NTPC has started capturing carbon dioxide (CO2) from the flue gas stream at its thermal plant in Vindhyachal. As part of its commitment towards Net Zero by 2070, the company has captured its first CO2 on August 15, 2022 from flue gas stream of 500 MW coal based power plant (Unit-13) at Vindhyachal Super Thermal Power Station (VSTPS).
This plant is designed to capture 20 tonnes of CO2 every day. This initiative will pave the way for scaling up CO2 capture technology and greening the coal power generation. At the same location, NTPC is also setting up a green hydrogen generation plant, which will use Proton Exchange Membrane Electrolyzers to produce 2 tonnes per day of hydrogen.
NTPC is the largest power utility company in India and has presence in Coal, Gas, Solar PV, Hydro and Wind Power Generation and Coal Mining.
