Dipping water levels to hit Maha's power output

Dipping lake levels might force the Maharashtra State Power Generation Company (MahaGenco) to shut down a 250 MW set at the Paras thermal power station this month. The dipping water levels in Mun river from which water is supplied to the project located in Vidarbha’s Akola district, is likely to affect the plant. MahaGenco draws water from a barrage on the river for the Paras thermal power plant, which has two power-generating sets of 250 MW each. However, the water levels have been affects due to less rainfall last monsoon.Contact: Maharashtra State Power Generation Company.Tel: 022-2647 4211.Fax: 022-26476749.Website: www.mahagenco.in
