Monday’s grid collapse took place barely one-and-a-half months after the Central Electricity Regulatory Commission (CERC), in a scathing order, had directed states, especially from the northern grid, to strictly follow the grid code and discipline to avoid overdrawal of power.
Further, CERC, currently in the process of issuing another order against overdrawal of power, is exploring an option of opening radial lines to curb such instances. CERC chairman Pramod Deo said: “CERC is currently seized of the issue of overdrawal of power by states.”
