Thermax Ltd, the provider of energy and environment solutions, has received a Rs 321 crore worth contract from a leading African conglomerate to supply a captive power project for one of their cement plants in Africa. The scope of work includes system design, manufacture, supply and supervision of erection and commissioning of the plant.
More importantly, this is a repeat order from the client. “We had initiated the entry of our project business in Africa two years ago. It is encouraging that we have already gained customer trust and begun supporting their power requirements,” said M S Unnikrishnan, MD and CE, Thermax.
The power plant, to be commissioned within a time frame of 15-16 months, will utilise the latest generation atmospheric fluidised bed combustion (AFBC) boilers and high pressure steam cycle to facilitate optimal plant efficiency. State-of-the-art air-cooled condensers will ensure low water utilisation by the power plant, added the Thermax press release.
The Pune-based Thermax offers integrated innovative solutions in the areas of heating, cooling, power, water and waste management, air pollution control and chemicals.
