In the last three months, the company has added three units of 600 MW aggregating 1,800 MW capacity in the state. The scope of work includes design, engineering, manufacture, supply, erection, testing and commissioning of steam turbines, generators and boilers, along with associated auxiliaries and electricals, besides controls and instrumentation and Electrostatic Precipitators (ESPs).

Earlier, BHEL had also executed four units of 250 MW each at Raigarh, which are in operation since 2007. In addition, JPL has entrusted BHEL with setting up another four units of 600 MW each. As of now, the company has contracted 21 sets of 600 MW, out of which thirteen have already been commissioned.

BHEL-supplied thermal sets meet the performance standards notified by CEA. The supplied sets have demonstrated a better operating heat rate resulting in less coal consumption per unit of power produced.
