Commenting on the power surplus in the country Dr Sanjiv Kawishwar, Sr. Vice President, ReGen Powertech Pvt Ltd believes that the power scenario is favourable and the country is enjoying the continuous power supply than previous year. He says, “There may be a power surplus in some particular areas and people having access to electricity may find a better situation with respect to continuous power supply compared to earlier years and therefore it is expected that power supply as well as power accessibility will improve in the current financial year. We expect that the schemes like UDAY (Ujjwal Discom Assurance Yojana) will enhance financial condition of discoms in power deficit areas, so that they may buy surplus power. This is the first time that the country has declared a year of no power shortage though many regions had power surplus for shorter period.”
