BHEL wins order from Kahalgaon power plant

Following an international competitive bidding (ICB), Bharat Heavy Electricals Ltd (BHEL) has secured an order for the renovation and modernisation (R&M) of Electrostatic Precipitators (ESP) at Kahalgaon super thermal power plant in Bihar, India. Valued at over Rs.215 Crore, the turnkey order envisages carrying out R&M of ESPs at Kahalgaon STPS, Stage-I (4x210 MW) of NTPC Ltd. The ESPs, originally supplied along with the units by BHEL, have been in successful operation for more than 25 years since the commissioning of the units. Renovation of these ESPs will enable these units to meet the new norms for suspended particulate matter (SPM) emission, recently announced by the Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change (MOEF & CC). Modernisation of the units will facilitate the operation of these units for many more years. BHEL’s scope of work in the contract includes design, engineering, manufacture, supply, dismantling, erection, testing and commissioning of the ESPs to bring down the SPM emission to the stipulated level for all the four units of Kahalgaon STPS, Stage-1. Major equipment for the project will be supplied by BHEL’s units located at Ranipet and Bhopal, while the execution on site will be undertaken by Power Sector Eastern Region. more at : https://www.worldcoal.com/power/08122017/bhel-wins-order-from-kahalgaon-power-plant/
