Power trading and exchanges — Business MegaBrands 2026–27

This category covers power exchanges that run day-ahead, real-time and term markets, along with licensed traders and intermediaries that buy and resell electricity between generators and distribution utilities. Exchanges give buyers and sellers an open, transparent market for power. Traders and intermediary agencies help states balance surpluses and shortfalls, and help place renewable power from projects tendered under central schemes.
