Ninety five per cent of the construction work of the Norochcholai Coal Power Plant has been completed and the entire project will be completed by January 2011.

The government of China has provided USD 455mn for this task which was initiated in July 2007. Sri Lanka has allocated Rs.300mn which is the balance amount. (www.info.gov.lk)
