Andhra Pradesh discovers there is no cheaper power [1]

New Delhi States that have rejected developers’ proposals for hike in electricity tariff to reflect the actual increase in imported fuel cost for existing projects are unlikely to get cheaper power elsewhere. This is the inference one makes from the offers received by an Andhra Pradesh utility in response to its tender for 2,000 mw power supply.

Central Power Distribution Company of Andhra Pradesh and Andhra state utility, had recently floated tender for procurement of 2,000 mw power for three years. In response to the tender, bidders have quoted Rs.4.29-6.24 a unit price for supplying power.
