Reliance Power may shift Dadri plant to AP: report

Reliance Power is considering shifting the site of its planned gas-based power plant to coastal Andhra Pradesh to save on costs, the Economic Times reported, citing an unnamed company official.

The company had initially proposed to build the 7,480 MW plant at Dadri in Uttar Pradesh.

"Since land is still an issue at Dadri and there is some litigation, we have to look at alternative sites and keep costs in mind," the newspaper quoted the official as saying.

Buying fuel in the gas-producing Andhra Pradesh would mean lower transportation costs for the company, the paper said on Thursday.

A Reliance Power spokesman said he could not immediately comment on the report.

Group firm Reliance Natural Resources had lost a case last week to buy gas at half the government-set rate, as the Supreme Court ruled the state pricing was binding on all.
