Welcome to The Kuppam Rural Electric Co-Operative Society Limited (The KRECS Ltd., Kuppam), generally known and called as RESCO, Kuppam, web
land.
The Kuppam Rural Electric Co-Operative Society Ltd., Kuppam was established
during 1981 with the aim of 100 % rural electrification of backward Kuppam
Constituency by Sri B. R. Doraswamy Naidu, the then M.L.A., of Kuppam with
the encouragement of Sri. N. Amaranatha Reddy, the then Cooperative
Minister.
Our firm engaged in the supply of Electricity to its members which
registered under the A.P. Co-operative Societies Act 1964 vide C.R. No:
505 The By laws were registered with the Divisional Cooperative Officer,
Madanapalli on 21-07-1981 with the name “ THE KUPPAM RURAL ELECTRIC
COOPERATIVE SOCIETY Limited, KUPPAM”. The A.P. Government issued license
vide G.O. Rt.No:51 Dt:10-05-1982.
OBJECTIVES
The main objective of the Society is to electrify the rural areas of
Kuppam Constituency and to give supply easily to its members with lesser
formalities as and when required with the contribution of shramadhan of
the members. The Society have fulfilled its objective of 100 % rural
electrification within 3 years of its starting than the stipulated time of
5 years.
HVDS: The Society started High Voltage Distribution System
to serve its Agricultural consumers in a better way. In this
system, the high voltage 11 KV line will be laid nearer to the service
connection. For 2 nos., connections, one 15 K.V. transformer will be
erected. With this system, guaranteed voltage will be assured to the
consumers. Voltage fluctuations will be avoided. Theft of power will be
arrested. Line losses will be minimized.
The KRECS achieve the required benefits like (1) Improve Voltages in the
problematic areas by installing 16/15 KVA Three Phase Distribution
Transformers, (2) to reduce the L.T Line losses (3) To arrest the
Pilferage of energy (4) New high accuracy meters will be erected in
respect of domestic consumers thereby improving the Society’s revenues. To
improve the revenue in the Society besides the Social benefits in the area
like improve the economic status of the Poor, better living conditions and
health convenient life style using electrical gadgets and finally
achieving green revolution.
The Government of
India, Ministry of power have sanctioned a project of Accelerated Power
Development and Reforms Project (APDRP) for the HVDS.
Sri Aravind Jadhav, Joint Director, MOP, GOI during his visit to RESCO,
Kuppam appreciated the H.V Distribution works taken up by RESCO in remote
areas with low voltage complaints and suggested to go ahead using RESCO's
resources until the 1st tranche of sanctioned amount is released by the
Ministry Of Power, GOI and get it reimbursed subsequently, as is being
done in DISCOMS.
Hence, estimates are being sanctioned for such identified severe problem
areas and works are being taken up since, to improve Voltages and reduce
line losses.
Meanwhile, the 1st tranche of sanctioned amount i.e.
- Rs. 1,37,50,000-00 as '' grant''.
- Rs. 1,37,50,000-00 as ''loan'' at 12%
interest repayable in 15 annual instalments is released by the M.O.P,
GOI.
It is now planned to implement the
A.P.D.R.P scheme of Rs.2.75 Crore as a MODEL PILOT PROJECT in '' MOST
PROBLEM'' areas of the RESCO and observe the progress of Voltage
improvements and line loss reduction during the period April, 2004 to
September, 2004. The proposed works to be carried out are as follows -
- Conversion of existing L.T
distribution system of agricultural consumers to H.V distribution system
to reduce line losses and improve tail end voltages.
- Sectionalisation of 11KV feeders with
over loaded conduction so as to improve supply conditions without
interruptions.
- High accuracy metering to services
with high-connected load to improve metered sales.
- Estimates shall be formulated
accordingly and all such estimates exceeding Rupees 5 Lakh shall be
intimated for prior approval of Hon'ble A.P.E.R.C and works shall be
taken up there after.
After successful completion of the Model
Pilot Project for Rs. 2.75 Crores, further scheme proposals shall be taken up
duly appraising the progress achieved in Model Pilot Project to the
Ministry of Power, Government of India which has allowed to raise an equal
amount of COUNTER PART FUNDING by REC, New Delhi, backed by a ''
Guarantee'' by the Government of Andhra Pradesh.
