The present peak power requirement of Indian Railways is around 4000 Mega Watt (MW). Preliminary discussions have been held with Nuclear Power Corporation of India Ltd. (NPCIL) for exploring the possibility of setting up of a nuclear power plant of 1400 MW capacity in Joint Venture with them.
The thermal power plant of 1000 MW capacity being set up in Joint Venture (JV) with NTPC Ltd. is presently under construction and its first unit of 250 MW is likely to be commissioned by 2014 and subsequent units thereafter.
