The BBMB generated 9,679 million units (MUs) from April 1 to December 21, 2013, against the full-year target of 9,665 MUs.

According to the BBMB spokesman, this was facilitated by ensuring high machine availability of 95.08% as well as optimal water reservoir operations, leading to effective utilisation of inflows.
