NEW DELHI: State-owned power companiesincluding hydropower giant NHPC have snapped supplies to defaulting utilities - BSES Delhi and a distribution firm in Uttar Pradesh - and have started trading the electricity profitably in open market, top executives told NHPC chairman and managing director ABL Srivastava told ET that the company began selling through exchanges on Thursday to recover losses arising from defaults. He said BSES Delhi owed about Rs 460 crore to NHPC while another Rs 490 crore were due from Uttar Pradesh power distribution company.
The trend could mean further trouble for the distribution companies ahead of summer season as they have already accumulated huge financial losses but generating companies are happy as most of the power is fetching higher rates than being offered under bilateral agreements.
