NTPC Augments Capacity of Tanda and Khargone TPP

NTPC has added two power generation units of 660 MW each at Tanda and Khargone thermal power plants (TPP).

 

Unit-1 of 660 MW of Stage-II of Tanda Super Thermal Power Station (two x 660 MW) and Unit-1 of 660 MW of Khargone Super Thermal Power Station (two x 660MW) have been added to the installed capacity of NTPC.

 

The total installed power generation capacity of NTPC and NTPC Group has become 48,645 MW and 57,106 MW respectively. Khargone Super Thermal Power Station in Madhya Pradesh is the country's first ultra-supercritical plant that operates at an efficiency of 41.5 percent.

 

The high efficiency will result in less coal consumption for generating the same amount of electricity vis-a-vis supercritical plants and result in reduction of 3.3 percent carbon dioxide emissions.

 

NTPC currently operates 54 power stations (23 coal, seven combined cycle gas/liquid fuel, two hydro, one wind and 11 solar projects) and has 10 coal and one gas station, owned in joint ventures (JVs) or through subsidiaries taking the total capacity to 57,106 MW. The company aims to achieve total installed capacity of 130 GW by 2032.
