NE MONSOON RAIN BRINGS DOWN TN POWER DEMAND
The New Indian Express Tiruchy
|October 23, 2025
WITH the northeast monsoon bringing heavy rainfall, the state’s power demand has dropped over the past few days.
According to Tamil Nadu Power Distribution Corporation Limited (TNP-DCL) data, the state’s power demand stood at around 11,651MW on Wednesday, much lower than the usual average of 15,000MW. This has led to the corporation lowering thermal power generation by nearly 50%.
A senior official from TNP-DCL said that the drop in demand is mainly due to the reduced use of air conditioners and agricultural motors.
“In Chennai city, the electricity demand, which was 3,694MW on October 13, came down to 2,659MW by Tuesday, a fall of 1,035MW in a week,” the official told TNIE.
