Tanda thermal power plant

Location
  
Ambedkarnagar, Uttar Pradesh

Tanda Thermal Power Station is located in Ambedkar Nagar district in the Indian state of Uttar Pradesh. The power plant is one of the coal based power plants of NTPC. The coal for the power plant is sourced from North Karnpura Coal Fields. Source of water for the power plant is from Tanda Pump Canal on Saryu River.

In the year 2000, Uttar Pradesh State Electricity Board (U.P.S.E.B.) transferred Tanda Thermal Power Plant to NTPC Limited against payment overdue. After acquisition of this plant, because of the better maintenance by NTPC Limited, this power plant has crossed its Plant Load Factor (P.L.F.) to more than 100%.

For Stage-II, NTPC Limited has started construction/installation of two new units of 660 MWs each.

Stage-I  : 4x110 MWs = 440 MWs (Current Power Generation)

Stage-II : 660 MW + 660 MW = 1320 MW

Total Power Generation (After completion of Stage-II): 1720 MWs
