APDiscoms to go ahead with SECI deal
The New Indian Express Hyderabad|December 09, 2024
EVEN as the State government is yet to take a decision on the deal with SECI (Solar Energy Corporation of India), a public sector company, power distribution companies in Andhra Pradesh (APDISCOMs) are set to go ahead with the agreement.
S GURU SRIKANTH @Vijayawada

While explaining the energy status in the State, APDISCOMs in its Aggregate Revenue Requirement (ARR) and Tariff Proposal for the Retail Supply Business for financial year 2025-26 to Andhra Pradesh Electricity Regulatory Commission (APERC) mentioned about the power supply from SECI.

Uncertainty prevails over the deal considering the controversy surrounding the agreement that was signed by the previous YSRCP dispensation, led by YS Jagan Mohan Reddy. There has been an increasing demand by Opposition parties and people's organisations to scrap the deal, citing severe burden on the people of the State as prices of solar energy are expected to drop over the coming years.
