KOCHI: The incessant rain has come as a blessing in disguise for Kerala Electricity Board (KSEB) which is fighting a power crisis due to the coal shortage that has affected the thermal power units.
The heavy rainfall has led to a sharp drop in temperature and as the use of fans and air conditioners has come down. There was a decline of 10,000 million units in power consumption, which has helped the board to manage the situation without load shedding.
