Tata Power today said a cargo ship owned by its Singapore-based subsidiary has delivered coal for the 4,000 MW power project at Mundra in Gujarat.
'Trust Integrity', owned by Singapore-based Trust Energy Resources Pte Ltd, delivered the coal from Indonesian mines to Mundra project.
"This is a significant moment for us and is aligned to our strategy of being an integrated power player. With this objective in mind, Trust Energy was setup to securitize coal supply and shipping of coal for our thermal projects," Tata Power Managing Director Anil Sardana said in a statement.
Trust Energy was set up in 2007 to help integrate coal supply chain to support growth plans of Tata Power. The entity has a portfolio of a fleet of five Cape vessels, in its first phase.
The Mundra ultra mega power project is expected to come up later this year.
"The arrival of Trust Integrity at Mundra reinforces the company's fuel supply and logistics management integration, planned for the Mundra UMPP project," the statement noted.
