Coastal Gujarat Power limited (CGPl), a wholly owned subsidiary of Tata Power, has successfully completed three years of operation, generating 62,945.77 MUs of electricity from 2012 to 2015.
It is India’s first ultra mega power plant that meets 2 per cent of country’s power needs and benefits close to 16 million domestic consumers, apart from supplying cost competitive power to industry and agriculture.
Expressing his delight, Anil Sardana, CEO & MD, Tata Power, said, “The year 2015 marks 3 years of CGPl’s operations. The project remains a marvel and is a fine example of world-class technology combined with innovations by the project team. Over the last 3 years, we have lit up millions of homes with electricity, and have touched even more lives with our dedicated team living up to the Group philosophy of ‘serving the society’. Towards this, we have ensured a steady, mutual growth of the Company and the surrounding community by exploring and engaging, and building and formalising relationships with the communities. We are thrilled by our achievements so far, and will continue on this path of growth and development.”
