'''Bandel Thermal Power Station''' is a coal-based power plant situated on the western bank of [[Hooghly River]] at [[Tribeni, Hooghly|Tribeni]], a neighbourhood in [[Bansberia]], near [[Bandel]], in the [[India]]n state of [[West Bengal]], {{convert|3|km|mi}} off the [[Grand Trunk Road]]/ [[National Highway 19 (India)|NH 19]] (old numbering NH 2). The power plant is operated by the [[West Bengal Power Development Corporation Limited]] (WBPDCL). At the time of its commissioning in 1983, its Unit-5 was first of its kind in Eastern India and fifth in India.
