a) Chandra Layout G.L.R.
The work of 7ML capacity RCC GLR amounting to Rs.238 lakhs was cleared by
the Sanctioning Committee of kUIDFC to take up work under Megacity projects.The
Project was taken up and completed during 2002.
b) Energy Audit
Water supply to Bangalore is a highly power intensive project. Since many of the
major pumps and motors provided at different pumping stations have served 24 years
of life, their efficiency has goes down considerably and thereby consume more power
and discharge less. In order to assess the power loss and to suggest remedies
for effective improvement to the system, the Tata Energy Research Institute (TERI)
was entrusted with the consultancy work.
Based on the report of TERI, the task of replacement of pumps and motors, replacement
of impellers of the pumps or providing highly efficient pump motors etc. has
been completed at a cost of Rs.1790 lakhs through megacity funding.
