AGARTALA: A six-member team from the National Hydroelectric Power Corporation (NHPC) Ltd recently conducted an assessment of the Dumbur Hydroelectric Project in Tripura’s Gomati district to explore its potential revival, officials confirmed on Monday.

The project, which has been Tripura’s sole hydroelectric facility since its commissioning in 1984, suffered significant damage due to the devastating floods in September.

In an effort to restore the plant, the NHPC team visited the site for three days to examine the current state of the facility and assess both the opportunities and challenges involved in bringing it back online, according to Bishwajit Bose, Managing Director of the Tripura State Electricity Corporation (TSECL).

TSECL has appointed NHPC as a consultant for the plant’s revival, as it has been non-operational since the floods.

“We are waiting for the Detailed Project Report (DPR) from NHPC, which will outline the plan for the plant’s revival. Once we receive the DPR, the government will make a final decision on how to restore the plant and explore options for increasing its power generation capacity,” Bose stated.

He further highlighted the strategic importance of the Dumbur Hydroelectric Project for Tripura, especially in helping the state meet its Renewable Power Obligation (RPO).

If revived, the plant has the potential to generate 15 MW of power per day.

Additionally, the hydroelectric project remains a cost-effective option, with a per-unit electricity cost of Rs 3.86, compared to Rs 5.90 per unit for gas-based plants in the region.
