Jindal Power Limited's (JPL) 1,000 MW super thermal power plant in Chhattisgarh will be transferred to the national grid from August 15, and part of it could be taken by the southern states which are faced with power crisis due to failed monsoons.
Jindal Power has embarked on a massive expansion programme involving addition of 2,500 MW in Chhattisgarh and an additional 2,500 MW in Jharkhand.
Jindal Power has captive coal mines that are located at a distance of 8 km from the super thermal power plant and a conveyor tube has been set up for transporting coal between coal mines and the plant. The water requirement of the project is met by a dam constructed across the river Kurket which is around 25 km.
