Project Location
The map below shows the construction site as identified in Wikimapia, near the city of Ramagundam.[1] The location is about 30 km north of the location described in the 2009 Environmental Clearance.[2]
Background
The project is that is proposed by Singareni Collieries, India's second largest coal mining company. It was originally permitted as a 600 MW (2 x 300 MW) power station, according to the first Environmental Clearance issued October 28, 2009.[2]
In December 2010 a new Environmental Clearance was issued for a 1200 MW (2 x 600 MW) project.[3] The project is under construction.[4]
In April 2011, it was reported that Singareni Collieries had achieved financial closure for the $1.4-billion station, expected to be operational in April 2014. Of the 1200 MW, 150 MW would be earmarked for SCCL's use and the remaining 1050 MW would be sold to AP Transco.[5]
In March 2014 Singareni Collieries Company invited bids for construction of the 1200 MW power station.[6]
