Adani Power Ltd., India's largest private sector thermal power generator, has received a Letter of Award (LoA) from MP Power Management Company Ltd. (MPPMCL) for supply of power from a new 800 MW Ultra-supercritical thermal power plant to be developed in Anuppur district of Madhya Pradesh. The announcement was made on August 30, 2025.

Project Details and Investment

The company will invest approximately INR 10,500 crore towards setting up the plant and related infrastructure. Adani Power emerged as one of the lowest bidders in a highly competitive bidding process conducted by Madhya Pradesh, with a final tariff of INR 5.838 per KWh. The project will be developed under the Design, Build, Finance, Own, and Operate (DBFOO) model.

The unit is scheduled to be commissioned within 54 months of the appointed date. As part of the contract, Adani Power will supply power from the new 800 MW Ultra-supercritical thermal power unit to MP Discom.

Employment Generation and Coal Linkage

The project is expected to generate direct and indirect employment of approximately 6,000 to 7,000 personnel during the construction phase. Once operational, the plant will employ around 1,000 personnel. The coal linkage for the power plant has been allocated under the SHAKTI Policy of Government of India to the state of Madhya Pradesh. The company expects to execute the Power Supply Agreement (PSA) in due course with the State Discom.

Strategic Importance and Recent Orders

According to SB Khyalia, Chief Executive Officer of Adani Power, the Anuppur plant will play a pivotal role in ensuring reliable, affordable, and competitively priced power for households and businesses, strengthening India's and Madhya Pradesh's energy security. The project will help Madhya Pradesh meet its ever-growing electricity demand owing to increased industrialization and urbanization.

This represents the fourth major power supply order received by Adani Power in the last 12 months. In September 2024, the company, along with Adani Green Energy, received the Letter of Intent (LoI) for a composite 6,600 MW power supply order from Maharashtra state, comprising 5,000 MW solar and 1,600 MW thermal capacity.

In May 2025, Adani Power received the LoA from the Uttar Pradesh government for supply of 1,600 MW power from a greenfield plant in the state. Most recently, in August 2025, the company received the LoA from the Bihar government for supply of 2,400 MW of power from a new power plant to be set up in that state.

Company's Vision and Commitment

Khyalia emphasized that as India's power demand continues to rise, driven by rapid economic growth, especially in the base load power sector, it is imperative to invest in robust energy infrastructure to meet the nation's growing needs. He stated that Adani Power remains committed to sustainably securing India's energy future by expanding capacity and embracing advanced technologies.

The company positions itself as a key player in addressing India's increasing power requirements through the development of advanced thermal power generation facilities across multiple states.
