North Eastern Electric Power Corporation Ltd.
(NEEPCO) Shillong.
North Eastern Electric Power Corporation Ltd.
(NEEPCO) was constituted in 1976 under the
company’s act 1956 with the objective of
developing the power potential of the North
Eastern Region of the country through planned
development of power generation projects which
in turn would effectively promote the development
of the North Eastern Region. Since then
NEEPCO has grown into one of the pioneer
public sectors with an authorised share capital
of Rs. 3500.00Crs. and having an installed
capacity of 1130MW (755 MW hydro & 375 MW
thermal) meets more than 50% of the energy
requirements of the NE Region. The main
objectives of Corporation are to add to the power
generating capacity in the North Eastern Region
by ensuring optimum utilisation of commissioned
generation projects, to generate adequate internal
resources ensuring justifiable return on
investment, to continue sustained efforts to obtain
POWER GENERATION:
During the period from 1st January’ 03 to 31st March ‘ 04, NEEPCO generated 2124 MU from
hydro stations against a target of 2343 MU and
2733 MU from thermal stations against a target
Chapter - 21.6
the receivables from State Electricity Boards /
Departments and to undertake long term feasibility
studies for optimum development of hydro power
resources of the North Eastern Region.
