Creating a history of sorts, the Punjab State Power Corporation Limited’s Shanan Power House broke the all-time monthly generation record, since its commissioning in 1932, by generating 83.168 million units (MUs) in the month of July this year.
Sharing the information, PSPCL chairman-cum-managing director A Venu Prasad on Sunday said that the previous generation record was 82.054 MUs in the month of July in 1997. The Shanan Power House, at Joginder Nagar, has also created history by achieving a monthly plant load factor of 101.62 percent for the first time, he added.
Prasad said that during the ongoing paddy season, when there was an acute shortage of power, Shanan Power House is generating four megawatt (MW) more power over and above its installed capacity of 110 MW.
PSPCL CMD appreciated the hard work, dedication, and devotion of officers or employees of Shanan Power house for the achievement.
