Power producers oppose pooling of gas with RLNG [1]

Major power producers in the private and public sector, including Tata Power, NTPC, Torrent Power and Mahagenco, have opposed the proposal floated by the Association of Power Producers (APP) to pool domestic gas with RLNG (regasified liquefied natural gas). They have opposed the move on the ground that this would lead to higher tariffs.

In its submission to the Central Electricity Authority (CEA) on the gas pooling issue, Tata Power said that its Trombay power station was allocated 1.5 million metric standard cubic metres per day (mmscmd) when ONGC flaring first started.
