{{#badges: CoalSwarm|Navbar-Indiacoal}} Thamminapatnam power station is a 600-megawatt (MW) coal plant in Andhra Pradesh, India.

Location

The photo below shows the first four units of the plant.

Background

The project is being developed by Simhapuri Energy Private Limited (SEPL) in three phases. Phase I comprises 2 units of 150 MW; Phase II comprises two units of 150 MW each; and Phase II comprises two supercritical units of 660 MW each.[1][2]

Phase I, Unit 1 (150 MW) was commissioned on March 24, 2012,[3] and Phase I, Unit 2 (150 MW) was commissioned in July 2012.[4]

Phase II, Unit 3 (150 MW) was commissioned in February 2014.[5] As of March 2015 Phase II, Unit 4 (150 MW) is listed as synchronized.[6]

Phase III was issued a terms of reference in 2011,[7] which was renewed in September 2014.[8] There has been no further permits or updates on phase III, and it appears to be deferred or abandoned.
