New Delhi, November 24, 2025: The Ministry of Power on Monday held a key meeting of the India Energy Stack (IES) Taskforce to review progress on developing a Digital Public Infrastructure (DPI) for the power sector. The initiative aims to build a unified, secure, and interoperable digital backbone for the entire energy value chain.

The project is being executed with REC Limited as the Nodal Agency and FSR Global as the Knowledge Partner. Two core documents — the IES Strategy Document (v0.1) and the IES Architecture Document (v0.1) — were presented for expert review and feedback.

Senior specialists from the power, technology, and regulatory domains participated, including Taskforce Chairman Dr. Ram Sewak Sharma, Chief Architect Pramod Verma, Vice Chair Pradeep Kumar Pujari, Ghanshyam Prasad, Alok Kumar, REC Limited CMD Jitendra Srivastava, S. K. Soonee, Vikram Gandotra, Swetha Ravi Kumar, Sujith Nair, Prince Dhawan, Raveesh Gupta, Debjani Ghosh, and Shashank Mishra.

REC CMD Jitendra Srivastava said the discussions mark “a pivotal milestone in building a unified, open, and future-ready digital foundation for India’s energy sector.” He noted that the inputs will help refine the framework before moving to pilot implementation.

The India Energy Stack aims to connect all stakeholders and energy assets through interoperable standards, federated registries, and open digital protocols, enabling secure real-time data exchange. Members observed that the IES could transform the power sector much like Aadhaar and UPI reshaped identity and payments.

The feedback will guide document finalisation and pilot planning. Monthly Taskforce meetings will now ensure steady progress. The project is targeted for completion by July 2026.
