THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: KSEB has requested to reduce power consumption from 7 pm to 11 pm to avoid the situation of electricity regulation in the state. KSEB has made the request in view of the lack of water in the reservoirs of the state's hydropower plants due to the lack of rains and the high electricity demand and power shortage experienced across the country.

There is a situation now where electricity has to be regulated due to the decrease in the total electricity availability of the state. In a statement, KSEB said that respectable consumers should be prepared to limit consumption as much as possible by not operating non-essential electrical appliances from 6 pm to 11 pm to avoid the restriction.
