 India's success story is ignited by the might of the energy sector. The government of India under the visionary Prime Minister, Shri Narendra Modi, focuses on development with power to all as its mantra. India is full of energy. India's energy future is bright and secure. With this mantra, a new 1,000 megawatt capacity Lignite Fueled Thermal Power Station with two 500 megawatt units has been established at Nevely. Constructed at a project cost of 8,000 crore rupees, these are the first Lignite-fired boilers of 500 megawatt capacity in India, feeding 65% of its generated power to Tamil Nadu. With 100% ash utilization, this Nevely new thermal power project will meet all the environmental regulations. The power generated by this plant will be highly competitive amongst the thermal power stations in South India. With the mandate to energize the power sector for supply of clean and green energy, solar power projects have been established across Tirunelveli, Toothukudi, Ramanadapuram and Virudhanagar districts of Tamil Nadu, with a total capacity of 709 megawatts at a project cost of 3,000 crore rupees. Today, as our Honorable Prime Minister, Shri Narendra Modi, dedicates these two power projects of NLC India to the nation, one more chapter of India's bright future is written in the state of Tamil Nadu.
