Reliance Power will commission the second 660 MW unit of its ultra mega power project at Sasan in Madhya Pradesh next month.
The second unit at the coal-fired plant will be tested this month and will become operational next month, a company executive told PTI.
The Sasan project is the first of three 4,000 mega watt plants that Reliance Power is building. The first 660 MW unit at Sasan was commissioned in March.
"Boiler light-up has been achieved for the second 660 MW unit at the Sasan UMPP," the company said today in a statement.
Coal production has started from the 20 million tonne per annum capacity Moher and Moher-Amlohri mines allotted to the power project, according to the statement.
Reliance Power is setting up UMPPs at Krishnapatnam in Andhra Pradesh and Tilaiya in Jharkhand.
Two 600 MW units of the company's Rosa thermal power project are operational.
Reliance Power shares traded at Rs 75.45, up 1.14 per cent, in the afternoon on the BSE.
