Norochcholai breaks down again

norochcholeiThe Chinese built Norochcholai coal power plant has broken down once again. The plant has been out of service for over 20 times since it was commissioned.
CEB sources say that this time around, the Norochcholai coal power plant would be out of service for about three months.
The CEB has to now purchase the shortfall in the power supply from private power producers at higher rates. Asa result, a unit of power that is usually purchased at Rs. 9.50 has to now be purchased at Rs. 30 per unit.
