The Government of Tripura has signed a 40‑year Power Purchase Agreement with NHPC, aiming to secure a steady supply of electricity for the state’s future growth.
The Government of Tripura recently entered into a 40‑year Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) with the National Hydroelectric Power Corporation (NHPC). The pact is designed to secure a reliable supply of electricity for the state over the next four decades.
Under the agreement, NHPC will supply power to Tripura at rates agreed upon by both parties. The deal is expected to enhance the state’s energy security and support its planned industrial and infrastructural development.
The partnership reflects Tripura’s commitment to long‑term energy planning. By locking in a long‑term supply, the state can better manage its electricity needs and reduce dependence on short‑term procurement.
Officials say the PPA will also help in achieving broader electrification goals and could provide a stable foundation for future renewable projects in the region.
