History
The North Chennai Thermal Power Station was commissioned in 1994 in the Thiruvallur district. It was built there due to its proximity to the Ennore Port, which also supplies Ennore Thermal Power Station. It has won various awards for productivity and reduction in auxiliary consumption. The coal necessary for the power station arrives from the Ennore Port. Recently a stator was brought to the station via the sea. In recent years due to shortage of coal in the state, coal is being imported to function the power plant.
