For the first time, electricity consumption in Kerala has crossed 100 million units (mu) on a Sunday.
The Kerala State Electricity Board (KSEB) recorded a consumption of 103.34 mu on Sunday, April 7. The maximum demand during the evening hours also touched 5412 megawatt (MW) on Sunday which too is a record for the State’s power sector.
Usually, Sundays are lean days in terms of power consumption as offices, educational institutions, and many commercial enterprises are closed. Normally, electricity usage on Sundays tend to be five to seven mu lower than on other days.
