Delhi Cut Electricity Loss from 50 to 5 Percent
Delhi has reduced its electricity distribution losses from roughly half of all power supplied to around five percent, according to an IEEE Spectrum report. The turnaround involved overhauling a distribution system once plagued by theft, faulty meters and unpaid bills. Commenters are highlighting it as a striking example of how infrastructure reform and metering technology can transform a utility system in a major developing-world city.
Why now: The scale of the improvement in a huge capital city makes it a notable infrastructure success story being shared among technology readers.
