BHEL secures major order for Steam Generator Boiler island package for 2x660 MW Raghunathpur TPS in West Bengal

New Delhi, February 13: Bharat Heavy Electricals Limited (BHEL) has secured a significant order for installing the Steam Generator (Boiler) island package based on supercritical technology at the 2x660 MW Raghunathpur Thermal Power Station (TPS) Phase-II, in Purulia district, West Bengal. The order has been placed on BHEL by Damodar Valley Corporation (DVC) under International Competitive Bidding (ICB). Notably, BHEL is already executing the Turbine & Generator package of this supercritical project.

BHEL’s scope of work in the project encompasses design, engineering, manufacturing, supply, erection, testing and commissioning of the Steam Generator Island Package, and associated auxiliaries along with electrical, civil and structural works. The scope also includes the supply of highly efficient equipment for SOx emission control.

The company has installed over 75% of DVC’s coal-based power generation capacity across the country, marking decades of successful partnership. Significantly, earlier this year, BHEL had also won another order under ICB, for setting up the 2x800 MW Koderma supercritical thermal power project on EPC basis.

As India’s foremost power equipment manufacturer, with over 1,70,000 MW of utility power capacity installed across the country, BHEL continues to play a pivotal role in bolstering India’s energy security and supporting the vision of self-reliance in the power sector.
