JSW Energy JV Gets Nod to Raise Capacity of Rajasthan Mine
New Delhi: JSW Energy on Tuesday said one of its joint ventures has received the environmental clearance to increase the annual mining capacity of Kapurdi Lignite Mines to seven million tonnes for a period of four years.
The approval has been received by Barmer Lignite Mining Company Ltd (BLMCL) - a joint venture between Raj WestPower Ltd (RWPL) and Rajasthan State Mines and Minerals Ltd (RSMML).
RWPL is a wholly-owned subsidiary of JSW Energy.
In a regulatory filing, JSW Energy said BLMCL has received "environmental clearance from the Ministry of Environment, Forests & Climate Change (MoEFCC) to increase the mining capacity of its Kapurdi Lignite Mines from 3.75 MTPA to 7 MTPA for 4 years".
Kapurdi Lignite Mines is located in Rajasthan.
In May 2006, the Rajasthan government and RWPL had entered into an implementation agreement for lignite mining-cum-thermal power plants with associated facilities for 1,080 MW generation capacity. The power plants would be fired by lignite from Kapurdi and Jalipa mines.
BLMCL, where RWPL holds a 49 per cent stake, to develop, operate and extract lignite from these two mines. Besides, the entity has an exclusive pact with RWPL to supply lignite to its power project for 30 years.
