Jammu & Kashmir’s peak electricity demand stands at about 2,500MW in summer and 3,000MW in winter. With both Baglihar units largely unavailable for most of the past week, Jammu & Kashmir faced a shortfall of nearly 900MW.<span class="id-r-component br" data-pos="11"/>Built on the Chenab river, Baglihar stages I and II are among Jammu & Kashmir’s key power sources. Following the disruption, the power department is exploring alternative arrangements to bridge the supply gap.<span class="id-r-component br" data-pos="13"/>The crisis comes amid criticism of the Omar Abdullah-led govt over rising electricity tariffs. From Sept 1, power consumers in Jammu & Kashmir will face a 6.83% tariff hike.</div> </div> <p><br /> <br /><a
