==Background==
In January 2014 project sponsor [[NTPC]] said it was planning on fast-tracking the project. The project was initially to use domestic coal, but facing difficulty in securing a coal linkage, it may use imported coal. It is awaiting land clearance from the India government, and will then seek the necessary permits, after which it will take an estimated 42 months to implement each of the five 800 MW units.<ref>[http://www.thehindubusinessline.com/companies/ntpc-seeks-to-fast-track-pudimadaka-project/article5631569.ece "NTPC seeks to fast track Pudimadaka project,"] The Hindu Online, Jan 29, 2014.</ref>
