Under the leadership of Minister V. Senthil Balaji, guided by Chief Minister M.K. Stalin, Tamil Nadu's power sector has seen a major transformation. Amid global energy crises, Balaji's strategic reforms protected consumers from rising costs, ensured 24/7 electricity, and strengthened the financial health of TANGEDCO. The state's renewable energy capacity, especially in solar and wind, has surged with strong public-private partnerships. A shift toward clean fuels like LNG has reduced emissions and operational costs. Technological upgrades, smart grids, and over 500 EV charging stations have modernized infrastructure and enhanced reliability. People-centric policies like no tariff hikes and free electricity for low-income households underline the government's commitment to inclusive growth. Tamil Nadu now stands as a national model for sustainable, resilient, and accessible power reforms.
