About REMC:

Renewable energy management centres(REMCs) are load forecasting Centres equipped with Artificial Intelligence based Renewable Energy(RE) forecasting tools.
They will mainly perform three functions a) forecasting of renewable energy from each plant b) scheduling of renewable energy to customers and c) tracking of generation from the RE plants.
The Government of India had approved the implementation of the REMCs as a Central Scheme and had mandated POWERGRID,a Maharatna CPSE under the Ministry of Power as an Implementing Agency.
The Centres are being managed by the Power System Operation Corporation of India Ltd.(POSOCO) at Regional and National level and at State level by State Load Despatch Centres(SLDCs).
