New Delhi: The Chairman of Minister Arvind Kejriwal said on Monday that the situation of power in the country was very important and the Delhi government tried with the central government to ensure that capital did not face an electrical emergency.
“Several major ministers have written to the central government about the position of critical forces throughout the country,” Kejriwal told reporters, adding that all stakeholders tried to improve the situation.
Earlier on that day, Delhi Movement Satyendar Jain said that even though the demand for peak power was much lower than in September, electricity was purchased at a price as high as Rs 17-20 per unit.
Usually, discounts buy electricity at Rs 5.5-6 per unit as part of a long-term setting.
“The Delhi government has majoring in his power agreement with NTPC (formerly known as National Thermal Power Corporation Limited), but the company has cut power production on various plants,” Jain said.
“There are no power plants that must have a coal stock of less than 15 days.
At present, most of the plants have coal only 2-3 days of operation.
All NTPC factories work at a capacity of 50-55%.
The central government must explain why even so, the generator Other electricity still faces coal crunch throughout the region.
“Jain said that in accordance with the power purchase agreement, NTPC must provide a complete power supply of 85% of the time every year and the remaining 15% of the time, he can impose supply to 55%.
“But this can’t be done for all plants at the same time,” Jain explained.
He said that NTPC usually provided around 4,000 MW of electricity to Delhi, but at that time it could not supply even half of the contracted amount.
NTPC does not respond when requested commented by TOI.
“Electricity requests that apply in low Delhi.
At a time, the power request is more than 7,300 MW, but this has dropped to 4,562 MW at this time.
Even when demand is so low, we finally buy electricity at prices from Rs 17 to Rs 20,” Jain said.
Jain said the power crisis throughout the country was a matter of worries.
Claim center No crisis, Jain argues, then why did Minister Pradesh Minister Pradesh wrote to the central government about cutting power? He also reasoned that only when the central government accepted the facts about coal deficiency as an urgent problem can everyone start working on the solution.
