CIL has signed FSA's with 140 power plants: Coal Secretary

The government today said Coal India (CIL) has so far entered into fuel supply pacts with about 140 power plants, amid the deadline for signing FSAs expiring last month.

     

"So far around 140 fuel supply agreements (FSAs) have been signed," Coal secretary S K Srivastava told reporters on the sidelines of a function organised by CII.

     

According to Coal India Chairman, S Narsing Rao, some FSA's are yet to be signed because of certain issues concerning those power plants.

     

Coal india has to sign 173 FSAs for a capacity of 78,000 MW.
