Adani receives a separate electricity license for data centers: Consumer Council files a protest with UPERC, 16 hearings.

A controversy has erupted over the proposal to grant a separate power distribution license to the Adani Group for a data center park in Noida, India. The Uttar Pradesh State Electricity Consumer Council has filed legal objections, questioning the need for a separate license when there is a possibility of supplying from the existing power distribution company's network. The council has demanded that technical capability, legal eligibility, and general consumer requirements be considered before granting the license.
