Andhra Pradesh’s energy demand falls considerably as the sizzling summer fizzles out

The Hindu  

Energy demand in the State fell to about 210.36 Million Units on Saturday, May 18, from the seasonal high of 259.20 MU recorded on May 4 as the blistering summer heat gave way to repeated spells of rain in recent weeks and the southwest monsoon is poised to hit south peninsular India by the month-end. A substantial chunk of the energy demand met on May 18 came from the AP-Genco ‘s thermal, hydel and solar power plants. As far as the coal availability on the given date is concerned, Dr. Narla Tatarao Thermal Power Station near Vijayawada had 53,487 Metric Tons that would last for 1.29 days. Rayalaseema Thermal Power Plant at Yerraguntla in Kadapa district had 30,309 MT, Sri Damodaram Sanjeevaiah Thermal Power Station at Nellore 25,003 MT, Hinduja Power Plant at Visakhapatnam 7,310 MT and Sembcorp Energy India Limited plant near Nellore had 2,37,606 MT.
