Update on coal procurement: Two more shipments expected in Jan.

 

Minister of Power & Energy Kanchana Wijesekera says 10 of the 33 coal cargos required for the Norochcholai Coal Power Plant have been unloaded thus far.

Meanwhile, two more cargos are scheduled to arrive before the end of January and seven cargos each in February, March and April.

Taking to his Twitter handle, the lawmaker noted that insufficient cash flow and delays in financing have made it challenging to secure cargo on time and are delaying the process.
