Larsen & Toubro has commissioned a 384-MW gas-based unit at GMR's 1,200 MW gas-based power plant at Vemagiri, Andhra Pradesh. L&T said the work was completed in 24 months. The steam turbine for this unit was synchronised on December 4 and the gas turbine on August 27. In September 2006, L&T commissioned the first unit of a similar capacity at the same location. Work is also in the advanced stage for the third unit of similar capacity in which a gas turbine is expected to be synchronised soon. This is expected to be done in the next couple of months. The plant incorporates advanced class gas turbines from General Electric and high efficiency steam turbines from Alstom.
