Third 800 MW supercritical power unit goes on stream at Krishnapatnam

Deccan Chronicle  

Krishnapatnam: The third 800 MW supercritical unit at the Sri Damodaram Sanjeevaiah Thermal Power Station here goes on stream on Thursday, over three years behind schedule, giving some respite to Andhra Pradesh that has been facing a shortage of power during evening peak hours. Stage-1 of SDSTPS with 2x800 MW supercritical units was inaugurated by the then Union Minister for Power Piyush Goyal on February 27, 2016, who simultaneously laid the foundation stone for the Stage-2 800 MW supercritical unit. On June 26, 2019, Chief Minister Y S Jagan Mohan Reddy asked the AP Genco to reduce cost of the 800 MW unit and save money. AP Genco sources said stabilisation of the unit at the full load of 800 MW has been completed in the second week of this month.
