India’s first pvt power plant to go commercial

The country’s first mega power project in the private sector will be fully commercial by August 15, Minister of State of Commerce and Power Jairam Ramesh said today.

The Minister, who is on the visit to the unit — 1,000-Mw O P Jindal Super Thermal Power Plant at Tamnar near Raigarh in Chhattisgarh, said private power companies should stop poaching on PSUs like NTPC and BHEL.

The first mega power plant is being set up by Jindal Power Ltd (JPL), an official statement said today.

The Rs 4,300-crore power complex, which has four units of 250 Mw each supplied by BHEL, is already feeding over 800 Mw into the grid
