India: Jaiprakash Associates plans to build a coal-fired 35MW captive power plant as a part of its proposed US$202m greenfield cement plant in Satna in the state of Madhya Pradesh. The captive power plant will comprise steam turbine generating sets with adequately-sized circulating fluidised-bed combustion (CFBC) boilers with air-cooled condensers.
The total coal requirement for the project is estimated at 0.55Mt/yr, according to an environment impact assessment report on the project. The 1.5Mt/yr clinker and 2Mt/yr cement plant proposed by Jaiprakash Associates will require 30MW of power that will all be sourced from the planned captive power plant.
