TIRUCHIRAPPALLI: The Rastriya Ispat Nigam Limited (RINL) has placed a turnkey contract with BHEL, for the manufacture and erection of a captive power plant at the Vizag Steel Plant in Andhra Pradesh, RINL sources said.
BHEL should commission the Rs 394 crore power plant within 26 months, the sources said.
It was a repeat order since a captive power plant supplied by the PSU about ten years ago was still going strong at the steel plant.
The current order comprises manufacture of 67.5 mw steam turbine generator, a multi-fuel fired boiler of 330 tonnes per hour capacity and related control and instrumentation packages.
The plant is to be designed for the optimum utilisation of blast furnace gas, a waste product in steel making process. The coal also results in appreciable saving of fossil fuel, they said.
Bhel sources told PTI that while the Tiruchi plant would manufacture the boilers, the steam turbine generator set would be supplied by BHEL, Hyderabad plant. The BHEL's Bangalore plant would design controls and instrumentation packages.
