Public utilities

Public utilities for the Museum locality are managed by robust state-level agencies serving the Thiruvananthapuram municipal area.

* **Electricity**: Power is supplied and managed by the **Kerala State Electricity Board (KSEB)**. The area experiences relatively stable power, given its importance as a tourist and government hub. * **Water Supply**: Managed by the **Kerala Water Authority (KWA)**, drawing primarily from the Aruvikkara and Peppara dams. * **Waste Management**: The **Thiruvananthapuram Municipal Corporation (TMC)** handles sanitation. The city operates a decentralized waste management system (including green bins and local composting) which has been cited as a model for urban India. * **Gas**: Domestic gas is primarily supplied via LPG cylinders (Indane, Bharat Gas), though piped natural gas (PNG) infrastructure is slowly expanding across the city.
