As part of the objective to increase the power generation capacity of the state in accordance with the future needs, the state government has prepared an 800 MW unit on war footing at Sri Damodaram Sanjeevaiah Thermal Power Station (SDSTPS) in Krishnapatnam, Sri Potti Sriramulu, Nellore district. This supercritical unit, the first of its kind in the government sector, will generate 19 million units of electricity per day.

This plant consumes less coal as compared to conventional thermal power plants, which will reduce the negative impact on the environment to some extent. The unit is designed to run on 9,312 tonnes of coal per day.
