Reasons for Shortages / Gap
1.Low Wind Energy Generation : means no ‘reserve’ available
2. Unforeseen shut downs of thermal generating units at RTPS (Raichur)
MW
: 150
3.10 % Unforeseen shutdowns in CGS (Central Generating Station) share to the
state : 150 MW
Total Shortage of Load Expected : 300 MW
How BESCOM will close the GAP ?
1. Strict measures to stop illegal conversion of Single Phase to 3 Phase
by IP Set owners and excess consumption [Open Delta] : 210 MW
2.Vigilance Activities : 60 MW
3. Shifting of Peak Load : 30 MW ( From 6 PM to 9 PM to beyond 9 PM)
Open Delta System
1. Open Delta System is a scheme which avoids illegal use of power
supply to IP Sets. Thus there won’t be overloads or excess drawl
from the network.
2. Effective Implementation saves 210 MW
Open Delta Configuration
Vigilance Activities : 60 MW
1. Strengthening of BESCOM Vigilance network by providing 30
additional vehicles & staff .
2. Extra Vigilance during peak hours and at night : to have check
on illegal welding, lights, theft etc.,
3. Both Special Vigilance Team & BESCOM Officers will be on
strict vigil. Expected to do : 1500 inspections / Everyday.
Load Shifting : 30 MW
1. BESCOM would request consumers to shift the use of major
loads like Water pumps, Geysers etc., from peak to non- peak
hours ( after 10 PM)
2. BESCOMs brand ambassador will promote conservation, and load
shifting activities like above.
