This pit-head project will supply majority of the power generated to Jharkhand, Bihar, Odisha and West Bengal, thereby ensuring 24x7 availability of quality power at an affordable cost for eastern part of the country.

 

The commencement of work in this project was flagged off by Hon’ble Prime Minister, Shri Narendra Modi and now the Unit#01 of this project is Dedicated to the Nation on 01.03.2024.

 

While the project is creating direct and indirect employment opportunities in the region, various Community Development initiatives are being taken up by NTPC in areas, such as Education, Drinking water, Sanitation, Health and Women Empowerment etc.

 

The project has further improved the availability of physical infrastructure (like approach roads, drainage, communication, transportation facilities etc.) and social infrastructure (like education and health care system) in the nearby areas.
