Reportedly, JSW Energy is set to develop a 1,600 MW greenfield thermal power plant in Salboni, West Bengal, marking its largest greenfield project to date.
The project follows a competitive bidding process and includes the signing of a power purchase agreement with the West Bengal government. This initiative represents JSW Energy’s first major investment in eastern India and comes in response to the state’s projected doubling of power demand over the next decade, driven by rapid industrial growth.
