Karnataka state fire and emergency services director K Shiv Kumar had said that the heat blast at KPCL's combined cycle power plant (370 MW) in Yelahanka occurred when engineers were conducting tests in the gas turbine chamber. He said, "The plant had to start its operations in December. They had done tests all day. But when they were doing the test, the pressure was found to vary. Natural gas is supplied to this plant by GAIL India Limited. The incident took place when the engineers of KPCL were doing several investigations to test the turbine. "
