Strategies to Reduce Power Theft for Improved Demand-Side Management

This initiative addresses the critical issue of power theft, which significantly raises electricity bills and damages electrical equipment, particularly during peak hours. Excessive reliance on fossil fuels like coal and diesel exacerbates the problem. Our approach focuses on capacity building among stakeholders and advocating for policy changes through comprehensive data collection and engagement strategies. By organizing joint meetings, public rallies, and awareness campaigns, we aim to foster a community that understands the importance of reducing theft for a sustainable energy future.
