Electricity Bill Payment

Initially, only sizable towns and cities had significant electrification. The supply to dense urban areas was the main focus. The many providers did not work together or coordinated little. Private plants predominated in the power industry. In Delhi, India, the first diesel power station was built in 1905. This was a personal facility established by a man from England by the name of M/s John Fleming. In accordance with the Indian Electricity Act of 1903's stipulations, he received a licence. After receiving a licence, this specific company installed a tiny 2 MW diesel set near Lahori Gate in Old Delhi. The same business then changed its name to the Delhi Electric Supply and Traction Company.
