Keralam Chief Minister V.D. Satheesan announced that the state will soon sign a power purchase agreement (PPA) for low-cost electricity from the Sinnar thermal power project in Maharashtra, expected to commence in March 2027. The supply will be at ₹5.18 per unit, with the government aiming to increase the supply to 1,000 MW. Originally, the state had expected the supply to start in January 2027. Meanwhile, Satheesan clarified that no agreement was signed with the private GNA platform for power purchase, refuting claims of withdrawal from a non-existent deal. He attributed the power crisis to inadequate planning by the previous government and a rise in demand.
