To do so, an engineer must first understand power system economics and tariffs with detailed calculations.

     This course includes calculation of cost of production of electrical energy and tariff using various methods such as two part, three part, TOD, ABT and kVAh tariff.  This course have two main sections: one is related to power system economics and another is power system tariff.

     This course can be opted by utility engineers, professionals and undergraduate final year and post graduate students of various universities
