Peak demand expected to be 14,500 MW during March and April
The Tamil Nadu Generation and Distribution Corporation (Tangedco) is planning to complete the annual overhaul of the 15 thermal power plants having a capacity of 4,320 mega watt (MW) by January 15.
The power utility, which had taken up the annual overhauling of the thermal plants, including the big plants in August last year, would be ready to make them operate at full capacity in summer to avoid any disruption in power supply.
A senior official of the Tangedco said the periodic maintenance had been done in August in 15 thermal plants. The overhauling work was progressing well and was likely to be completed before the Pongal festival.
