BHEL, BGGTS successfully overhaul 104 MW Gas Turbine at Pragati Power Project

20 Jun 2014 Evaluate

Bharat Heavy Electricals (BHEL) and BGGTS (BHEL–GE JV) have successfully completed the overhauling of the 104 MW Gas Turbine Generator Unit–1 of Pragati Power Corporation, Indraprastha, Delhi in record time. The job was awarded to BHEL and BGGTS for the Generator and Gas Turbine respectively for this combined cycle plant at Pragati.

As this particular plant is connected to the city load end, its immediate synchronization with the grid was critical. The Ministry of Power sought BHEL’s help in bringing back the Unit on war footing. In order to meet this challenge, a combined team of BHEL and BGGTS engineers showcased their engineering and servicing capabilities through meticulous planning and executing this job by working round the clock.

The unit was brought to ‘Turning Gear’ on June 16, 2014 and thereafter synchronized after a series of Electrical and C&I (Controls & Instrumentation) test on June 18, 2014. The unit is now contributing 145 MW of power to the grid in the combined cycle mode.
