Ramagundam plant is world’s best
For nearly four decades, this plant has been an essential power provider
KARIMNAGAR: The National Thermal Power Corporation’s super thermal power station at Ramagundam has been adjudged the world’s best in 2015 in the category of coal fired electricity generation, by a US-based publication, Power.
The 130-year-old publication is considered to be the definitive information source for the power generation market.
“For nearly four decades, this plant has been an essential power provider as it added capacity over the years. Even as the plant ages, it has been setting new performance records,” Power said in its report.
Reacting to this, Ramagundam ED P. K. Mohapatra said, “The vintage power station has always been a consistent performer. What distinguishes NTPC-Ramagundam from others is its adoption of new technology, taking care of the environment.”
