IGCEP 2027 Data Calls While IGCEP 2025-35 Awaits Notification

Energy Update reported on 10 September 2026 that ISMO had begun collecting project data for IGCEP 2027-37, with stakeholder returns due by 14 September, even though NEPRA had not yet formally notified IGCEP 2025-35 and had raised questions on 7 May 2026. The Grid Code’s annual planning duty does not pause for regulatory backlog. According to the same reporting, IGCEP 2025-35 projected installed capacity rising by around 49 per cent from 43,069 MW in 2024 to 64,035 MW by 2035, while hydro CODs slipped relative to the prior plan and distributed solar continued to unsettle load forecasts.
