State-run engineering firm BHEL on Friday said it has commissioned the first renovated 60 MW unit of NHPC’s 180 MW Baira Siul hydro project in Himachal Pradesh. <\/p>\n
Baira Siul is the first hydro station of state-run hydro power giant NHPC to have been taken up for comprehensive Renovation & Modernisation (R&M). <\/p>\n
“BHEL has successfully renovated and modernised one unit of the 3×60 MW Baira Siul Hydro Power in Himachal Pradesh,” a BHEL statement said. <\/p>\n
BHEL had won the order for R&M of three units of the hydro power station located in Chamba district of Himachal Pradesh amidst stiff competitive bidding. <\/p>\n
The R&M of the other two units is under various stages of execution. <\/p>\n
BHEL’s scope in the project comprises design, manufacture, supply, replacement and commissioning of critical parts of turbines and auxiliaries, governors, generators and control and monitoring. <\/p>\n
The R&M of the project will result in restoration of output capacity and improvement in efficiency, in addition to leading to better plant availability and life extension of equipment. <\/p>\n
BHEL is also the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) of these hydro units. <\/p>\n
The company is currently executing hydroelectric projects of more than 6,000 MW, which includes 2,910 MW of projects within the country and 3,224 MW abroad. <\/p>\n
In addition, BHEL is also carrying out comprehensive R&M of more than 699 MW hydro projects across the country.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
