The Dakshin Haryana Bijli Vitran Nigam (DHBVN) has issued notices to 25 developers in the city to upgrade their electricity infrastructure to 33 KV, failing which the utility will recommend cancellation of their project licenses. According to the power utility, 11 KV partial load facilities were allowed as a time gap arrangement on the condition that developers will set up infrastructure for 33 KV, according to the sanctioned load.
A DHBVN official informed that the utility has adequate electricity for supply and substations have been constructed to ensure quality power supply to consumers. But the same has been lacking in residential projects because builders haven’t developed the necessary infrastructure yet. PC Meena, managing director, DHBVN, said the Nigam wants to ensure that quality and reliable electricity is supplied to consumers in the city and builders must upgrade their internal electricity infrastructure in order to do so. “We have adequate electricity for supply and the distribution infrastructure has been put in place,” he said.
