The Electricity Supply Code Review Panel (ESCRP) will, on Monday, take a call on the UP Power Corporation Ltd’s proposal for an increase in the cost of a new power connection in the state, officials aware of the development said.
UP Electricity Regulatory Commission (UPERC) chairman Arvind Kumar will chair the meeting as its ex-officio chairman with representatives from UPPCL and discoms also participating in it.
“The UPERC will issue a new Cost Data Book listing the price of each material like meter, cable, transformer revising the total cost that a person has to pay to get a new power connection,” a UPPCL official said.
