MUMBAI: Mumbai needs to add electricity generation capacity that’s dedicated for its own consumption and reduce dependence on buying power from outside, the Central Electricity Authority team investigating the unprecedented outage across the city and nearby areas in October has recommended.
The CEA said in its report that inadequacy of the transmission network is likely to hamper the security of the Mumbai Metropolitan Region grid in the future.
