TGGENCO, SCCL plan to boost coal supply to Yadadri power plant

Hyderabad, Oct 5 (UNI) TGGENCO Chairman and Managing Director S Harish, along with SCCL officials, visited the Naini Coal Mines in Odisha to review measures to increase coal supplies to the 5x800 MW Yadadri Thermal Power Station (YTPS).
The visit focused on resolving logistical bottlenecks and implementing an action plan to raise coal dispatches to YTPS to 16,000 tonnes per day. The management reviewed transport infrastructure, railway rake availability and local transit constraints to ensure uninterrupted movement of coal from Odisha to Telangana.
Harish said coal from the Naini block was essential for the efficient operation of YTPS’s supercritical units.
He said enhanced supplies would strengthen fuel stocks, support the operation of all units and help meet Telangana’s growing electricity demand.
The initiative is aimed at strengthening energy security and ensuring uninterrupted power supply to domestic, agricultural and industrial consumers in the state, an official statement said on Monday.
