COAL & OIL TO SET UP ANOTHER 1,600 MW POWER PLANT IN INDIA - VENKATARAMANI


COALspot.com: Dubai-based Coal & Oil (C&O) Group is planning to make additional investment of around US$ 1.61 billion to set up 1,600 mega watt of power plant in Tuticorin, Tamil Nadu. The company is already investing around US$ 1.09 billion to set up 1,200 MW plant in the same district.

R Venkataramani, vice president – finance and accounts, C&O Group, said that public hearing was completed for the proposed expansion. Once the existing project completes, the company will take the next phase of expansion which would attract investment to the tune of around US$ 1.61 billion, as quoted by Business Standard of India. He added, the company has enough land available, to the tune of around 1,000 acres (approximately 404.68 hectares) in Tuticorin for both upcoming and proposed expansion, the paper added.

 “ Developed in the Tuticorin District, Tamil Nadu, the Mutiara Thermal Power Plant aims to address the 5,000mw power shortage in the state. The company has signed a Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) with the Tamil Nadu Generation and Distribution Corporation Limited (TANGEDCO) for 600 MW,” he added, as quoted by Business standard.

Recently, C&O has announced that it has secured additional funding of approximately Dhs. 1 billion (approximately US$250 million), to complete its 1200mw Independent Power Plant (IPP), presently under construction in Tuticorin, Tamilnadu, India. The plant owes its development to Coastal Energen Pvt Ltd, the power generating Flagship Company of the Coal & Oil Group, and perhaps the region's second-largest private investor, with capital expenditures exceeding Dhs. 4.25 billion (approximately US$ 1.1 billion). According to company’s recent press release, the first unit of the power plant is expected to be commissioned by Q3 2014, while the second unit may follow in 6 months.

The Indian power market information indicates that, all India installed capacity has reached about 134,888 MW (coal based ) as of 31 October 2013.

Coal & Oil Group is a US$ 750 million Integrated Energy Company involved in various aspects of Energy supplies, including coal trading, mining, shipping, logistics and power generation. Established in Dubai in 1998, it is one of the largest suppliers of coal to India. Its maiden power project, through its subsidiary, Coastal Energen Pvt Ltd, is a logical extension of the company's core Energy Management.

Total tonnage of coal imported and supplied into India by Coal & Oil was about 9 million tons in 2013. Indonesian origin of 4200 GAR coal was dominating Coal & Oil’s  imports in to India in 2013.

C&O plans to import 13-15 Million tons of coal into India during the fiscal year 2014-15. Coal & Oil's annual coal import will jump over 20 million per annum, once MTPP, the 1200 Mw power plant commenced its commercial operation by H2' 2014.
