\"Thanks<\/div>\n
With its strategic use of renewable energy<\/a> (RE) and non-renewable energy resources, Karnataka has managed to meet its growing energy demand<\/a> during the peak summer months, said state Energy Minister K J George on Monday. Incidentally, the state’s power consumption between February and May this year scaled new heights, the minister said at a press conference. “The peak demand<\/a> stood at 17,220 MW on February 12. The highest average daily consumption in the state stood at 332 million units on April 5, showcasing the state’s commitment to a sustainable energy future<\/a>,” he added. <\/p>\n

According to him, the state’s success in managing the excess demand for power, owing to unprecedented heat waves, was possible through a combination of strategies such as increased generation capacity, renewable energy integration, efficient grid management<\/a>, and demand-side management<\/a> initiatives. <\/p>\n

“It’s a testament to the state’s proactive approach to energy planning and infrastructure development<\/a>.” He also said to meet the energy demand, the government of Karnataka negotiated an exchange of surplus power with other states during specific hours. <\/p>\n

“For instance, Karnataka swapped power with Uttar Pradesh during the pre-solar and post-solar hours to an extent of 300MW to 600MW from October 2023 to May. This power is to be returned to Uttar Pradesh from June 16 to September 30. A similar arrangement was made with Punjab for a quantum of 500MW of round the clock (RTC) power from November 2023. The same will be returned from June 16 to September 30,” added George.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
