Thermax Group bags repeat order for captive co-gen power plant

Thermax Group has bagged a repeat order worth Rs. 279 crores. The order from a leading fertilizer company consists of setting up the company’s captive cogeneration (co-gen) plant at Trombay. The project is estimated to be completed in next 24 months.

The co-gen plant will be having capacity of 50MW consisting of GTG, i.e. Gas Turbine Generator with HRSG i.e. Heat Recovery Steam Generator. The plant will be EPC-based. The supply of this plant will include design, engineering, manufacturing, construction and commissioning.

The company is planning to install two units of GTG and HRSG to generate power and steam simultaneously which will help in reducing the energy consumption and the dependence on grid power.
