NTPC plant to install FGD unit
Bharat Heavy Electricals Limited (BHEL) has bagged a major Rs.560 crore order to supply and install the Flue Gas Desulphurization (FGD) system at the National Capital Power Station (NCPS) at Dadri in Uttar Pradesh.
The order, secured from National Thermal Power Corp (NTPC) for 2x490MW plant, has increased BHEL’s contracted FGD orders to 13 units.
The Indian power sector has seen an uptick in the ordering of emission control equipment due to the revised and more stringent emission norms notified by the Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change in December 2015.
Reaffirming its commitment towards a better environment, BHEL is fully geared up to tap the huge market potential and ready to manufacture and supply emission control equipment for Indian thermal power plants.
Earlier, BHEL has successfully executed the FGD system at Tata Power’s Trombay Unit 8 in 2008 and is currently installing FGD systems at NTPC’s 3×250 MW Bongaigaon project.
The company has also recently received orders for installation of FGD system at 5×800 MW Yadadri project of TSGENCO and 2×660 MW Maitree project in Bangladesh.
BHEL’s five-decade long experience of installing more than 180 GW power generating equipment in India and abroad, backed by its strong engineering credentials, has prompted various utilities to repose their confidence in the company’s capabilities to make their power plants compliant with the revised emission norms.
While central utilities like NTPC and state utilities of Andhra Pradesh, Telangana and Tamil Nadu have already placed orders with BHEL for supplying emission control equipment, discussions are presently in progress with several other utilities.
BHEL’s plan to indigenously manufacture major equipment for emission control provides a twin boost to the Government’s plan of ‘Make in India’ and it’s Intended National Determined Contributions (INDC) for limiting the carbon footprint of the nation. fii-news.com
