Project Detail:
In 2000, and underpinned by the Electricity Act 2003, the Madhya Pradesh state government initiated a series of major power sector reforms. The long-term objectives of these reforms were to make the sector financially sustainable, remove subsidies, reduce power theft, achieve full electrification, augment generation and network capacity, increase private sector participation, and move towards full retail competition. To deliver against the objectives, the former Madhya Pradesh State Electricity Board (MPSEB) was split into five wholly state-owned government companies: a generating company, a transmission company, and three distribution companies. A separate publicly owned company was subsequently incorporated to handle bulk power sales and purchases.
