Indian Railway Finance Corporation (IRFC) has signed a loan agreement with Haryana Power Generation Corporation (HPGCL) at its Corporate Headquarters in Panchkula for financing of up to Rs 5,929 crore towards the upcoming 800 MW (3rd Unit) supercritical thermal power project at Deenbandhu Chhotu Ram Thermal Power Plant (DCRTPP), Yamunanagar.
The project is of strategic importance in strengthening Haryana's power supply for households, industries, and agriculture. With this addition, HPGCL will significantly augment the state's generation capacity through modern, efficient technology. HPGCL, a wholly owned Government of Haryana undertaking, is the state's primary power generation utility, entrusted with operating and expanding Haryana's thermal power generation capacity.
The partnership between IRFC and HPGCL also carries strong forward and backward linkages with Indian Railways. HPGCL's thermal plants depend on coal transported by Indian Railways from eastern coal fields, ensuring steady freight traffic, while the power generated feeds into the Northern Grid, directly supporting Indian Railways' traction requirements and energy needs across Haryana.
Indian Railway Finance Corporation (IRFC) is the dedicated market borrowing arm of the Indian Railways.
