Tamil Nadu is all set to get another 600 MW of electricity from today.Power generation of 300 MW each from the North Chennai Power Station Stage 2 Unit 1 and the Vallur Thermal power plant Unit 1 was started today, which were shut down for the past few months.

The TANGEDCO is looking to increase the power generation at the North Chennai Power Station Stage 2 Unit 1 to 500 MW and the Vallur Power Plant to 600-700 MW in the next few days.

“On Friday, both the plants will generate about 300 MW each. The State is currently facing a huge deficit. In the coming days, we will be increasing the power generation consistently and try to bridge the demand-supply gap,” senior official said.
