State-owned SJVN on Friday announced commercial operations of the first unit of its 1,320 MW Buxar thermal power project in Bihar.
The plant comprises two units, each with a capacity of 660 megawatt (MW).
In an exchange filing, SJVN said it has achieved the Commercial Operation Date (COD) for Unit-1 (660 MW) of the 1,320 MW (2×660 MW) Buxar Thermal Power Project on Friday.
The Buxar Thermal Power Project in Bihar’s Buxar district is being implemented by SJVN Thermal Private Limited, a wholly owned subsidiary of SJVN.
The project will generate 9,828.72 million units of electricity annually, out of which 85 per cent power has been allocated to Bihar under a long-term Power Purchase Agreement.
The project will substantially enhance power availability in Bihar and the eastern region, reducing peak-hour shortages and strengthening energy security. PTI
