All these  projects are located on river Mahanadi. Sindol-1, at Deogaon in  Sambalpur district, will have a capacity of 90 Mw. Similarly, the  installed capacity of Sindol-II, located at Kapasira in Sonepur  district, will also be 90 Mw. The largest among the three, Sindol-III,  located at Godhaneswar in Sonepur district, will have a generation  capacity of 120 Mw. NHPC will have 51 percent stake in the joint venture  company and the remaining 49 percent will be held by OHPC.<\/p>\n<p>Sources said, NHPC has in principle agreed to provide 100 percent  power to be generated from these units to the state grid. However, it is  awaiting the final nod of the Union ministry of power in this regard.  Though OHPC earlier proposed to develop these units on its own, the  government has changed its mind in favour of a joint venture with NHPC.<\/p>\n<p>&#8230; It may be noted, the government planned to develop about nine  hydro-electric projects in the JV mode, out of which three projects  would be set up in the first stage. The identified projects are Middle  Kolab Hydro-Electric Project, Tel Integrated Project, Lower Vansadhara  Project, Balijori Hydro-Electric Project, Khadago Project, Salki  Hydro-Electric Project, Uttei and Roul Integrated Project,  Mahanadi-Brahmani river link and Baramul Hydro-Electric project.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Following is from a report in Business Standard.
