Admitting that no power employee consumed metered electricity in the state, the UP Power Corporation Ltd (UPPCL) has urged the UP Electricity Regulatory Commission (UPERC) to grant it time till March 2023 to install energy meters at residences of all power department personnel and pensioners.
The corporation made this admission after UPERC asked it last week to submit a report on the status of installation of meters at the department’s employees’ premises, in keeping with the commission’s earlier directions.
The commission had also asked UPPCL to file a slab-wise tariff revision proposal while seeking clarifications on some issues in the annual revenue requirement (ARR) proposal it submitted to the commission a month ago.
