Kudankulam plant producing 400 MWe.

The Kudankulam Nuclear Power Project (KKNPP) Site Director R.S. Sundar rubbished reports of the power plant not having generated any amount of electricity. He said that the plant produced around 300 million units since October this year.

Stating that certain sections of people were spreading canards of that the power plant did not generate power since it began operations, he said that the data recorded by the Southern Region Load Despatch Centre would reveal the factual scenario.

Of the power generated so far, 54 per cent had gone to Tamil Nadu. The rest had been distributed to Puducherry and the neighbouring States. As of now, KKNPP was producing 400 MWe and generation would be increased to 750 MWe by January, he added.
