EM NEWS BUREAU ,  Thursday, April 26, 2012, 15:13 Hrs  [IST]

Reliance Power has fully commissioned its 1,200 mw Rosa thermal power project in Uttar Pradesh. The milestone was reached when the fourth and final coal-fired unit of 300 mw was declared commercial on March 31, 2012. Unit 4 was commissioned four months ahead of schedule. Unit 3, when commissioned in December 2011, was also ahead of its implementation schedule.

The 4x300-mw Rosa project has several firsts to its credit. It represents the largest private sector investment in Uttar Pradesh, standing at around Rs.6,000 crore. It is also the first new thermal power project to be set up in UP in the last 20 years. The Rosa project represents the first operational power plant of Reliance Power Ltd. The Anil Ambani enterprise has a portfolio of over 19,000 mw of thermal, hydropower and renewable energy projects under various stages of development and construction.

The Rosa power project located in Shahjahanpur district will entirely serve Uttar Pradesh. It is estimated that the thermal power plant will contribute to over 15 per cent of the state's total energy requirement and substantially help in bridging the northern state's power deficit. In the first eleven months (April to February) of FY12, Uttar Pradesh faced an energy deficit of 11.4 per cent with its requirement of 74,354 million units fulfilled to the extent of only 65,890 million units, as per information released by Central Electricity Authority.
