The total annual supply of light diesel oil (5,350 KL) was met by oil refineries
located at a distance of 550–600 kms from the power plant. The oil is transported
by rail route twice a year. So for fuel oil transportation by rail, a distance of approximately 1200 km and emission factor as per India Specific Rail Transport Emission
