Power supply to shopping malls in the national capital will be stopped after 10 pm, the Delhi Lieutenant Governor Najeeb Jung ordered while announcing a slew of measures to address the power crisis, as per a PTI report.
During a meeting to review the power situation in Delhi, Jung also directed that people be informed in advance about power cuts in their concerned areas.
“Power supply to malls will not be available after 10 pm High mast halogen lamps in the streets, which consume more power, will be switched off during night peak hours to conserve energy,” he said.
The meeting was attended by the Chief Secretary, Principal Secretary (Power), senior officers of Delhi Transco Limited and CEOs of all the power distribution companies.
Delhi registered its highest ever power consumption of 109.206 million units on May 7, leading to load shedding of around 400 MW, which affected power supply in several parts of the city.
