Sterlite Industries would be adding 100 MW of electricity generation capacity in the power-starved state of Tamil Nadu. The company has a copper smelter plant at Tuticorin, near the southern tip of Tamil Nadu.
Sterlite Industries, as part of its Rs 2,500-crore expansion project, is setting up a 160 MW power project, which consists of two coal fired units of 80 MW each, at a cost of Rs 650 crore. Meanwhile, it's first unit has already gone live.
The unit presently is capable of producing 400,000 tonnes of copper cathodes (pure copper), however, this year the unit would be producing 365,000 tonnes. Since each tonne requires 1,600 units, the smelter would need about 65 MW of capacity for itself. Meanwhile, the rest of the power generation will be sold in the market.
