28 Jun 2016 Evaluate

Bharat Heavy Electricals (BHEL) has successfully commissioned two units of 14 MW each at Salma Hydro Electric Project (HEP) in Afghanistan. This project has been funded under Government of India’s grant to Government of Afghanistan. In execution of the Salma hydro project, the company faced numerous challenges but it successfully synchronized both the units well within the targets set out by Ministry of External Affairs.

In recognition of BHEL’s contribution towards setting up of the project, the company was honoured with an appreciation shield by the Union Minister of External Affairs, Sushma Swaraj and the Union Minister of Water Resources, River Development and Ganga Rejuvenation, Sushri Uma Bharati.

The company has recently commissioned another 195 MW thermal unit in Bihar. This is the second 195 MW unit to be commissioned by BHEL at the 2x195 MW Muzaffarpur Thermal Power Station (TPS) Stage-II of Kanti Bijlee Utpadan Nigam (KBUNL), a joint venture of NTPC and BSPGCL, in Bihar.
