Reliance Power Ltd, promoted by Reliance Anil Dhirubhai Ambani Group, has proposed to set up a 4,000 Megawatt pithead power plant in Sidhi district of Madhya Pradesh.

The company has also planned to set up a cement plant somewhere in the Satna region, where limestone is in abundance.

“The company had signed a deal with the state government for both the projects and we are in process of extending all possible support,” a senior government official told Business Standard.

The project will be in addition to the Ultra Mega Power Plant proposed in Sasan. The newly planned power project will supply coal ash to the proposed cement plant.
