Background
As of November 2025, Adani Power Limited (APL) was reportedly proposing to build a 3,200 MW coal-fired power station in Assam state. APL was expected to invest US$5.2 billion in the project.[4]
In early December 2025, Adani Power sought fresh Terms of Reference (ToR) for the proposed 4 x 800 MW ultra-supercritical coal power station in Chapar, in the Dhubri district of Assam.[5] In late December 2025, the Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change Expert Appraisal Committee (EAC) recommended the grant of ToR for the proposed project.[6] ToR were formally granted in January 2026.[7]
In April 2026, the Assam Pollution Control Board had held a public hearing on the proposed coal plant in Chapar, and the project received “mixed reactions” from residents and local organizations. Adani had reportedly already started preliminary work at the project site.[8]
As of May 2026, Adani Power was seeking Environmental Clearance (EC) for its proposed coal plant in Chapar.[9]
Financing
In November 2025, Adani Power said it would invest around Rs 48,000 crore (around US$5.4 billion) to set up the power station.[10] ET EnergyWorld reported that the project would be developed under a Design, Build, Finance, Own and Operate (DBFOO) model.[11]
As of May 2026, no project-specific lenders, ECA support, bond issuance, or financial close had been publicly reported.
