Assets mentioned that as of the day gone by afternoon the ability load within the state touched a most of seven,353 MW as on reasonable as of now 6,362 MW however within the coming days it’s going to build up upto 15,000 MW thus there shall be a scarcity of 700 to two,000 MW right through top time.
“Already the Punjab State Energy Company Restricted (PSPCL) is enforcing energy cuts starting from 5 to 6 hours in villages around the state and one to 2 hours in towns. Beginning Might the ability scenario
within the state shall be going in opposition to the bleak aspect and in June and July the state will have an acute scarcity of energy thus main energy cuts are anticipated as that shall be additionally the paddy sowing season so energy shall be wanted within the agriculture sector additionally,’’ mentioned a senior reputable of PSPCL and added that the location
