On the rising power demand in the State and the way to meet it, Das said: “Assam will need 2,200 MW of power everyday during the summer against 1,700 MW during the winter when each and every family in the State will be given power connection. While a portion of this power will be met from our own generation by APGCL, the rest of the power demand will be met from NEEPCO, Tripura Power Company, NTPC, NHPC, HPCL, Indian Energy Express and Central Sector Generation Stations (CSGS).”
