Mysuru’s first electric vehicle (EV) charging station was launched on the premises of the Chamundeshwari Electricity Supply Corporation’s (CESC) Corporate Office at Vijayanagar, near Hinkal, on Tuesday.
Charging infrastructure for zero-emission vehicles in the city is all set for an improvement as two more stations will come up shortly at Kuvempunagar and Rajendranagar. This comes at a time when the number of EVs are on the rise in Mysuru with the entry of new variants to market in both two-wheeler and four-wheeler categories.
KERC gives nod for hike in power tariff
January 16, 2021
In a ‘shocking’ news for power consumers, the Karnataka Electricity Regulatory Commission (KERC), has given its nod to Electricity Supply Companies (ESComs) for hiking power tariff. Citing rising fuel prices, the five ESComs (head quartered at Mysuru-CESC, Bengaluru-BESCom, Mangaluru-MESCom, Hubballi-HESCom and Kalaburagi-GESCom) of the State, in November last year, had sought the Electricity Regulatory Commission for hiking power tariff in order to make up for FAC (Fuel Adjustment Cess). Now, the KERC has given its approval for the hike, according to which CESC, MESCom and GESCom can hike power tariff by 5 paisa a unit, HESCom by 4 paisa a unit and BESCom by 8 paisa a unit.
