NTPC has drawn a major capex plan of Rs 2,25,000 crore to expand capacity to
75,000 MW in the next seven years.
Currently, NTPC has a production capacity of a little over 30,000 MW
annually. For the additional capacity generation, NTPC is planning about 9,000
MW through hydroelectric sources, 2,000 MW through nuclear and 1,000 MW through
renewable energy resources.
NTPC may set up its proposed 2,000 MW gas based power plant at Dabhol in
Maharshtra near the existing power unit. According to sources, NTPC is planning
to invest Rs 8,000 crore to set up a power plant.
All projects are likely to be funded in the debt-equity ratio of 70:30.
