Background
In March 2018, state power company MAHAGENCO applied for a terms of reference for an 800 MW ultra-supercritical pithead coal plant in Heoti village, Umred tehsil, Nagpur district, Maharashtra. The plant would be located at the site of a reclaimed coal mine. The source of water would be sewage water from Nagpur city. Coal would be sourced from four mines in the Umrer area.[1][2]
In May 2018, the Expert Appraisal Committee considered a site visit report (see minutes, Annexure-A4) and determined the following:
- "EAC deliberated the report of the sub-committee and agreed with the recommendations of the sub-committee. EAC noted that the proposal is at preliminary stage as mining operations are still going on and the specific plan for re-appropriation of dumps, location of facilities, site preparation of activities is still in conceptual stage. Further, EAC noted that minimum distance of 500 m from Amb river shall be maintained while considering the location of facilities for the power project. The proposal may be considered after submission details as recommended by the subcommittee. Accordingly, the proposal is kept in abeyance."[3]
In the government's portal, the proposal was marked as "Delisted" on October 18, 2019.[4]
As of June 2022, the project had not received any known clearances and plans were presumed abandonned.
