"In a road map to growth we have 17 under-construction projects spread across India for generation of 17,930 Mw of power, out of which 14 projects are of NTPC and four through joint ventures, which are in different stages," NTPC DGM (Finance) Sulochana Muralidharan told reporters yesterday.
"Land, water, fuel supply and power purchase agreements all are in place for these projects, which are expected to come up progressively in next 2-3 years say under the Eleventh or early Twelfth year plan," she said.
"We also invited bids for 9,632 Mw of capacity which are in 11 projects, and we expect the awards to happen within a period of 6 months to one year," Muralidharan said.
Then we have 4,245 Mw capacity projects where feasibility reports are ready and these projects are very soon going to be awarded for which NIT is to be issued, she said.
At present NTPC generates 30,644 Mw power, but our target is to reach 75,000 Mw capacity generation by 2017, she added.
