Panipat Thermal Power Station (PTPS) has a total installed generation capacity of 1360 MW comprising of four Units of 110 MW each , two Units of 210 MW each and two Units of 250 MW each. As all the balance of plant facilities viz. Coal Handling Plant, Ash Handling Plant, Cooling towers, C.W. System are separate for 4x110 MW Unit 1 to 4 and are completely independent from Units 5 to 8. Keeping this in view and in order to improve the performance of the Plant and to have a better control, a need was felt to bifurcate PTPS into two Thermal Power Station i.e. PTPS-1, comprising of 4x110MW Units 1 to 4 and PTPS-2 comprising of 210MW /250MW Units 5 to 8.In this regard the Board of Directors in its 54th meeting held on 29.03.07, approved the proposal of bifurcation of Panipat Thermal Power Station, Panipat into two Thermal Power Stations i.e. PTPS-1, comprising of 4x110MW Units I to IV and PTPS-2 comprising of 210MW / 250MW Units V to VIII. The matter was subsequently taken up with Central Electricity Authority (CEA), New Delhi for according approval of Government of India (Ministry of Power) regarding bifurcation of PTPS. CEA, New Delhi vide letter dated 16.10.07 have conveyed their acceptance to HPGCL proposal of bifurcation of Panipat Thermal Power Station into two Thermal Power Stations namely PTPS-1 and PTPS-2.
Salient Aspects of PTPS-1
In order to improve the performance of all the 4X110 MW Units of PTPS-1, which are quite old and of obsolete technology, the Renovation & Modernisation of these units have been started with the following objectives:
To extend the life of the Units by 15 to 20 years
To restore original rated capacity of the units. (Up rating of capacity from 110MW to 117.8 MW for units 3 & 4)
To improve Plant availability/load factor.
To enhance operational efficiency and safety
To remove ash pollution and to meet up environmental standards.
The R&M of Unit-1 & 2 has already been done by M/s BHEL which are now running at full capacity of 110 MW. The process of R&M of the Units 3 &4 is under consideration and shall be carried out shortly. With the completion of R&M, these old Units are expected to generate maximum cost effective electricity for the State of Haryana.
