POWER PLANT SUFFERS FROM COAL CRISIS - THE STATESMAN
The 3,000 mw NTPC-Kaniha power plant, the second biggest in the country, is facing an unprecedented coal crisis with stocks dipping to a low of only 19,000 tonnes as against a minimum stock of eight lakh (800,000 )tonne.
Ironically, the power plant is barely 30 km from Talcher Coalfield which produces more than two lakh (200,000) tonnes per day.
While sources in NTPC say the stocks have fallen due to short supply, others connected to Mahanadi Coalfield insist that there is adequate coal at the pithead and it is only for the NTPC to lift the coal.
The fact, however, is that the existing coal stock at NTPC Kaniha is at a record low of 19,000 tonne. The thermal plant feeds power to as many as 17 states.
Reliable sources said generation has been curtailed to 2,800 MW per day to try and stretch the available coal reserves for as many days as possible.
The source disclosed that the coal stock stood at 2.6 lakh (260,000) tonne at the end of March last but, has started dwindling since then due to short supply.
While the average daily demand of the plant stands at 55,000 tonne the supply in the month of April and May was at 48,700 tonne and 46,800 tonne respectively, including 3,500 tonne of import coal.
NTPC-Kaniha normally draws coal from its Lingaraj mine at Talcher besides coal from IB valley field and other mines of Talcher coal field. It also takes one rake of import coal per day.
To the woes of the NTPC, their supply of imported coal has also been hit for the last three days as ships from Indonesia are yet to berth at Paradip Port due to problems.
“Talks are on with the MCL to beef up the supply from Talcher, particularly from the Lingaraj mine,” said these sources. MCL official sources on the other hand refused to share blame for the crisis saying that it has enough coal stock at Talcher
