Overview
- Adani Power has formalized a 25-year agreement to supply 1,500 MW of thermal power to Uttar Pradesh at Rs 5.383 per unit.
- The project involves a $2 billion investment to construct a greenfield ultra-supercritical power plant under the DBFOO model.
- The plant is expected to begin power supply by FY30, addressing Uttar Pradesh's projected 11,000 MW increase in thermal demand by 2033-34.
- The initiative is set to generate 8,000-9,000 construction jobs and 2,000 operational roles once the plant is functional.
- This marks Adani Power's second major win in a year, following a 6,600 MW Letter of Intent from Maharashtra in 2024.
