Domestic (household) electricity consumption is the highest in Bihar, accounting for 44.5% of total electricity consumption in the state. This is followed by industry (32.5%), agriculture (18.5%), and commercial (4.5%).<\/p>\n

Domestic electricity consumption is high in Bihar due to a number of factors, including the state’s large population, its hot climate, and its reliance on electric appliances for cooking, lighting, and cooling. The state’s population is over 100 million, making it the third most populous state in India. The state’s climate is hot and humid, which drives up demand for air conditioning and other cooling appliances. Additionally, many households in Bihar rely on electric appliances for cooking, lighting, and water heating.<\/p>\n

Industrial electricity consumption is driven by the state’s manufacturing sector, which includes industries such as textiles, food processing, and pharmaceuticals.
