City power discoms are encouraging Delhi residents to switch off non-essential electrical appliances between 8:30 pm and 9:30 pm on Saturday as part of Earth Hour to support environmental sustainability.
BSES discoms BRPL and BYPL have partnered with WWF-India for the event, themed 'Give an Hour for Earth,' and are calling on approximately 54 lakh consumers in Delhi to participate.
Last year's Earth Hour saw a reduction of 269 MW in electricity usage in Delhi. The initiative marks 20 years of global climate action, with discoms employing social media, SMS, and email to encourage widespread involvement.
