The Kerala State Electricity Board (KSEB) has urged consumers to reduce electricity usage during evening hours to avoid power restrictions in the State.
According to the KSEB, supply from the central generating stations (CGS) has unexpectedly decreased by nearly 300 MW due to technical issues.
Given the reduction in supply to the State, the situation could warrant power restrictions, the KSEB said. To avert restrictions, consumers should reduce electricity usage between 6 p.m. and 11 p.m. when daily electricity consumption peaked, the utility said.
