Adani Group Commissions India’s First Transnational Power Project

Adani Group has commissioned India's first transnational power project from its Ultra-Supercritical Thermal Power Plant (USCTPP) of Adani Power located at Godda in Jharkhand, India. On 15 July 2023, the Adani Group Chairman met with the Prime Minister of Bangladesh for the follow-up of the full load commencement of Godda plant to supply power to the Bangladesh electricity grid.

 

Under the power purchase agreement (PPA) signed with the Bangladesh Power Development Board (BPDB), the plant will supply 1,496 MW. In addition, the Godda plant will supply uninterrupted and reliable electricity at a competitive tariff.

 

Adani Power Jharkhand (APJL), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Adani Power has completed the dependable capacity test for the Godda plant. With this plant, the electricity supplied from Godda will replace costly power generated in Bangladesh using liquid fuel.

 

The Godda power plant is the first in India to have started operations with 100 percent flue gas desulphurization (FGD), selective catalytic reconverter (SCR) and zero water discharge for minimizing emissions, aligning with the norms set by the Ministry of Environment, Forests, and Climate Change (MoEF&CC) of the Government of India.
