NTPC has signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with National Aluminium Company (NALCO) to supply over 1,200 MW of round-the-clock (RTC) power for the aluminium maker's operations in Odisha. The supply of uninterrupted power will cater to NALCO's expansion of smelter plant capacity in Angul, Odisha.
The supply options would include coal-based thermal, solar, wind, energy storage or any combination of the same. NALCO's partnership with NTPC provides it with the necessary energy infrastructure required for its expanding operations, as a reliable and efficient power supply.
This strategic alliance strengthens NTPC's commitment to sustainable energy solutions, while aligning with the country’s clean energy transition goals, including renewable energy and energy storage technologies.
