Bharat Heavy Electricals Ltd (BHEL) would focus more on manufacturing and supply of super critical boilers in the 13th Five Year Plan period of 2012 -17, according to a senior official from Thiruchirapalli unit of the power equipment manufacturer.
A strategic plan for the year 2012-17 is on the anvil and the company has started discussion on the plans based on annual projection of market needs.
The company has so far bagged seven orders for super critical boilers, which are designed to perform under high pressure, including orders for three 800 MW, one 700 MW and three 660 MW units. It is in talks with the Dainik Bhaskar group, already a customer for its 600 MW boiler, to supply 660 MW super critical boilers, said A V Krishnan, executive director, BHEL Tiruchirapalli complex.
“We are expecting eight to ten projects in super critical boiler supply in the current fiscal year. In fact, in the entire 13th Five Year Plan, we will have more focus on super critical boilers,” said Krishnan.
He further added that the company, in next five to six years, would also be entering into ultra supercritical boilers supply. It is in talks with NTPC and Indira Gandhi Centre for Atomic Research (IGCAR) to develop its first ultra super critical boiler by 2017.
