The company on Tuesday indicated it would be in a position to commission four projects with total generation capacity of 5,000 Mw by December 2012.

These projects include Rosa II, Butibori in Maharashtra, Samalkot in Andhra Pradesh and Sasan in Madhya Pradesh.

J P Chalasani, chief executive officer, said the Sasan coal mine is expected to begin production next September, ahead of the first unit of the Sasan ultra mega power project in December 2012. The mine would ramp up coal production to peak 20 million tonnes by 2014-15.

Chalsani said “Our Rosa plant continues to be stable, reconfirming our strong operational capabilities. Also, our under-construction projects are progressing satisfactorily and we are well on track to become a 5,000 Mw company by 2012.”

He said the company has tied up loans of Rs 8,000 with EXIM Bank to finance its new projects in Sasan, Samalkot and its solar PV projects, which will be commissioned by March 2012.
