Leveraging tech, renewable energy for cheaper tariffs in future: K J George
Amid the backlash from the citizens over the increase in power tariff, the Energy Department is mulling formulating a new policy that aims to bring down the power supply charges.
Energy Minister K J George said that that policy will explore the use of modern technology and renewable energy to bring down the cost of production and supply.
“We have held discussions with the industries and all stakeholders to formulate a new policy. It will help us understand how we can put solar, wind, and hydel power to better use and eventually bring down power tariff,” he said.
