Odisha's Angul Collector extends coal transportation hours for Telangana power plants

Hyderabad, Oct 26 (UNI) The Angul District Collector in Odisha has extended the permitted hours for coal transportation from the Naini Coal Mine to facilitate increased supplies to Telangana’s thermal power stations, particularly the Yadadri Thermal Power Station (YTPS), Telangana Power Generation Corporation Limited (TGGENCO) said on Monday.
The permitted transportation window has been extended from four hours, between midnight and 4 am, to six hours, between 11 pm and 5 am, the corporation said in a release.
TGGENCO has been transporting coal from the Naini Coal Mine in Angul district to YTPS since August 2026.
However, the targeted transportation quantity could not be achieved due to restrictions imposed by the local administration on coal movement to the railway siding.
TGGENCO Chairman and Managing Director S. Harish and Director (Coal and Logistics) B. Nagya met the Angul District Collector on Monday and explained the need to ensure the targeted coal transportation to meet the requirements of the corporation's thermal power stations.
The CMD had also written to the District Collector seeking an extension of the permitted transportation hours to improve coal movement and ensure adequate supplies to the power plants.
