Wඐඍකඍඉඛ, the Chairman and Managing Director, Tamil Nadu Generation and Distribution Corporation Limited (TANGEDCO)
has stated that at present the Coal Stock at TANGEDCO’s thermal power stations is very critical and that the supply of
Indigenous coal from Coal India limited and its subsidiaries is very less;
Aඖඌ Wඐඍකඍඉඛ, the coal stock available at the three loading ports, namely Haldia, Paradip and Vizag is only 1.55 LT and
that the movement of Indian coal is futher reduced at times when there is heavy rainfall, fl ood or cyclonic weather conditions;
Aඖඌ Wඐඍකඍඉඛ, the vessels programmed to load at the Paradip port have failed to load due to cyclone and that the
condition at Haldia port is that it is also water logged due to heavy rain and loading/unloading of coal from wagons and
movement of vessels are aff ected and that in the previous years normally wind generation will be at its full swing between
April and October 2018, but this year 2018-19, wind generation has reduced during September 2018 itself;
Aඖඌ Wඐඍකඍඉඛ, in this situation, thermal generation is vital to keep the power supply situation stable in the State and
in view of the above, the Chairman and Managing Director, Tamil Nadu Generation and Distribution Corporation Limited
