Telangana’s Yadadri thermal power plant (TPP) is likely to be commissioned in September 2023.
The 4,000 MW TPP is billed as the biggest TPP to be set up in the public sector. The plant is under construction in Damarcherla mandal of Nalgonda district at an estimated cost of Rs 299.92 billion. Once the project is commissioned, Telangana will no longer have any power deficit. Bharat Heavy Electricals Limited (BHEL) has bagged the contract for the construction of the super critical plant. The TPP will have five units of 800 MW each. The first unit will start generating power in September 2023. The second unit is expected to commission in December 2023 and the remaining two units in 2024.
