Mumbai, Aug 6 (IANS) In a bid to help underprivileged communities, over 2,500 employees of Adani Electricity donated a large volume of garments as part of the social welfare initiative.

Adani Electricity had requested employees to donate cloths for the underprivileged communities in its distribution areas.

The employees participated enthusiastically in the social welfare drive. The donated clothes were distributed across communities and ‘padas’ (settlements) within Adani Electricity’s distribution areas. Residents of Moracha Pada in Goregaon’s Aarey Colony were among those who received clothes from the Adani Electricity team.

Meanwhile, the leading electricity distribution company in Mumbai proactively escalated its disaster management readiness for the monsoon season, aiming to safeguard its 3.15 million customers from potential disruptions.

To address any emergencies that may arise during the monsoon, Adani Electricity activated its Central Disaster Control Centre (CDCC). This pivotal hub will orchestrate response efforts and operate round-the-clock, ensuring swift action and communication throughout the monsoon period, said the leading electricity distribution company in Mumbai.

Seven Quick Response Teams (QRTs) have been strategically deployed across the distribution network. These teams are equipped with comprehensive response, recovery, and restoration plans specifically tailored for the challenges posed by the monsoon season, said the company.

To monitor rising water levels, 98 advanced water level sensors are now integrated with the Advanced Distribution Management System at critical locations. This setup enhances the ability to preempt and respond to flood-related electrical issues.

The CDCC will leverage state-of-the-art satellite and wireless technologies, including walkie-talkies and remote devices, to maintain uninterrupted communication across departments and with external authorities. This infrastructure ensures minimal downtime and efficient incident management.

Adani Electricity also conducted extensive pre-monsoon inspections and maintenance. Equipment in low-lying areas was elevated to prevent water damage. Essential materials, emergency vehicles, and diesel generators were strategically positioned to tackle any emergency swiftly.
