New Delhi: GNA Energy, India’s digital over-the-counter platform for electricity trading and power market intelligence, has appointed Ambrish Kumar Khare as Senior Executive Vice President. The appointment reinforces GNA Energy’s leadership bandwidth as the company accelerates its expansion across power markets, AI-driven energy intelligence, and its recently launched coal exchange initiative.
In this role, Khare will drive GNA Energy’s business development strategy, deepen institutional partnerships, and expand the company’s reach across India’s evolving short-term power market ecosystem.
Khare brings nearly two decades of specialised experience in India’s power sector, spanning energy trading, power procurement, market strategy, and energy management. He holds a Post Graduate Diploma in Power Management from the National Power Training Institute (NPTI), Faridabad.
He joins GNA Energy from Power Exchange India Limited (PXIL), New Delhi, where he served as Vice President and Head of Business Development. At PXIL, he was instrumental in expanding the exchange’s market share in the short-term power market, driving trading volume growth, and building strategic relationships with key participants across the national power ecosystem, including overseeing the achievement of record single-day trading volumes.
Prior to PXIL, he held senior roles at GMR Energy Limited, Shree Cement, and Tata Power, accumulating cross-sector expertise across power procurement, project planning, and business strategy.
Commenting on the appointment, Sanjeev Kumar, Managing Director, GNA Energy, said: “Ambrish brings exactly the kind of market depth and institutional relationships that a specialised platform like ours requires at this stage. As we scale GNAi, Vidyut AI, and Bharat Coal Exchange, having someone who understands the structure and participants of India’s power markets from the inside is a significant advantage. We are confident he will play a central role in expanding our platform’s reach and strengthening our position as a market infrastructure provider.”
GNA Energy operates at the intersection of energy trading and technology, running a digital OTC platform that connects electricity buyers and sellers while providing AI-powered intelligence tools for discoms, generators, and market participants. The company’s recent launches — Vidyut AI, a market analytics engine, and GNAi, a cloud-based power intelligence platform — reflect its positioning as a data and infrastructure layer for India’s power markets, rather than a conventional utility or trading intermediary.
