Essar Power on 1 November 2012 secured 'Stage I' forest clearance from the MoEF for its Mahan coal block in Madhya Pradesh.
This clearance will help expedite supply of fuel to Essar Energy's nearby 1,200 MW Mahan Phase I power project, which is due to be commissioned shortly. The block was allocated in 2006 to Mahan Coal, a JV between Essar Energy and Hindalco.
