GE Power bags ₹142-cr NTPC contract

Thermal Power Plant
GE Power India has won a ₹142 crore contract from NTPC for supply and installation of low NOx combustion system for a 10 GW thermal power plant. This is the first project awarded on such a large scale by NTPC to install this technology at its thermal power plants. The project involves in-combustion system modification of the boiler by staging the combustion air in the furnace to reduce generation of fuel and thermal NOx during the combustion process. The combustion modification technology can help reduce 30-40 percent of NOx emissions from coal-fired boilers up to a level of less than 400 mg/Nm3 at 6 per cent oxygen content in flue gas on dry gas basis at Induced Draft Fan outlet. The projects that have been selected include the Mouda Super Thermal Power Station (STPS), Sipat STPS, Vindhyachal STPS, Simhadri STPS, Vallur Thermal Power Station (TPS) and Talcher STPS. The low NOx combustion system will be delivered in a phased manner over a period of 30 months.
