NTPC, Barauni Or Barauni Thermal Power Station is an existing 720 megawatt coal-fired power station earlier owned by Bihar State Electricity Board (BSEB)and currently by NTPC Limited.[1] The power station is located at Barauni in Begusarai district, Bihar, India.[2] Barauni thermal power station in Bihar came into existence in association with the Russian collaboration and came into operation in the year 1962.[3] Bihar Government was mulling over the idea to hand over Barauni Thermal Power Station to NTPC Limited.[4][5] On 17 April 2018, Bihar state cabinet, headed by chief minister Nitish Kumar, gave its nod to handing over of Barauni Thermal Power Station to National Thermal Power Corporation.[6] On 15 May 2018, Bihar Government signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) to hand over the thermal plant to National Thermal Power Corporation for a 33- years lease.[7][8][9] East Central Railway will provide uninterrupted supply of coal to thermal power station.[10] NTPC completed the acquisition of 720 MW Barauni thermal power plant with effect from 15 December 2018.[11][12] The units of Barauni power station will be progressively put under commercial operation.
