Thermal Plant Cooperation conjointly constructing a Thermal Power plant in
Vallur which constitutes three units producing 500 MW each. As of now two units
have started producing the electricity. A new plant with two units producing
600 MW each in North Chennai has been in progress. These two thermal plants
will serve the electricity for Chennai residents.

of Thervoy Kandigai, Korattur, Tandayarpet, Alamadi, Panchetti, and Pulianthope
