In order to save substantially on its power bill, Southern Petrochemicals Industries Corporation (SPIC) is reportedly planning to invest in power generation companies. The company’s annual power requirement of 110 million units is met through 80 million units from TANGEDCO and 30 million units from captive sources.

The cost of TANGEDCO power is Rs 6.90 per unit. The cost incurred works out to Rs 55.20 crore, excluding maximum demand charges. The cost of power from private power generating companies, as a captive user is considerably cheaper than TANGEDCO power and would help SPIC save substantially on the power bill.

Southern Petrochemical Industry Corporation since its founding has been providing product and services that feed, nourish, and protect the agriculture and rural ecosystem. The company is now a well diversified one with area of businesses spreading from fertilizers to pharma.
