successfully gone live from 1st May 2022.

What is the National Open Access Registry(NOAR)?

Launched by: Ministry of Power.

Purpose: It is a centralized online platform through which short-term open access to the interstate transmission system is being managed in India.

The platform is accessible to all stakeholders including open access participants, traders, power exchanges, and national/regional/state load despatch centres. 

The platform also has a payment gateway integrated for making payments related to interstate short-term open access transactions. 

Nodal Agency: ​​National Load Despatch Centre(NLDC) operated by Power System Operation Corporation Limited (POSOCO).

Benefits of the Platform: NOAR would be key to facilitate faster electricity markets and enable the integration of Renewable Energy (RE) resources into the grid. 

– It will also enable seamless market participation by the open-access consumer with easier and faster access to the short-term electricity market comprising about 10% of all India demand.
