Indian Energy restructures Theni Project to Group Captive
Infrastructure India plc, an investment company focused on India's Transport and Energy sectors, is pleased to announce that its wholly owned subsidiary, Indian Energy ("IEL"), has successfully converted its Theni wind farm to a group captive power project, thereby increasing the potential future returns from the project.
The Theni Project is located in Tamil Nadu and has an installed capacity of 16.5 MW. Since commissioning in August 2010, the power generated from the project has been sold to the Tamil Nadu Generation and Distribution Corporation earning Rs. 3.39 per kWh.
Under the new group captive arrangement, Indian Energy is now able to sell the power generated from the project to four industrial customers, earning a gross tariff of Rs. 5.25 per kWh.
