The Tariff Order (Suo-motu Order No 6 of 2024) by the Tamil Nadu Electricity Regulatory Commission (#TNERC) introduces a CPI-linked increase in tariffs, aiming to balance TANGEDCO’s financial needs with the impact on consumers. High Tension (HT) tariffs see an average energy charge rise of around 5% and a similar increase in demand charges. While essential for TANGEDCO’s financial stability, this could raise operational costs for industrial and commercial users, potentially prompting them to opt for #OpenAccess, which may affect #DISCOM's revenue. Low Tension (LT) domestic tariffs show varied increases across consumption slabs, from 4.35% to 5.69%, potentially resulting in higher household electricity bills. Special provisions for EV charging stations introduce time-of-day rates and smart metering, promoting efficient energy use and electric mobility, despite initial concerns over rate hikes. These adjustments aim to provide a predictable and transparent framework for tariff revisions, supporting TANGEDCO’s sustainability while considering consumer affordability. The true impact of these changes on both consumers and TANGEDCO will unfold in the coming months.
