Bharat Heavy Electricals (BHEL) has achieved another major breakthrough by bagging a prestigious contract worth Rs 7,800 crore for setting up a 1,320 MW supercritical thermal power project on EPC (Engineering, Procurement & Construction) basis from Tamil Nadu Generation and Distribution Corporation (TANGEDCO).
The order for setting up a 2x660 MW coal-fired supercritical thermal power project at Ennore SEZ in Tamil Nadu state has been won by BHEL against International Competitive Bidding (ICB), which was open to all qualified domestic and foreign bidders and included debt financing by the bidder. This power plant will be constructed on a reclaimed ash pond, calling for specialized civil design, utilizing an otherwise barren land.
With this project, BHEL has now won orders for supply and installation of 35 supercritical boilers and 30 turbines of 660 / 700 / 800 MW ratings. For this tender, BHEL partnered with Power Finance Corporation (PFC), another PSU, by syndicating the financing package in the current competitive environment.
BHEL’s scope of work in the project includes design, engineering, manufacture, supply, construction, erection, testing & commissioning for the EPC Package comprising 2x660 MW supercritical sets. The key equipment for the contract will be manufactured at BHEL’s Trichy, Haridwar, Bhopal, Ranipet, Hyderabad, Bangalore and Jhansi plants, while the company’s Power Sector - Southern Region will be responsible for civil works and erection / commissioning of the equipment.
