According to sources, Adani Power will set up a 2,500 MW thermal power plant in Odisha from "coal reject", or residues.

With the development, Adani Enterprises is set to emerge as the largest private coal miner with access to produce coal of up to 90 MT.

In 2010, a consortium led by Adani Enterprises was awarded what is called the mine developer & operator (MDO) contract by UCM Coal.

Adani Group’s flagship company Adani Enterprise has won rights to develop and operate the Chendipada coal block in Orissa.

Adani Enterprises said it has bagged the rights to develop a coal block in Orissa, which has estimated reserves of 1.6 billion tonnes.
