|May 08, 2025
THE commissioning of the Udangudi supercritical thermal power plant, being constructed by Bharat Heavy Electricals Limited (BHEL), may be further delayed due to labour shortage and attrition.
The plant's operation, expected to start power generation by May this year, may be delayed till September as nearly 15% of work is pending, sources said.
The plant has been designed to produce 1,320 MW of power per day from two units of 660-MW capacity each.
BHEL began work on the Udangudi TPP in 2018 and the plan was to commission unit 1 by September 2024 and unit 2 by January 2025.
Tangedco chairman and managing director Dr J Radhakrishnan recently said that power generation would begin by May 2025.
