Neyveli Uttar Pradesh Power Limited (NUPPL), the joint venture between NLC India Limited and UPRVUNL, has achieved a major milestone by successfully completing the “TG Rolling & Synchronization” of Unit-2 (660 MW) at the 1,980 MW Ghatampur Thermal Power Project. The unit was synchronized with the 765 kV grid at 00:05 AM today, ahead of schedule and in one smooth go following the steam blowing process.
This achievement brings NUPPL a step closer to the Commercial Operation Declaration (COD). Unit-1 of the project has been operational since December 2024, and now with Unit-2 synchronized, focus shifts to Unit-3, which is expected to be commissioned in FY 2025–26.
Located in Kanpur Nagar district, Uttar Pradesh, the Ghatampur project features three supercritical 660 MW units. It will supply over 1,480 MW to Uttar Pradesh and nearly 493 MW to Assam, making it a key power contributor in North and Northeast India. The plant is backed by its own coal supply from the Pachwara South Coal Block in Jharkhand, ensuring steady fuel availability.
Designed with modern technology, the plant incorporates FGD and SCR systems for emission control and follows a Zero Liquid Discharge policy—reflecting NUPPL’s strong environmental commitment. With Unit-2 now online, the project edges closer to full-scale operations, delivering reliable and cleaner power for the nation.
