The nationwide lockdown, clamped to mitigate the spread of coronavirus, has brought the country to a grinding halt. Factories have fallen silent. But the deafening sound of turbines and generators continues to reverberate the five power generating stations of Sharavathy Valley Project.
The five stations, including Bhadra, have generated 666.988 million units (MU) and 579.089 MU power in March and April respectively.
Of the 24 generating units in Sharavathy valley, 21 are functioning while the remaining three are under temporary repairs. In these testing times, the power units are duly adhering to the guidelines laid by the government.
