Bharat Heavy Electricals Limited (BHEL) has secured a Rs.6,400 Million repeat order from Adhunik Power and Natural Resources Limited (APNRL) for the main plant package of the second new-rating unit of 270 MW at its upcoming Thermal Power Project (TPP) in Jharkhand.
BHEL's scope of work in the present contract envisages design, engineering, manufacture, supply, erection and commissioning of Steam Turbine, Generator and Boiler, along with associated Auxiliaries and Electricals, besides Controls & Instrumentation (C&I) and Electrostatic Precipitators (ESPs).
The Turbine Generator and Boiler will be manufactured at the company’s Haridwar and Trichy plants respectively, and the C&I system will be supplied by BHEL’s Electronics Division, Bangalore. The company’s Hyderabad plant will manufacture the Coal Mills and Boiler Feed Pumps, while the Electricals will be supplied by BHEL's Bhopal and Jhansi plants. BHEL's Ranipet plant will manufacture and supply the ESPs.
The order for the first 270 MW unit of the same project has also earlier been placed on BHEL by APNRL. This comes close on the heels of an order for a 2x600 MW thermal power plant of Jindal India Thermal Power Limited (JITPL).
BHEL has fully established state-of-the-art technology for the manufacture of thermal sets up to 1,000 MW rating. The company has also introduced new rating thermal sets of 270 MW, 525 MW and 600 MW, in addition to 660 MW and 800 MW thermal sets with supercritical parameters to meet customer demand. |
