⚡ India's Shocking Electricity Divide ⚡
Where the majority lives vs. where the power flows.
📊 Over 80% of electricity consumers in India are domestic users, yet they consume only 30.54% of the power. Meanwhile, industries, with less than 8% of the user base, consume 31.9% of total electricity.
💡 Curious insight: Agriculture gets the cheapest rate (₹4.1/unit), while ‘Others’ pay the highest (₹9.1/unit) — but guess who’s consuming the most?
🔍 Data shows a massive demand–supply mismatch between consumption share and consumer count. This has huge implications for:
- ⚙️ Infrastructure investment
- 📉 Subsidy allocation
- 🏠 Household energy policy
