Reliance Power said that with the commissioning of 400 kilovolts (kV) switchyard at the Sasan Ultra Mega Power Plant (UMPP), the 3,960 megawatts (MW) UMPP is now connected to the national grid. The project is now ready to draw power from the grid to provide start-up power for the first 660 MW unit which is nearing completion, five months ahead of the scheduled date of commissioning, the company said. The same switchyard would enable evacuation of the power to seven states which would be using power from the Sasan UMPP, Reliance Power said.
Reliance Power early this month said the coal production has begun from the 20 million tonnes Moher and Moher-Amlohri coal mines. Sasan UMPP thus has both the fuel as well as the off-take systems in place for its commissioning ahead of schedule, the company said in a statement.
