Regulation of coal supply to power plants that have more than 15 days of fuel stock will free up around 1.77 lakh tonnes of coal from 26 stations, said the power ministry.
Power Secretary Alok Kumar on Sunday reviewed the report of the core management team (CMT) to ensure daily close monitoring of coal stock position at thermal power plants (TPPs), the power ministry said in a statement.
CMT comprises representatives from the power ministry, Central Electricity Authority (CEA), Coal India Ltd (CIL) and Railways.
During the meeting, some facts emerged which will ease out the coal stock position at TPPs and will ensure uninterrupted power supply.
