Kochi Electricity Bill Payment Online on Bajaj Finserv
The Kochi Electricity Board is responsible for the generation, transmission, and distribution of electricity in Kochi, Kerala. It operates under the larger umbrella of the Kerala State Electricity Board (KSEB), which is a public-sector undertaking.
The Kochi division falls under the Central Kerala zone of KSEB. Kochi's power supply primarily comes from hydel (hydroelectric) and thermal power stations. The Idukki Hydroelectric Project, although located outside Kochi, is a major source of electricity for the city.
Electricity is transmitted to Kochi through a well-maintained network of high-voltage transmission lines. Substations within the city convert this high-voltage power into lower voltage for distribution. The distribution network in Kochi is robust and extensive. It includes a series of substations and transformers strategically located to manage and distribute electricity efficiently. Kochi is also focusing on integrating renewable energy sources. Solar power installations on rooftops are becoming increasingly common.
Percentage of late tariffs levied by the board
The Kerala State Electricity Board (KSEB) does not levy a late payment penalty as a percentage of the total bill. However, there are late fees associated with overdue payments.
