commissioning before the end of this calendar year.

The investment of over Rs.3,600 crore in the Butibori plant represents one of the biggest

investments made in Maharashtra. The plant is among the most compact-sized thermal

plants in the country with its 600 MW capacity requiring no more than 275 acres of plant

land.

continues to create benchmarks and Butibori demonstrates our expertise and experience in

building large-scale power projects. With Butibori our operating capacity goes up to 1540

MW. The projects under construction are progressing satisfactorily and with our diversified

portfolio of coal, gas, hydro, wind and solar projects, we are well on track to emerge as the

largest integrated private sector power company in India.

The Butibori power plant is environment friendly with zero effluent discharge using the

reverse osmosis method. Also, the entire ash generated by the plant will be utilised by

Reliance group s own cement plant.
