New Delhi: NTPC is the biggest power company in India, but it is yet to bag an ultra mega power project under its belt. It is finally looking to reverse the trend and has tied up with Indonesian company Sugico Graha for all coastal UMPPs to be offered. According to sources, NTPC-Sugico tie-up is only for coastal UMPPs and it has already signed confidentiality agreement with Sugico.
Sugico Graha''s big oil coal blocks in Indonesia will give NTPC enough room to make competitive bidding and that will give the coal linkage for the three coastal UMPPs. And on a day when stock market witnessed yet another fall, NTPC seems to be powering ahead. The analysts believe that the company has enough potential, not only for UMPPs but also for other projects too.
The government is pushing the power PSUs to add capacity to achieve its XIth plan targets of 78,000 MW. To match the efficiency and competiion efficiency of the aggressive private sector power companies, it is pushing the PSUs for tie-ups with foreign partners. in this case too, it is learnt that the Power Secretary Anil Razdan himself has taken the lead to push NTPC to explore the opportunity with Indonesian companies for coal linkages.
