Dhanbad: Coal town has opted to make alternate arrangements for power supply in a bid to tackle power cuts plaguing the city. Dhanbad Municipal Corporation in an attempt to have continuous power supply for its residents has got into an arrangement with Tenughat Thermal Power station and Dumka grid. The move aims at decreasing the city’s dependency on DVC for its power supply. Proper infrastructure to facilitate a steady power supply in almost all power stations of the Dhanbad town through the Kandra Grid is being developed.
Underground cable laying work to connect Kandra Grid through the Bhuli based Power Servo Amplifier is already complete and line charging is in progress to begin power supply from Kandra to Bhuli PSA through Raniband.
