KE officials said this development caused an unforeseen reduction up to 250 MW power from the National Grid to the K-Electric system, however efforts are being made to manage the power shortfall created due to this situation in light of the rising temperatures following rain and compounded by the insignificant power supply from 150 MW wind corridor of the National Grid due to low wind factor, they said.
"We remain in close coordination with the National Transmission and Dispatch Company (NTDC) officials to minimize disruption to the power supply situation and ensure the fastest possible resolution to this issue. The reduced supply from the NTDC albeit temporarily, may necessitate brief spells of load-management including in exempted areas." KE said. As soon as the NTDC's maintenance work is completed, power supply situation should be normalized across the city." the official concluded.
