Patiala: Outrageous and "dark" days
for power crisis in Punjab. It is facing this because its
thermal plants have run out of coal reserves. “We are left with only one-day
coal stock. Punjab is suffering financial
losses by obtaining power from external sources. We are also experiencing
voltage fluctuations. PSPCL Chairman-cum-Managing Director A. Venue Prasad said, "The
electricity discount can be achieved virtually internal factors of the height”.
The power crisis in Punjab is inevitable as the
farmers' union protested against the Centre's agricultural reforms and Then
resorted to 'stop rail', in protest against the halt of goods trains. Although
the farmers shifted their protest to the rail track, the trains were halted for
two days as the protesters still held private power plants in Mansa and
Rajpura, passes were blocking rail traffic. Farmers unions demonstrated on 21st
October. Goods train services resumed in the state, announcing an exemption
from their week-old 'Stop the Rail' movement on Centre's new agricultural laws.
However,
the railways later decided to postpone the operation of goods trains, stating that
the farmers are still blocked. Punjab Minister Sukhjinder Singh
Randhawa said that the Center is
targeting Punjab by suspending goods trains in
the state because the farmers and government have planted their opposed
anti-farmer laws. Let the Indian authorities go
and take a look at whether the farmers are sitting on the railway tracks
despite the fact.
Except
for a track at Jandiala Guru, where the train will reach Amritsar
via Tarn Taran, other trays can be diverted.
On the Jalandhar-Pathankot section, in Bathinda and Ferozepur, the tracks have
been liberated. "Punjab
State Power Corporation Limited Chairman-cum-Managing Director A. Venu Prasad
said, one in 5 thermal plants is virtually 'serious'," Mr. Prasad said while speaking to
reporters," for the rest of the month. For, there is no movement in coal
Racks in the nation and Nabha Thermal in Rajpura and Talwandi Sabar Power
Limited in Mansa, has coal stock is eliminated".
“In
three one-of-a-kind energy plants, the on-hand inventories will solely last 2-3
days, and for emergency features or quintessential incidents, we have saved it.
Due to the situation, we
are buying 1,500 MW to 1,700 MW for power exchange, but it is unpredictable,
sometimes we receive, sometimes we do not, and at what rate we are going to get,
we do not know.
Mr.Prasad
said, 'Whenever we buy electricity from the exchange, we get about Rs. 5-10
crores have to be paid in advance. 'He said that he immediately asked the State
Finance Department to release Rs. 200 crores. It has been requested, but they
are also facing financial constraints, so,
to date, the scenario has assumed a serious ratio.
Therefore,
if the current uncertainty persists, electricity boards and electricity
consumers may face difficulties. "For the agricultural zone and industry,
Mr. Prasad said, due to the reality the cuts have been no longer being made, on
the distinct hand, for family categories, minor cuts have been made. And in the
coming days, it will depend on whether how the situation is unfolding.
"Also,
during the monsoon this year, there has not been enough rainfall and the reservoir water level has gone down. Due to which the hydropower generation has
come down ... and if the coal crisis continues, so there are some problems one
has to face,” he said.
However,
Prasad said, especially the weather conditions at night.
Power has decreased due to a change in weather conditions and a fall in
temperatures.
Daytime demand is around 6,000 to 7,000 MW.
Electricity demand in Punjab
was once round 5,500 MW on Monday, of which over 1,650 MW was once generated
from inside sources. GVK
Goindwal Sahib has an installed capacity of 540 million MW (270
* 2) while TSPL Banawali
has an installed capacity of 1,980 MW (660 * 3 units) and Nabha Power Plant (NPL), Rajpura,
has 1,400 MW mounted potential (700*2) units?
The
two state-run power plants had already suspended their operations despite a few
days of coal stock in reserve. Ropar power plant (840 MW) at full capacity (LU)
200 million units per day, while the Lehra Mohabbat plant (920 MW) produces 220
LU per day at full capacity.
