Background
Dhopave Thermal Power Project is a proposed 1980 megawatt (MW) coal-fired power station which the Maharashtra State Power Generation Company (Mahagenco), a Maharashtra government owned company, is seeking a private company to build.[1] The power station is proposed to be built at MIDC’s Veldur Industrial Area near Dhopave (Dhopawe) Village, in Ratnagiri district, Maharashtra State. The project will require a jetty in the Anjanwel Bay of the Vashishti river.[2]
Change from 3200 MW to 1980 MW
Originally the project was planned to be 1600 MW (2 x 800 MW). The project capacity was changed to 3200 MW (4 x 800 MW) while obtaining the Terms of Reference. After revision of the ToR, the fourth unit was cancelled and the remaining units were downsized to 660 MW each, leaving the project at 1980 MW.[2]
Landowner resistance
According to a November 2010 company presentation, land acquisition has been partially completed, but the project has been delayed because of resistance of some land owners to relinquishing their property.[2]
