GEPIL to deliver NOx reduction system to NTPC Limited Barauni Thermal Power Plant

GE Power India Limited (GEPIL) has received a 'Notice of Award' to supply a DeNOx system to NTPC Limited for their Barauni Thermal Power Plant (2X250 MW) in Bihar. This project has an order value of INR 12.78 Cr ($1.7 M). GEPIL will set up the combustion modification technology for all the steam generators in Barauni stage-II, Unit 8 and 9 to meet the NOx emission limit of 450 mg/NM3 to comply with the Indian environmental requirements.

Supporting the 'AatmaNirbhar Bharat' initiative of Government of India, all the major components for the project will be manufactured in India. GE's Durgapur facility in West Bengal will supply the pressure parts and other components will also be procured locally from various sub vendors.
