Reliance Power Limited is part of the Reliance Anil Dhirubhai Ambani Group and is established to develop, construct and operate power projects domestically and internationally. The Company on its own and through subsidiaries is currently developing 16 large and medium sized power projects with a combined planned installed capacity of 33,780 MW, one of the largest portfolios of power generation assets under development in India. Our 16 power projects are planned to be diverse in geographic location, fuel type, fuel source and off-take, and each project is planned to be strategically located near an available fuel supply or load center. The identified project sites are located in western India (12,520 MW), northern India (9,080 MW) , northeastern India (4,220 MW), southern India (4,000 MW) and eastern India (3960 MW). They include seven coal-fired projects (18,880 MW) to be fueled by reserves from captive mines and supplies from India and abroad, two gas-fired projects (10,280 MW) to be fueled primarily by reserves from the Krishna Godavari Basin (the "KG Basin") off the east coast of India, and seven hydroelectric projects (4,620 MW), three of them in Arunachal Pradesh and one in Uttarakhand. Reliance Power has been successful in bagging three Ultra Mega Power Projects (3,960 MW each at Sasan in Madhya Pradesh & Tilaiya in Jharkhand and 4,000MW at Krishnapatnam in Andhra Pradesh). The 7,480 MW project to be located at Dadri in Uttar Pradesh is expected to be the largest gas-fired power project at a single location in the world. We intend to sell the power generated by these projects under a combination of long-term and short-term PPAs to state-owned and private distribution companies and industrial consumers.
