TATA Power Company (TPC) has assured an outage-free summer this year, stating that its infrastructure was prepared to meet the city’s projected peak demand of 4,000 megawatt, up by 149 megawatt. The power firm handles 70 per cent of Mumbai’s electricity demand through its transmission network—TPC-T.

Transmission has been a major concern ever since the city faced two major outages in October 2020 and February 2022. Along with the state-owned transmission company, TPC-T was put in the dock. Inquiries, both by the state and central governments, were conducted to ensure there are no further blackouts in the city where consumers pay more for reliability.
