"Under the “Revamped Distribution Sector Scheme (RDSS)” introduced by the Ministry of Power a framework for promoting advanced technologies across power distribution sector was approved, which entailed leveraging the existing network of Technical service providers (TSP) to test and scale up use cases at Discom(s) and creating power distribution focused incubators for continuous innovation in the sector.
Accordingly powerthon-2022 was conceptualised as a forum for participation of established TSPs, startups, educational institutions, research institute, equipment manufacturers, state power utilities and other state and central power sector entities. The TSPs are to showcase their technology driven solutions to solve the complex problems of Discoms. The solutions can be based on any advanced emerging technologies like AI/ML, Blockchain, IoT, VR/AR etc.
It was launched on 7th Feb 2022 by Hon'ble Minister of Power & New and Renewable Energy Sh. R.K Singh"
