Coal India (CIL), the world’s largest coal miner will be inking fuel supply agreements (FSAs) with 150 power plants by September 16 for a capacity of 78,000 MW of the total 80,000 MW. The company has already received its board's approval for signing of FSAs for a capacity of 78,000 MW. The said capacity is to be signed with power plants which are either commissioned or likely to be commissioned by 2015. However, many power companies are yet to sign FSAs with the CIL on various reasons like non achievement of milestones.
