 INDIA AIMING EMISSION REDUCTION IN POWER SECTOR
In continuing efforts to safeguard the environment and reduce emissions from
power sector, India has made the following commitments in COP 21:

 India intends to reduce the emissions intensity of its GDP by 33 to 35 % by

2030 from 2005 level.
 To achieve about 40 percent cumulative electric power installed capacity
from non-fossil fuel based energy resources by 2030 with the help of
transfer of technology and low cost international finance.
 Introducing new, more efficient and cleaner technologies in thermal power
generation
 Further, to reduce emissions from Thermal Power Stations, Ministry of
Environment, Forest and Climate Change(MoEF&CC) has also issued new
environmental norms in December 2015 regarding Suspended Particulate
matter (SPM), SOx, NOx, Mercury. Norms for specific water consumption by
Thermal Power Stations have also been notified to conserve water.
 The present installed capacity of coal based thermal power plants is
1,87,252 MW as on 30.09.2016 and around 70000 MW is under
construction. The impact of the environmental norms on thermal power
generation is under study

 Road Ahead for Thermal Generation Planning
(based on NEP and 19th EPS report of CEA)
 With 56,400 MW of coal based capacity expected between 2017-22 along
with the committed capacity of 38,040 MW from Hydro, Nuclear and Gas,
there may not be any further requirement of additional capacity during
2017-22.Further,for 2022-27, capacity addition requirement will be
assessed based on Mid term Review of Demand.
 Compliance of New Environmental norms before 2022- Technical, Financial
and regulatory issues
 The Plant load factor of the coal based power plants may vary between
50% to 60% depending upon variation in Electricity Demand and
achievement in capacity addition from conventional and Renewable
Energy Sources.
 Total coal requirement may be around 730-800 MT in 2021-22
 Road Ahead for Thermal Generation Planning
 Renewable Energy Sources to contribute around 20% of the Total
Energy Requirement by 2021-22.
 Share of Non-fossil fuel installed capacity to increase to 47% by
March,2022.
 Coal power plants need to have enhanced ramping capability
 Minimum technical limit for Coal power plants may have to be revised
downward.
 Gas and Hydro Power Plants need to play a major role in meeting the
ramping & balancing requirement
Indo-Japan Cooperation

For Efficiency and Environmental Improvement of Coal

Fired Stations
 MoU between CEA and JCOAL
1st MOU between CEA and JCOAL for Pre-Prinary Study for Efficiency and
Environment Improvement of Coal Fired Power Plants was signed on
30.4.2010.

The 2nd MoU between CEA and JCOAL was signed on 11.06.2012 for
carrying out detail diagnostic study for energy efficiency oriented R&M
activities in thermal power units.

The 3rd MoU between CEA and JCOAL on Japan - India Cooperation for
Project on Efficiency and Environmental Improvement for Sustainable,
Stable and Low-carbon Supply of Electricity has been signed on
22.01.2016.
 Highlights of the MoU Works

 Joint identification of relevant issues such as condition based monitoring

(predictive/risk based maintenance) of USC/SC units.
 Study on adoption of available technologies to meet new environment standards
and the economic viability of using such technologies in existing plants on Indian
coal. The study in progress.
 Study to explore the feasibility of replacement of old inefficient small size units by
new units based SC/USC technologies atleast at one site.
 Conductance of RLA and CA studies by JCOAL in One (1) 210 MW coal based unit of
thermal power station and submission of report.
 Consideration of financial viability and provide advice and support for the concerned
utility to utilize finance schemes for implementation
 Jointly organize and conduct CCT Transfer Program in Japan.
 Jointly organize and conduct an annual workshop in India.
 Achievement Under 3rd Phase MoU
1. Environmental Study through combustion test of Indian coal
2. Joint Feasibility Study on Replacement of Thermal Power Station to the
latest USC Plant with Comprehensive Environmental Measures
3. Full-fledge diagnosis and other available and effective measures
including Residual Life Assessment (RLA) and Condition Assessment (CA)
Study.
4. CCT Training Progrmme
5. Workshop
 Works taken Up for 2017-18 Under CEA-JCOAL
co-operation
 Feasibility Study for application of DeNox Catalyst for High Ash Flue
gas treatment at Power Plant of TATA.
 Test Protocol for SCR Pilot Test at Sipat TPS of NTPC.
Flexibilisation study of thermal power station at Vidhyachal TPS of
NTPC.
Study on O&M enhancement of existing TPS at Durgapur Steel TPS of
DVC.
Worshop and Study tour for capacity building and knowledge transfer.
 Future Co-operation Area
Replacement of old thermal generating unit by Ultra Super Critical (USC)
unit
Indian Power Sector specially coal fired thermal generating units are hard
pressed to comply new environmental norm after MoEF notification of
December 2015. Japan has more than 30 years of operating experience of
DeSox and DeNox equipments and also have manufacturing capabilities of
these equipment, so collaboration in Air Quality Control Systems to meet
emission norms.
Government of India has ambitious target of adding 175 GW of renewal
capacity addition by 2022. It will affect the operation of coal fired generation
due to intermittent nature of renewal generation. Flexible operation of coal
based thermal power station may be one of the future area of co-operation.
 Future Co-operation Area
R&D Collaboration in the field of thermal generation between India
and Japan.
Pre-feasibility study on IGCC & IGFC Technology in India taken into
account the benefits, viability, suitability of India Coal, cost of
construction, cost of power and environmental benefits et
Cooperation in fuel management practices like silo storage and real
time coal sampling & analysis
Optimisation of land use in thermal plant construction
Sharing of O&M and safety related best practices
