KSEB
Signalling that the power situation in the state is turning to worse, the Kerala State Electricity Board (KSEB) has recommended the State Electricity Regulatory Commission to regulate the supply of power to consumers during 2012-2013. According to KSEB, power usage by the domestic consumers should be restricted to 300 units a month at normal tariff.Supply at normal tariff to industries and bulk consumers during 2012-2013 should be confined to 85 per cent of the average energy consumed during the previous year. Any additional consumption - if the ceiling is broken, that is - should be charged at market rates, the KSEB has demanded.
