Bharat Heavy Electricals (BHEL), the state-run power equipment major has commissioned India's first 525 Mw thermal set for the Maithon Right Bank thermal power project in Jharkhand. The 2x525 Mw greenfield power project is being implemented by Maithon Power (MPL), a joint venture between Tata Power and Damodar Valley Corporation.

This was the first order secured by BHEL for the new rating units of 525 MW. Afterward, BHEL has secured orders for four more such units, taking the number of 525 MW sets contracted to six sets. The company is in the process of augmenting its capacity to 20,000 Mw per year from existing 15,000 Mw per annum.
