Reliance Power is working to bring online the 600 MW Phase II of its Rosa Power Project in Uttar Pradesh three months ahead of the targeted date of March 31, 2012. As a result, revenues will start flowing in this fiscal itself. All approvals are in place and coal linkage has been assured with the company getting a letter of assurance for supplies from the Central coal mines in Jharkhand.
Phase I of the plant supplies 600 MW to the Uttar Pradesh Government, in accordance with the power purchase agreement inked with the State. The unit tariff is about Rs 1.45 plus cost, which works to Rs 3.50 with fuel cost to the purchaser's account. The UP Government has also committed to lifting 300 MW from the Phase II on commissioning of the 300X 2 MW, besides considering drawing the balance power, given the shortage in the State. Rpower's supply to the State as of April totals 377 million units or 7 per cent of the purchaser's receipt of 5,447 million units. Total capacity dedicated to the State is 10,081 MW, of which, Rpower's share is 6 per cent. The Rs 6,000-crore Rosa project, totalling 1,200 MW, is considered the largest private sector investment in Uttar Pradesh by an independent power producer.
Rpower is also erecting a 10-km 400kV transmission line to evacuate power from Rosa II to the Central Grid (Power Grid Corporation Grid) at a cost of Rs 22 crore. This is primarily to enable flexibility in power evacuation. For Rosa I, a 200kV transmission line is in place to evacuate the power generated by the 600 MW unit.crackcrack
