Amidst stiff competitive bidding, Bharat Heavy Electricals Limited (BHEL) has won an order for emission control equipment from Nabinagar Power Generating Company Limited (NPGCL) – a subsidiary of NTPC Ltd. Valued at about Rs 840 crore, the order involves supply and installation of Flue Gas Desulphurization (FGD) system for control of SOx emissions at the 3x660 MW Nabinagar project of NPGCL in Aurangabad district of Bihar.
BHEL has been a major player in this area for over a decade and was one of the earliest entrants in the Indian market for emission control equipment, having successfully executed FGD system at Tata Power’s Trombay Unit 8 in 2008. With this order, BHEL is presently executing FGD systems for 23 units of NTPC and its JVs.
