Flexibilisation of Thermal Power Plants for operation on low PLFs
November, 2014
Excellence Enhancement Centre (EEC) and NTPC, EEC set up by Central Electricity Authority under Indo-German Energy (IGEN) program to facilitate performance improvement in Indian power sector have signed an MoU for a joint research project.
January 2014 - August 2014
EEC is going to organize a technical study on Combustion Optimisation- To improve the Performance of Combustion Systems for 200/210 MW units through use of latest technologies.
June 2013 - August 2014
Many of the existing power plants are operating with high level of specific water consumption. Water is increasingly becoming a premium commodity in terms of cost and availability. There is both need and scope of reducing water consumption especially in water scarce areas.
Condenser performance is highly crucial for efficient operation of the power plant as major share of heat rejection takes place here. The study proposes to carry out unit specific studies at two power stations to identify methodology for on line monitoring of condenser parameters to evaluate its thermal and physical performance in an economical way.
August 2013 - August 2014
The Excellence Enhancement prepares a documentation of a power plant, according to best practises in Germany and India. This documentation will serve as a recommendation for all existing and future power plants in India, in respect of construction, operation, maintenance, and management.
