Prime Minister Narendra Modi is set to inaugurate a series of ambitious projects by the National Thermal Power Corporation (NTPC), collectively valued at Rs 30,023 crore, tomorrow, marking a significant stride towards sustainable development and economic growth.
These projects, as announced by NTPC, encompass a diverse range of initiatives aimed at bolstering India’s power infrastructure while prioritizing environmental conservation and technological innovation. Among the key highlights, PM Modi will dedicate Unit-2 of NTPC’s Telangana Super Thermal Power Project, leveraging ultra-supercritical technology to enhance power generation efficiency while curbing CO2 emissions.
Additionally, the Prime Minister will inaugurate Unit-2 of the North Karanpura Super Thermal Power Project in Jharkhand, showcasing India’s pioneering efforts in adopting supercritical thermal power technology and air-cooled condenser systems to minimize water consumption.
Furthermore, PM Modi will lay the foundation stone for the Singrauli Super Thermal Power Project in Uttar Pradesh, emphasizing India’s commitment to environmental sustainability and cutting-edge technological solutions. The project, with its substantial investment of Rs 17,000 crore, underscores India’s strides towards achieving energy security and reducing greenhouse gas emissions.
Moreover, the inauguration of a fly ash-based lightweight aggregate plant at the Sipat Super Thermal Power Station in Chhattisgarh and the STP Water to Green Hydrogen Plant at NTPC NETRA Campus in Greater Noida will further contribute to environmental conservation and energy efficiency.
Another notable initiative includes the foundation stone laying for the Flue gas CO2 to 4G Ethanol Plant at the Lara Super Thermal Power Station in Chhattisgarh, aimed at synthesizing ethanol from waste flue gas, thereby advancing sustainable fuel solutions and reducing carbon footprints.
Additionally, the inauguration of the seawater to green hydrogen plant at NTPC Simhadri and the fly ash-based FALG Aggregate Plant at the Korba Super Thermal Power Station in Chhattisgarh highlights India’s commitment to harnessing renewable energy sources and promoting eco-friendly building materials.
These groundbreaking projects by NTPC not only signify a monumental leap in India’s power infrastructure but also promise substantial contributions to job creation, community development, and environmental stewardship. With a total investment of Rs 30,023 crore, these initiatives epitomize India’s unwavering resolve to build a greener, more sustainable future for generations to come.
