The Chennai-based Toshiba JSW Power Systems Private Ltd (Toshiba JSW) has been awarded Engineering Procurement and Construction (EPC) contract of a power generation plant project by Uttar Pradesh Rajya Vidyut Utpadan Nigam Ltd (UPRVUNL), a state thermal power utility with present generating capacity of 4933MW.
Under the US$540 million contract Toshiba JSW will carry out EPC of the entire thermal power plant, including civil and boiler island package to be completed within 48 month from the Contract award.
Toshiba JSW will start delivering main equipment from October 2017, and the plant in Aligarh district of Uttar Pradesh State is expected to start its operation in September, 2019.
UPRVUNL’s evaluation reflects the high performance and the reliability of Toshiba’s ultra-supercritical steam turbines and generators, and the company’s capabilities in integrating engineering and manufacturing functions, said the parent group Toshiba Corp of Japan.
Mr. Yoshiaki Inayama, Managing Director of Toshiba JSW said, “We have a long standing relationship with UPRVUNL. Toshiba initially entered the thermal power market by supplying two 500MW subcritical steam turbines and generators at Anpara B thermal power plant, and later cemented our association by securing another order for supplying two units of 660MW supercritical steam turbines and generators package to Meja power plant in Uttar Pradesh.
“We are very honoured to once again work with UPRVUNL for Harduaganj Ultra Supercritical Thermal Power Project to provide ultra supercritical thermal power plant. This takes us a step further in our endeavour to contribute to Indian’s suitable power supply by its endeavour of continued innovations,” Mr Inayama said.
In January 2014, Toshiba Corporation reinforced its thermal power generation business in India by integrating the engineering function of Toshiba India Pvt. Ltd. into the Chennai-based Toshiba JSW Turbine and Generator Pvt. Ltd., a manufacturer of turbines and generators.
The renamed Toshiba JSW Power Systems Pvt Ltd is positioned to provide full EPC solutions for thermal power plants, and is working to expand its business in India and the surrounding region.
Toshiba Group is an undisputed market leader in supercritical steam turbines and generators in the 800MW category in India, having won orders for 10 sets in all: five for Coastal Gujarat Power Limited, a subsidiary of Tata Power Company Limited, for its Mundra UMPP in Gujarat, which are now in successful commercial operation; three for NTPC’s Kudgi Super Thermal Power Project and two for the NTPC’s Darlipali Super Thermal Power Project.
The company has also won an order for two 660MW supercritical steam turbine and generator island packages for Meja Thermal Power Project from Meja Urja Nigam Pvt. Ltd., a joint venture between NTPC and UPRVUNL.
