PTC plans to explore various opportunities to sell this power to state utilities under long-term, medium-term and short-term power sale arrangements.
PTC has a portfolio of long-term PPAs with 10,000 MW power capacity consisting of coal-based, large hydro and renewable energy projects. This marks PTC's first long-term power agreement with a lignite-based power project.
Rajib K Mishra, CMD, PTC India, said in the statement, "This agreement adds to PTC's long-term power portfolio and reinforces our commitment to securing a reliable energy supply. We recognise the growing importance of renewable energy and believe that achieving the right balance between conventional and renewable sources is vital to ensuring a sustainable and secure energy future for our country."
