Amid Punjab’s power crisis, PSPCL purchases 400 MW power at Rs 12.40 per unit from open market
Punjab is witnessing an all-time high power demand due to the ongoing paddy season amid a delayed monsoon, said Punjab State Power Corporation Limited (PSPCL) Chairman and Managing Director (CMD) A.Venu Prasad on Thursday.
Prasad said that power availability was low this season due to reduced water levels in dams resulting in a hydropower deficit of about 600 MW.
