          Karthik Madhavan
            SCMHRD, Pune.
Facts
• Convert energy rich         • Other sources - landfill
  fuel into electricity and     gas and biogases
  heat.                       • Electricity consumes
• Accounts for over 65%         80% of the coal
  of India's generated          produce.
  electricity.                • Coal and lignite - 57%
• Fuels - coal, natural         of installed capacity.
  gas, petroleum              • Low calorific value and
  products, agricultural        high ash content of
  waste and domestic            Indian coal.
  trash / waste.
Current Status
• Installed capacity of Thermal Power in India is
  1,41,327.18 MW which is 66.99%.
• Coal Based Thermal Power is 1,20,103.38 MW which
  comes to 57.38%.
• Gas Based Thermal Power is 18,903.05 MW which is
  9.03%.
• Oil Based Thermal Power is 1,199.75 MW which is
  0.57%.
• On average, about 0.7 kg of coal to generate a kWh.
• Indian coal has a GCV of about 4500 Kcal/kg.
• Maharashtra is the largest producer of thermal power
  in the country.
Current Status
Generators            MW               %

State                58,089         41.10

Central              42,094         29.78

Private              41,144         29.11

                                Source: Ministry of Power
Technologies
•   Steam cycle facilities
•   Gas turbines
•   Cogeneration and combined cycle facility
•   Internal combustion
• 91 nos.
Issues
• Maintenance and operating costs are high
• Long time required for erection and putting
  into action
• A large quantity of water is required
• Great difficulty experienced in coal handling
• Presence of troubles due to smoke and heat
  in the plant
• Unavailability of good quality coal
Issues
• Maximum of heat energy lost
• Problem of ash removal
• Thermal efficiency is just about 45%
• Clearances from Ministry of Environment and
  Forests
• Land acquisition
• Site accidents due to process hazards, bad
  plant designs, technical errors, inadequate
  training of personnel employed
• Coal shortage
Recommendations
• Informed decision making
• Clear procedures and standards for
  environmental aspects
• Make energy auditing compulsory to ensure
  optimal power utilization
• Natural air flow and other low power
  demand utilities to beat the power needs
• Ancillary industries to be set up near thermal
  power plants
Thank You!
