BGRESL to commence work on Ennore thermal power station project

After five years, the physical work on the 660 MW Ennore thermal power station expansion project is likely to commence with the handing over of the site to the contractor BGR Energy Systems (BGRESL).

The ETPS expansion project site was handed over to the BGRESL in June and they have started work on the testing of the structures with a team of IIT Madras experts. After the completion of the tests, the contractor will commence the work.

ETPS expansion project work has been facing delay after delay. Tangedco awarded the EPC contract to Lanco Infra Tech (LITL) in May 2014. However, the LITL faced financial troubles and work came to a halt in August 2017. Tangedco terminated the contract in April 2018 ever since the project came to a standstill.
