Project-level coal details

• Coal source(s): Indian Coal from South Eastern Coalfields Limited/Mahanadi Coalfields; Limited through railway or Blending with Imported Coal in the ratio of 50:49, Indian Coal from South Eastern Coalfields Limited/Mahanadi Coalfields; Limited through railway or Blending with Imported Coal in the ratio of 50:50

Background

The project received a terms of reference in 2011. According to the project's Environmental Impact Assessment, the 1,320 MW power station would take up 800 acres, use either 50% or 100% India coal, and be completed within 3-4 years.

Since then the project has not received environmental clearance, and appears to be deferred or abandoned.
