2. Introduction

2012.
OAUA is a forum of Open Access (O.A) users which aims to create a responsible
forum to highlight consumer awareness on various types of O.A charges levied by
different States and their implications.
OAUA also aims at adhering to safety, security & commercial issues to all Open
Access consumers in the Power Market.
We also aim to highlight technical requirements/parameters which are insisted
upon by the State Transmission & Distribution companies which may not be
required.
4. Current Open Access Scenario in UP
Uttar Pradesh govt. is not providing open access for interstate, only for intra
state they are providing Open Access but as the tariff is too high industries
are not able to purchase power through open access.
UP has not allowed even a single industrial or commercial unit the facility of
open access, though regulations are in place, industry sources said.
Most of the industries are closed down in UP in the past one year as because
of increasing Tariff Rates and even some of them are moving to different
states like HP.
