Adani Power Seals 25-Year Bihar Deal for 2,400 MW From New Pirpainti Plant

The 3x800 MW ultra‑supercritical project will be built under a DBFOO model with a SHAKTI coal linkage at a bid tariff of Rs 6.075 per kWh.

Overview

  • The agreement converts an August Letter of Award into a binding 25-year contract with Bihar’s state generator.
  • Power will be delivered to North and South Bihar distribution companies through BSPGCL.
  • Adani Power plans about $3 billion of investment to build the 3x800 MW facility and associated infrastructure under DBFOO.
  • The company targets full commissioning within 60 months of the appointed date.
  • The project is expected to support roughly 10,000–12,000 construction jobs and about 3,000 operational roles, as part of Adani’s wider baseload expansion that has recently added awards in Madhya Pradesh.
