Bhubaneswar: Tata Power will offer clean and green energy products and solutions to the people of Odisha, a top official of the power utility said.
CEO & MD, Tata Power, Praveer Sinha said this while attending the India Smart Grid Forum (ISGF) organized Distribution Utility Meet here on Thursday.
“Odisha is the best model of Public-Private Partnership that is yielding results to the customers of the state. Odisha’s electricity distribution is going through a commendable transformation in a short span of time,” Sinha told reporters here.
Replying to a question to offer clean and green energy products and solutions to the people of Odisha, he said the Tata Power is planning to set-up EV charging stations to promote clean mobility across the state. In order to boost the use of renewable energy, TP Discoms will offer rooftop solar installation, solar pumps and home automation solutions, he said.
Stating that Odisha’s electricity distribution is going through a commendable transformation in a short span of time, Sinha said distribution companies here have been able to not only reduce the AT&C losses, but there has also been an improvement in the reliability and customer connects.
While, many of the legacy issues faced by the customers have been sorted, the official said nearly 20 lakh non-working meters have been replaced by Tata Power-led discoms. In Odisha, the four discoms—TPCODL, TPNODL, TPSODL, and TPWODL, are supplying power to over 9.5 million consumers.
This apart, Tata Power has implemented the deployment of Smart Grid Technologies across the discoms resulting in enhanced customer satisfaction across the segments. Discoms are focusing on the entire customer journey right from getting connection to metering to billing to complaint redressal to ease of bill payment. Discoms have integrated technology in their services to serve customers well, he said.
