Arun Singh, a farmer from Meerut (Uttar Pradesh), used a secure, blockchain\u2011enabled platform to sell surplus solar\u2011generated electricity directly to Lakshmi, a garment shop owner in Delhi.&nbsp;<strong>Arun sold 6 units of solar power and earned Rs. 30.&nbsp;<\/strong>This historic transaction demonstrated the real\u2011world application of the India Energy Stack (IES), a Digital Public Infrastructure (DPI) designed to empower citizens as active \u2018energy agents\u2019 rather than passive recipients of electricity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The live P2P energy trading demonstration represents the most visible and tangible application of the India Energy Stack to date.<\/strong>&nbsp;The pilot enables prosumers\u2014households, businesses, and farmers who generate renewable energy\u2014to directly trade their surplus power with other consumers through trusted digital protocols, laying the foundation for a more participative and decentralized power market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The live demonstration took place in the presence of Dr. Ram Sewak Sharma, Chair, India Energy Stack; Shri Jitendra Srivastava, Chairman and Managing Director, REC Limited; Shri Ashish Kumar Goel, Chairman, UPPCL; Shri Alok Kumar, Director General, AIDA; Shri Reji Pillai, President, ISGF; Shri Shashank Misra, Joint Secretary, Ministry of Power; Shri Prince Dhawan, Executive Director, REC; and Smt. Swetha Ravi Kumar, Executive Director, FSR Global.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>DEMO PRESENTED TO HON\u2019BLE POWER MINISTER ON 18 FEB 2026<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Union Minister for Power, Shri Manohar Lal visited REC pavilion on 18 Feb 2026 where he was presented a live demonstration of a P2P decentralized energy transaction conducted under the India Energy Stack. He also met various Technology Service Providers (TSPs) at REC Pavillion where they presented different AI solutions related to Power Sector.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>DEMO PRESENTED TO HON\u2019BLE PRIME MINISTER ON 16 FEB 2026<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Earlier, on 16 February 2026, a demo of peer\u2011to\u2011peer energy trading was also presented to the Hon\u2019ble Prime Minister of India, Shri Narendra Modi, during his visit to the MeitY Pavilion.

FSR Global serves as the knowledge partner for the initiative, with support from the India Smart Grid Forum (ISGF), which has played a key role in advancing smart grid innovation and providing technical inputs for scaling digital energy solutions across India. Additionally, Networks for Humanity (NFH) is contributing to the development of a trust\u2011based digital transaction framework to ensure secure, verifiable, and scalable peer\u2011to\u2011peer energy networks.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>P2P demo presented to Hon\u2019ble Power Minister at REC pavilion REC Limited, a Maharatna Central Public Sector Enterprise under the Ministry of Power, today showcased the first live demonstration of India\u2019s Peer\u2011to\u2011Peer (P2P) energy trading pilot program under the India Energy Stack at the India AI Impact Summit 2026, held at Bharat Mandapam.
