PATIALA: The Punjab power crisis continued on Thursday amid a deficiency of coal which led to the closing of two units of Talwandi Sabo Power Limited (TSPL) and one unit of Lehra Mohabbat.
Power cutting is imposed on various categories of consumers but less than the last four days.
Eight out of 10 units that run must operate by reducing the burden so that they produce around 3,000 MW on Thursday afternoon.
The generation of hydropower is around 440MW.
Coal stock with TSPL is about two days, while NPL and GVK power plants have 1.5-day coal stock.
TSPL officials claim that around one lakh MT coal is on its way.
NPL officials said they had 42,000 mt coal available with them so far.
GVK officials revealed that around 10,000 MT coal was available at a factory while 20,000 MT coal was on its way.
The source revealed that on Wednesday the power plant in Punjab received 10 coal rakes while 49 Garu was transit.
The source also said the strength of Tata Mundra could be available on Friday as one of the five 800MW units in Mundra began on Wednesday to turn on Gujarat and Punjab.
The first unit gave 600mW to Gujarat and 160MW to Punjab.
The second unit will appear on Thursday night and the third on Saturday morning.
The Ranjit Sagar Dam project has started its operation and produces around 120mW.
On Wednesday, the limited power supply in the state was 1952 lakh units and his request was 2005 the lakh unit.
PSPCL CMD A Venu Prasad said PSPCL had fulfilled a maximum power demand of 9,363mW in the state on Wednesday while PSPCL had to buy around 1,500 MW of power from the power exchange at the RS.11.29 level per unit on Thursday.
He said only 10 coal coal salaries were received against the requirements of 22 rakes.
“There has been a change in weather when the temperature starts the trend decreases.
Agricultural demand is also starting to recede and consequently, electricity demand has also begun to decline and will greatly reduce in the next two to three days.
The position of the power supply has shown an increase marked as an adequate agricultural supply Given and cutting quantum power is very nominal yesterday.
The supply position tends to increase further because there is no power outage that is likely to be imposed in the coming days, “CMD said.
Director of the PSPCL generation, Paramjeet Singh said, “We got 100 MW Power from Mundra on Thursday because only one unit of work.
From tomorrow we might get 475 MW.” PSERC must pay attention to all Indian Power Engineer Federations (AKPA) in a letter to Punjab Electric State Regulatory Commission (PSERC) has urged him to intervene because there is a weight violation of the Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) between Tata Power and PSPCL.
They said the PSPCL was the procurement of electricity at a higher level of the PPA level and there was no basis for bypassing PSERC.
They urge that PSPCL must take legal opinions about things like the PPA, because it has been decided by the Supreme Court.
Aicef said the move could reduce pressure on domestic coal and helped reduce prices on the electrical exchange.
“For 475 MW, it costs RS 3 Crore every day to PSPCL and in the end for consumers.
The cost of the power plant itself is around Rs 4 per unit and coal fuel power plants operate at low capacity due to domestic coal deficiencies, producing power outages and restrictions Consumers.
Maharashtra, Rajasthan and Haryana are among the five Mundra project consumers who stop operations because import coal prices touch $ 150 per ton, “ACKEF said.
