N-UNMS spurs innovation as we prepare for peak demand surge

EPR Magazine (Electrical & Power Review)

|

August 2025

To meet India's projected 388 GW power demand by FY32, the industry is leveraging N-UNMS, edge computing, and digital twins to enhance grid monitoring, simulate behaviour, and pinpoint faults with exceptional accuracy.

N-UNMS spurs innovation as we prepare for peak demand surge

Modernisation of the power grid is on the right track, and the implementation of Next-Generation Unified Network Management System (N-UNMS) is emerging as a game-changer. Centralised real-time grid monitoring is paving the way for rapid innovation in the testing and measurement (T&M) industry. This, in turn, ensures that the evolution will support utilities in maintaining grid stability amid rising power demand, renewable integration, and complex load dynamics. Reshmi Goppi shares her thoughts with EPR on the evolving sector, which aims to achieve 388 GW of peak demand by FY32.

With the implementation of N-UNMS set to enable centralised and real-time grid monitoring, how is the T&M industry innovating to support utilities in delivering predictive diagnostics and faster fault localisation across transmission and distribution networks?

The implementation of N-UNMS (Next-Generation Unified Network Management System), which enables centralised, real-time grid monitoring, has initiated rapid innovation in the testing and measurement industry.
