Reasons for Shortages / Gap

How BESCOM will close the GAP ?
1 . Strict measures to stop illegal conversion of Single Phase to 3 Phase by IP Set owners and excess consumption [Open Delta] : 210 MW 2. Vigilance Activities : 60 MW 3. Shifting of Peak Load : 30 MW ( From 6 PM to 9 PM to beyond 9 PM)
Open Delta System
1. Open Delta System is a scheme which avoids illegal use of power supply to IP Sets. Thus there won’t be overloads or excess drawl from the network.
2. Effective Implementation saves 210 MW
Open Delta Configuration
Vigilance Activities : 60 MW
1. Strengthening of BESCOM Vigilance network by providing 30 additional vehicles & staff .
2. Extra Vigilance during peak hours and at night : to have check on illegal welding, lights, theft etc., 3. Both Special Vigilance Team & BESCOM Officers will be on strict vigil. Expected to do : 1500 inspections / Everyday.
Load Shifting : 30 MW
