Front runner in Power Distribution Reforms
Tata Power-DDL is acknowledged for its consumer-friendly practices. Since privatization, the Aggregate Technical & Commercial (AT&C) losses in Tata Power-DDL areas have shown a record decline.
Today, AT&C losses stand at 5.9 (as of FY 2023-24) which is an unprecedented reduction from an opening loss level of 53% in July 2002.
To ensure reliable power supply and to provide best in class service to its consumers, Tata Power–DDL has implemented several world-class technologies such as Advance Distribution Management system or ADMS which is designed to replace the conventional SCADA-DMS-OMS system with features like real-time integration of Smart Meter Data / Distributed Generation integration and single data model from GIS , Integrated Geographical Information System (GIS) for instant services, Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI), Automated Demand Response (ADR), Smart Street Light Management system, Field Force Automation, Upgraded Network, Integrated Toll Free Helpline No. 19124, etc.
WORLD CLASS TECHNOLOGIES
@ TATA POWER-DDL:
Advanced Distribution Management System or ADMS
CloseAdvance Distribution Management System (ADMS) is a single integrated system which will facilitate advanced monitoring, analysis, as well as control and planning, thereby enabling Tata Power-DDL to enhance the reliability, safety and efficiency of the power for the consumers. This system has advanced features of reporting outages and intimating to customers upfront. This system facilitates system controller as well as maintenance team for faster restoration of supply.

Geographical Information System
CloseGeographical Information System (GIS) is a foundational technology and single source to have repository of network, asset and consumer indexing for Tata Power-DDL. The data of this system gets integrated with ADMS, FFA, ERP, AMI, etc. for successful functioning of respective systems. This system enables delivering of results in terms of reliable & quality power along with advanced services and timely information to the consumers.
-
Smart Meter
CloseSmart Meters are basic building blocks of Smart Grid. This technology encompasses Communication System (RF in Tata Power-DDL’s case) and Data Handling Technologies (Meter Data Management System). Tata Power-DDL is implementing Smart Metering Technology (Advanced Metering Infrastructure-AMI) to bring operation efficiency in different IT and OT domains. This technology will bring transparency to consumers in terms of their consumption per month and monitoring of other critical parameters like MDI and PF on an instant basis. For Tata Power-DDL, it enables easy detection of pilferage and loss reduction. This last mile link will complete Smart Grid implementation by Tata Power-DDL.
-
Smart Street Light Management System
CloseTata Power-DDL jointly is working on a project for achieving a reduction in the demand of street lighting which coincides with peak load, thereby reducing the overall peak demand, improving the lux levels, improving the power factor and checking the carbon foot print as a responsibility to the society. This will translate into considerable saving to the exchequers. This system is entirely managed through a Smart Centralized Control & Monitoring System which can identify partially or completely affected streetlight circuits on a real-time basis and the type/nature of fault, thereby alerting the maintenance team without any requirement of consumer complaints for such purpose. This will enhance safety & security of general public. It can also detect pilferage from street light circuits and generate alerts.
-
Field Force Automation
CloseCustomer service through mobile workforce is the key to exceed the expectations of the consumer. Field Force Automation (FFA) is a system which optimizes the various tasks in hand and schedules & dispatches the nearest Crew to provide faster service to the consumers. This system not only enhances the service level but also completely tracks the allocation of workforce.
Tata Power-DDL is the first Indian utility to be a member of Global Intelligent Utility Network Coalition (GIUNC) which is a coalition of 14 power utilities worldwide and is working towards accelerating the development of common standards, technology solutions and processes for intelligent networks.
Tata Power-DDL provides various facilities and services to its consumers for their ease and convenience such as 24X7 Integrated Helpline, Mobile Application for both iOS and Android users, bilingual website, Multiple Payment Avenue, End to End online services for New Connection, etc.
