COAL & OIL GROUP SECURES US$ 250 MILLION FUNDING FOR ITS 1200MW THERMAL POWER PLANT IN INDIA
COALspot.com: Dubai-based Coal & Oil (C&O) Group has announced that it has secured additional funding of approximately Dhs. 1 billion (approximately US$250 million), to complete its 1200mw Independent Power Plant (IPP), presently under construction in Tuticorin, Tamilnadu, India.
According to Coal & Oil’s press release, developed in the Tuticorin District, Tamil Nadu, the Mutiara Thermal Power Plant aims to address the 5,000 mw power shortage in the state. The plant owes its development to Coastal Energen Pvt Ltd, the power generating Flagship Company of the Coal & Oil Group, and perhaps the region's second-largest private investor, with capital expenditures exceeding Dhs. 4.25 billion (approximately US$ 1.1 billion). The IPP will benefit from close proximity to both a major city (Tuticorin) and major port, as well as excellent road, rail and air connectivity. It is currently the first and only mega project that has commenced out of the 30 which were planned in the past 15 years.
Commenting on the immense potential of the project, Mr. Ahmed Buhari, Founder, President and CEO of the Coal and Oil Group, said, "India, and particularly, the state of Tamil Nadu, is currently facing severe power shortage. Our power project will be able to partly mitigate the hardships being faced by the state. In fact, we have committed to supplying a large part of our generation to the state grid."

The first unit of the power plant is expected to be commissioned by Q3 2014, while the second unit may follow in 6 months. According to market information all India installed capacity has reached about 134,888 MW (coal based ) as of 31 October 2013.
Currently, the largest construction in the region, the Mutiara power plant has obtained Dhs. 3.25 billion (approximately US$ 884.811 million) in funding from a consortium of Indian banks led by the State Bank of India. This latest sanction will contribute to last mile funding and address cost escalation due to recent steep rupee devaluation, among other things. The power plant is slated for completion by June 2014.
Coal & Oil Group is a US$ 750 million Integrated Energy Company involved in various aspects of Energy supplies, including coal trading, mining, shipping, logistics and power generation. Established in Dubai in 1998, it is one of the largest suppliers of coal to India. Its maiden power project, through its subsidiary, Coastal Energen Pvt Ltd, is a logical extension of the company's core Energy Management.
Total tonnage of coal imported and supplied into India by Coal & Oil was about 9 million tons in 2013. Indonesian origin of 4200 GAR coal was dominating Coal & Oil’s imports in to India in 2013.
C&O plans to import 13-15 Million tons of coal into India during the fiscal year 2014-15. Coal & Oil's annual coal import will jump over 20 million per annum, once MTPP, the 1200 Mw power plant commenced its commercial operation by 2014.
