Grid Se Ghar Tak is a training series by CEEP, in collaboration with RERC, enabling Rajasthan's electricity consumers with knowledge of governance, rights, and policy participation. The third session focused on billing and metering of electricity in Rajasthan, covering bill structure, metering systems, consumer-centric regulations, and net metering for rooftop solar systems.
The series is a consumer-centric initiative supported by the Rajasthan Electricity Regulatory Commission (RERC) and facilitated by the Centre for Energy, Environment & People (CEEP). It aims to empower individuals and social organisations in Rajasthan to actively participate in shaping the legal, policy, and regulatory landscape for the power sector.
Third in the series, this workshop aimed to explain the nuances of billing and metering of electricity in Rajasthan to the individuals and CSOs of the state. This included discussions on the structure of the electricity bill and its components, metering systems in Rajasthan and key provisions and regulations for billing and metering from a consumer-centric perspective.
The training workshop was a half-day event, conducted in a hybrid manner. While some attendees joined us in person at RERC headquarters, others connected virtually on Zoom. Overall, a total of 52 participants gained insights into the subject of billing and metering.
