JP Power's 1000MW project to be commisioned in March

Jaiprakash Power Ventures Limited will commission the first unit of its 1,000 MW hydroelectric power project in Himachal Pradesh in March. This will be six months ahead of schedule.

Mr. Suren Jain, Managing Director of Jaiprakash Power Ventures, revealed that the first unit of the Karcham-Wangtoo hydro project will start generating 250 MW of electricity by March. The other three would start functioning by June. This is the biggest hydropower plant to be commissioned in the current five year plan

A company official said that early commissioning of the project would help the company make use of the summer and monsoon period, when higher flow of water boosts hydroelectric generation, company officials said. This will be the third hydroelectric project of Jaiprakash Power Ventures, part of the Jaypee Group.
