Description
Description | The project involves the equity power share allocated to Himachal Pradesh State Electricity Board Limited (HPSEBL) from two hydro projects, Nathpa Jhakri and Rampur, managed by Satluj Jal Vidyut Nigam (SJVN). The equity power amounts to 2,000 million units annually, constituting 15% of the state's total power demand. The government decided to reallocate the equity power handling from HPSEBL to the Department of Energy, with trading managed by Himachal Pradesh Energy Management Centre. This shift may lead to increased power tariffs due to the need for HPSEBL to purchase power from the market at higher prices to cover the shortfall. |
