NTPC Bongaigaon commenced its commercial pond ash evacuation which is a milestone moment and first of its kind for the power station.
The trail pond ash evacuation was earlier successfully done in December, 2022. The station auctioned 3 lakh metric tons of pond ash through M/s MSTC. The offered quantity was fully auctioned at a price of Rs.64-68.00 PMT in February 2023 for a period of one year.
Pond ash evacuation has been a long challenging target for the station. Karunakar Das, CGM, NTPC Bongaigaon, and the environment monitoring group took great interest to achieve this target from its inception.
