Generally, consumers get to know their electricity consumption & Bill amount only at the end of the month on receipt of bill. Consumption patterns of a consumer can fluctuate widely without explicit knowledge of the consumer. Monthly Electricity Bill can be much more than the consumer's expectations due to higher consumption, consumption crossing over to the next higher tariff slab for residential consumers or penalty imposed on Commercial & Industrial consumers due to poor pf, billing Demand exceeding Contract demand, etc. KYEC is a unique, digital, value added service provided to our consumers through which they get information about their Electricity consumption on daily basis. The in-house developed mobile based software has been enriched based on consumer inputs. The residential consumers can set monthly budget towards bill & monitor/ control their consumption, get slab change alert, consumption alert during non-occupancy, etc. Commercial and Industrial consumers can also receive alert whenever their PF falls below a set value or maximum demand crosses a set value .This service is currently provided to around 23000 consumers who are covered under Automatic Meter Reading system. This "On the Go" service, helps consumer know, monitor & manage consumption, Demand, power factor & eventually earn incentives/reduce penalties. TATA Power Consumers saved Rs.120 million annually under this Value Added Service.

    KYEC is a pioneering & unique service in Indian Power Sector. This service is highly appreciated by our consumers. It has also helped in improving consumer's consciousness to reduce power consumption and thereby contribute towards energy conservation.
