Power is an essential commodity, which due to forced subsidies and increasing demands becomes a rare commodity, especially in the summer season. The mounting demand and the inadequate production, partly due to losses, from our power utilities has left the current power generation in India in a precarious condition. Losses incurred in the various stages of power supply due to power thefts, wastage and lack of user support, have exceeded 30% in recent times. Nuclear plants are seen as the only alternative, but there is a healthier choice. It is production and consumption of power in a smart way. Power can be smartly managed by monitoring who is using it, when and why. A major share of power is lost during distribution. So, making our power generation methods smarter is a necessity.
