Uttar Haryana Bijli Vitran Nigam (UHBVN) and Dakshin Haryana Bijli Vitran Nigam (DHBVN), the two power distribution companies in Haryana, India, have approached the Haryana Electricity Regulatory Commission (HERC) to amend the rules regarding the recovery of the Fuel and Power Purchase Adjustment Surcharge (FPPAS). They have requested amendments to regulation 68 of the Multi-Year Tariff (MYT) Regulations, 2024 for the fiscal year 2025-26. Currently, additional costs from fuel and power procurement are recovered monthly from consumers. The companies propose to defer this monthly recovery and instead implement a uniform rate of 47 paise per unit across all consumer categories, including carrying costs to ensure systematic recovery. The HERC has opted for a public hearing to consider the petitions, emphasizing that any decision affecting consumers will be made after public consultation. A public notice has been issued, inviting comments and objections until May 1, with a hearing scheduled for May 14 in Panchkula. In another matter, the Haryana Power Purchase Centre (HPPC) is seeking approval for short-term power procurement but has been asked to provide realistic demand-supply data, which is crucial for assessing its proposal. The commission has highlighted the importance of accurate data for informed decision-making.
