The first agreement was signed in Panchkula, where IRFC is providing HPGCL with financing of up to Rs. 5,929 crore, which will be utilized for the establishment of an 800 MW (3rd unit) supercritical thermal power project under development at the Deenbandhu Chhotu Ram Thermal Power Plant (DCRTPP) in Yamunanagar. The project aims to enhance the overall availability of electricity to households, industries, and agricultural consumers in Haryana, once it is commissioned.
The second loan agreement was signed at IRFC's New Delhi office, providing MAHAGENCO with financing of up to Rs. 10,560 crore in total to support the establishment of the 2x660 MW supercritical expansion project at Koradi Thermal Power Station (TPS) in Nagpur. The newer project aims to replace 1,320 MW of outdated and inefficient units currently used for improved supply reliability in Maharashtra.
These projects are important for both states, not only for generating power, but also for their impacts on infrastructure and logistics. The coal-fired power plants of HPGCL rely on the utilization of coal, transported across state lines from the eastern coalfields using Indian Railways, creating a constant flow of demand for freight. The power produced will also contribute to the Northern Grid, including feeding traction needs of the railways.
MAHAGENCO has established multiple long-term Tripartite Agreements with Indian Railways for moving coal. As MAHAGENCO pays significant annual costs on coal freight, wagon gaming, and logistics, its contribution to the country's logistics model contributes significantly to the freight revenue of Indian Railways.
Here is a breakdown of the financing details:
Project | Borrower | Capacity | Loan Amount |
DCRTPP (3rd Unit) | HPGCL | 800 MW | Rs.5,929 crore |
Koradi TPS Expansion | MAHAGENCO | 1,320 MW | Rs.10,560 crore |
Total | - | 2,120 MW | Rs.16,489 crore |
