Bharat Heavy Electricals (BHEL) has successfully commissioned the third 250 MW Advanced Class Gas Turbine at the 1,500 MW Pragati-III Combined Cycle Power Plant, coming up at Bawana in New Delhi. With this, a total of 1,000 MW is now available for feeding power to the grid from this station. Significantly, the full load operation of the unit has been achieved within a day of unit getting synchronized. With this, BHEL has commissioned 2,250 MW in the first quarter of the current fiscal (2012-13).
BHEL had won the turnkey contract for setting up the Gas Turbine-based CCPP against International Competitive Bidding (ICB) from Pragati Power Corporation (PPCL). BHEL has earlier set up on turnkey basis, the 330 MW Pragati CCPP in Delhi, which has been performing exceedingly well since commissioning.
BHEL's scope of work in the present project envisages design, engineering, manufacture, supply, erection and commissioning of four Frame 9FA Gas Turbine Generator sets, two Steam Turbine Generator sets and four Heat Recovery Steam Generators with state-of-the-art Controls and Instrumentation (C&I), associated auxiliaries and balance of plant, in addition to complete civil works and spares.
