Tepid response to open access power plan
While the Delhi government has been talking of making the power sector competitive by permitting open access for domestic consumers, Delhi Electricity Regulatory Commission (DERC), the power regulator, is perplexed at the poor response from stake holders for the public hearing on open access scheduled for June 27. Much below expectations, the Commission has received only about 20 to 25 comments of participants till June 17, the last date of submitting applications.
