IT giant IBM today said it has entered into a strategic partnership with utility firm NDPL, a Tata Power and Delhi government joint venture, to help the latter bring down their transmission losses below 10 per cent in the next three to seven years.

"IBM would provide solution to help the utility firm adopt 'smart grid' technologies which in turn would help it bring down the transmission losses from current 18 per cent to 10 per cent," IBM India Head Energy and Utilities industry Reji Pillai said.
