Revamping Odisha’s infrastructure to generate a reliable 24/7 power supply

Tata Power, one of India’s largest integrated power companies, is revolutionizing power distribution in Odisha through its joint ventures with the Government of Odisha. The company operates four Discoms, serving over 9 million customers across the state. Over the past three years, Tata Power has invested over Rs. 4200 crores in infrastructure expansion and building a cyclone-resilient network, providing reliable power supply to consumers. The company has added over 1 million new connections, providing electricity to underserved rural areas and supporting industrial expansion. As a result, Odisha now enjoys 24×7 power supply, with urban areas experiencing an average of 23.68 hours of power supply daily and rural areas receiving 21.98 hours. Tata Power’s initiatives have also reduced Aggregate Transmission and Distribution (AT&C) losses by 11% and improved supply reliability. The company’s focus on customer service and operational excellence has earned national recognition, with three of its Odisha Discoms achieving A+ ratings in the 12th Annual Integrated Rating and Ranking of Power Distribution Utilities.
