26 Jun 2012 Evaluate

Reliance Power has synchronized the first of two units of its 600 MW Butibori Thermal Power Project near Nagpur in Maharashtra. Power generated from the plant will mainly be distributed to industrial as well as distribution utilities in Maharashtra.

The first unit of the plant has been synchronized in a record time of just over 21 months from boiler erection to synchronization. The second 300 MW unit of the plant is also on track for commissioning before the end of this calendar year.

The investment of over Rs 3,600 crore in the Butibori plant represents one of the biggest investment made in Maharashtra. The plant is among the most compact sized thermal plants in the country with its 600 MW capacity requiring not more than 275 acres of plant land.

Reliance Power is part of the Reliance Anil Dhirubhai Ambani Group and is established to develop, construct and operate power projects domestically and internationally. The company on its own and through subsidiaries is currently developing 13 medium and large sized power projects with a combined planned installed capacity of 28,200 MW, one of the largest portfolios of power generation assets under development in India.
