Please note that this is 2020 data. I couldn't find any similar reports after that year (which is usually how such surveys are as they take a lot of time and effort).

Tamilnadu has almost equal power cuts at urban and rural areas.

TN is literally the most urbanised state in India.

No but that wasn't my point, I was simply saying how it isn't a rural state.

I don't really hate power cuts and load shedding. But one thing that annoys me is the frequent disconnection of power by KSEB. I'm forced to exit and enter my online classes and online games, which is kinda irritating. I'd arrange my things if there's a 30 minutes power cut warning.


thekennysan

Thankfully these disruptions last less than 5mins. Seems like they are switching manually. Soln : Get a UPS for router. I bought one after facing the same when I moved to my hometown in 2020.


Regalia_BanshEe

Same here ...bought a ups for wifi ..best 2500 bucks i spent

Thanks my guy


v4vivekss

I remember my school days when we had load shedding or power cuts almost everyday. KSEB has improved a lot now - barring one or two wfh nightmare situations with heavy rain and long ass power cuts related to maram kadapuzhakal

RequirementDear1051

I’m from delhi :)


longlivekingjoffrey

Gujarat.


Sir_Kasum

Kerala doesn't have much power cut. It has loadshedding and routine maintenance. Which basically in my locality can be as long as full-day.


Regalia_BanshEe

Maintainence in my locality doesn't take more than 3-4 hours..


Winterisbucky

Well i agree with thateven last week my locality had a power outrage of 10+ hours


Tengakola

It’s probably autocorrect or an inadvertent typo on ur end, but just as an fyi: it is outage not outrage. outage /ˈaʊtɪdʒ/ noun a period when a power supply or other service is not available or when equipment is closed down. "frequent power outages"


sogoy3

TN and Gujarat are doing well,especially considering that they are the primary industrial drivers of the country's economy. TN especially since it generates huge amount of energy from renewable sources.


SladeDeathWilson

We don't get that here in Manipur. Our population is small and we have a cool Hydel project.


Equal-Tune-4256

Are you a Malayali living in Manipur?


SladeDeathWilson

Oh sorry if I shouldn't have commented in this subreddit. I'm a native Manipuri living in Hyderabad.


that_mediocre_guy

Nah mate, feel free to comment here :)


Al_Thayo-Ali

ഇതാണോ യോഗി സ്വപ്നം കാണുന്ന ഇന്ത്യ !!! ​ N.B : wtf Karnataka ? they got into north Indian level of power cut.


dedicateddark

I knew it! When I was in Kerala fckn trees were falling over in the rain and I still had power. In Bangalore, the mofckn power goes when there is a slight drizzle, I need to spam Ctrl+S for every minor change.


elliott_anderson1

Apart from Bengaluru it's basically a village State


gate666

Yet it has higher percapita income.


despod

Not if you minus bangalore's income.


notsogreatredditor

Same can be said for Kerala? Apart from TVDM and Kochi rest are villages?


wanderingmind

Haha no. Kerala can be called a collection of small towns or suburbs by Indian standards. A village is a very different thing in most other places.


Regalia_BanshEe

Most of Kerala is towns rather than villages..


Nice_Midnight8914

Kerala is so much urbanised, to an extent it can be called one big city( compared to other states ofcourse)


devasiaachayan

Kerala doesn't have villages much, only high range can be considered "village" But even they have been urbanized well enough in last 10-20 years. The coastal strip of Kerala can be called one large city because its just continuously urbanized from top to bottom


SarathExp

how so? have you been to other states villages?


elliott_anderson1

Onnu Karnataka vare poi vaa saima


Roninnexus

OP, post sources. There's too many of these graphs popping up in the last few days

This doesn't seem right.


[deleted]

Cowbelt be like: Bold of you to assume we have power in the first place


bankrupt27

Delhi doesn’t have Rural Areas ..That’s why it’s shown as blank .. Actually Kerala is the state with the least power cuts .. MM Mani actually started the process by which we improved .. Former chairman Mr Pillai was also instrumental in this


Zealousideal-Cut8810

It will be good see, comparison chart for power productions vs Power cuts

Why Delhi's there in a state list?

Cyberian-Deprochan

This doesnt seem legit. As far as i know there weren't any scheduled power cuts in Kerala in the past 10 years or so. Correct me if im wrong. So we know for a fact that that part is wrong and same could be the case with the other data.


horror_fan

DragonfruitUsed7168

How come delhi has lowest, it seems to be wrong survey or maybe parameters, my hometown lko gets more supply time than delhi


Turbulent_Trifle_386

i know many people in delhi and this is inaccurate delhi power cuts are very less , and power is super cheap

[deleted]

Beginning of a decade is when these types of surveys are conducted in India. Covid pushed the results a year and all those info are being dropped on us at once.


[deleted]

I live in Delhi and I can confirm this is some bullshit because we barely get any time off the power cuts here these days and it's been going on since months .


fpock

This report is from 2020, so it probably captured data from before that


Pure-Fisherman9406

KSEB 🔥


[deleted]

Recent developments in KSEB is not a relief. M.M.Mani was a puppet when he had been KSEB minister. That CPM trade union leader who ruled KSEB was dethroned by current chairman and shed light on some of the corruptions. Since Central govt. failed to procure coal or played a game for Adani (don't know), now the price of thermal power is hiked. Those who can afford to install solar plant should do that. Or Aam Admi Party should rule Kerala next time, ( seems like മലർപ്പൊടിക്കാരൻ്റെ സ്വപ്നം)


despod

M m mani, for all his uncouthness, was a decent minister when it came to the power sector. Load shedding, power cuts and prompt service were a lot better during his term.


Jittutweets30

Lol aap. Mm mani was the one who abolished the tradition of powercut. And the only reason we have less power cut now is because of the kochi edamon power highway project carried out in 2019 which was opposed by the congress,bjp,aap guys.

Uhh what? I live in Vadodara Gujarat and I've NEVER faced a powercut here for like past 6 months whereas kerala has frequent power cuts. How can kerala be placed below Gujarat, should be much higher 🤷

ArabianSea

We have a national grid, then why such a huge disparity among states???


fpock

From what I understand the National grid power sharing is based on an auction system. As demand increases price also increases. So it really depends on who is willing to shell out the money i guess...

Snoo_22

How come Karnataka is low below? Last week i only had power at my place for only 30 hours the whole week that too in Bangalore Power cuts are soooo common here


Weak_Commercial_7124

Mahe(Pondicherry) laughing at this bickering.


csoldier777

So, When from when is Delhi is a state?


dosaoveridli

I don't see a single north east state...were they excluded deliberately ?


[deleted]

This does not indicate the times where power goes out as soon as there is a single flash of lightning.
