Its second unit has been completely shut down due to a faultElectricity supply from Indian conglomerate Adani Group’s subsidiary Adani Power has been completely halted. The two units of the Adani's coal-based power plant in Godda in the state of Jharkhand, which supplied 1,400 to 1,500 megawatts or MW of electricity daily to Bangladesh, have ceased operations. "Since the boiler of the power plant remains hot, the investigation into the fault cannot commence immediately. So, the Adani authorities cannot specify how long it will take to identify and repair the fault," he told bdnews24.com. In addition, one unit of the 1244-MW Payra thermal power plant in Patuakhali was shut down a few days ago for maintenance.
