Gencos with captive coal may have to sign PPAs to sell power [1]

Merchant power plants based on captive coal might soon feel the pressure to enter into power purchase agreements (PPAs) for selling electricity as states return to market for power procurement through the tariff bidding route.

Companies such as Jindal Power, which are selling cheaper power generated from captive coal in the free market, have so far dodged compliance with the coal ministry's directive to sign PPAs by citing lack of tender for power purchase by states.
