DISTRIBUTION AND RURAL ELECTRIFICATION

The Government of India has taken a number of initiatives to improve electric power distribution in general and rural electrification in particular. Under the APDRP ( full form), POWERGRID has been appointed as an Advisor-cum-Consultant (“A/C”), and in that role we are consulting on and monitoring the development of 178 electricity distribution schemes spread over 18 states, covering urban and semi-urban areas.
