'''Udupi Power Plant''' is a coal based thermal power station in [[Karnataka]], [[India]], established in 2008. It is located to the north of [[Mangalore]], west of [[Belmannu]], and just to the northeast of [[Padubidri]] in the village of [[Yellur, Udupi|Yellur]], [[Udupi district]], close to the [[Shambavi River]], roughly 7 or 8&nbsp;km from the coast from where the imported coal for the power plant is transported to plant through rail line.<br />
<br />
The power station caused controversy as it was built within [[Kudremukh National Park]] and caused protests.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.jacses.org/sdap/nagarjuna/appendix3.pdf|title=Note on the objections to the Nagarjuna power plant in Udupi District|publisher=Jacses.org|access-date=28 April 2012}}</ref><br />

The plant is operated by Udupi Power Corporation Limited which is a subsidiary of [[Lanco Infratech]].

In August 2014, [[Lanco Infratech]] has agreed to sell this power plant to [[Adani Power]] for Rupees 6,000 Crores. The deal finally concluded in April, 2015.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.thehindu.com/business/Industry/lanco-sells-udupi-plant-to-adani-for-rs6000-cr/article6313857.ece|title=Lanco sells Udupi plant to Adani for Rs.6,000 cr|first=Lalatendu|last=Mishra|date=13 August 2014|via=www.thehindu.com}}</ref><ref>{{cite news| url=http://www.btvin.com/videos/watch/8397/adani-to-buy-lanco's-udupi-plant| title= Adani To Buy Lanco's Udupi Plant| publisher= [[Bloomberg TV India]]}}</ref><br />
