Overview
- Delhi unveiled Mission 2030 on Thursday, committing roughly ₹17,000 crore over the next four years to strengthen and expand its transmission and distribution networks.
- The plan sets measurable service targets including cutting average power cuts per consumer from three to one and halving annual outage minutes from about 120 to 60.
- Officials ordered specific technical fixes such as undergrounding busy corridors, converting old High Voltage Distribution Systems to Low Voltage Distribution Systems, and deploying smart meters and a digital twin for real‑time grid monitoring.
- Projected peak demand under a baseline scenario is about 11,000 MW by 2030 and could rise to roughly 13,114 MW if electric vehicle charging and Metro expansion accelerate.
- Delhi reports ₹1,426 crore spent in 2025–26 with constituency-level disclosures and says a detailed three-year implementation plan and constituency rollouts are being finalized to speed work and improve reliability for residents.
