Every unit saved is equal to two units generated, says SPDCL CMD
The power tariff proposed and okayed by the Andhra Pradesh Electricity Regulatory Commission (APERC) for the 2022-23 financial year is much lower compared to Karnataka, Kerala and Tamil Nadu, and there will be no hike in charges for the households consuming 0-30 units by following energy-saving measures, said Andhra Pradesh Southern Power Distribution Company Limited CMD H. Haranath Rao.
Addressing a press conference after speaking to staff and consumers on the occasion of Energy Conservation Day on Tuesday, Mr. Haranath Rao said the focus of the consumers should be on saving power and every unit saved was equal to two units generated, thus putting lesser pressure on natural resources.
