APERC regulation seeks to allow entry of private firms into power transmission business in Andhra Pradesh

The Andhra Pradesh Electricity Regulatory Commission (APERC) has recently issued a public notice inviting comments and objections on the APERC Transmission Licence Regulation, 2023, (AP-TLR), which would facilitate the entry of private companies into power transmission business in the State.

The draft regulation is going to be finalised after November 7, which has been set as the last date for various stakeholders to express their views.

Hitherto, the AP-Transco used to award the projects to private companies on a turnkey basis. It had been given the transmission and bulk supply licence in 1999-2000 under the A.P. Power Sector Reform Act of 1998.
