The largest integrated utility Tata Power has kicked off its centenary celebrations and announced investments for generating a capacity for 450 MW of hydel power from this year and commissioning of 120 MW this year itself.
The company is also planning a fresh investment to create a 450 mw hydel capacity in the honour of the group founder Jamsetji N Tata who was a strong votary of clean and cheap power, which the late leader considered as one of the basic ingredients for economic progress of a city, a state or a country.
The country’s largest integrated power company began its operations on February 9, 1915, by commissioning the country’s first large hydroelectric project with a capacity of 12 MW at Khopoli near Mumbai.
