22. The reported efficiency of Indian power plants is generally lower as compared to efficiency of plants abroad, primarily due to : Poorer condenser vacuum due to hot climatic conditions Higher unburnt carbon losses in boiler due to low grade high ash Indian coal Efficiency is reported on HHV basis of coal (same as the practice followed in USA) as against LHV used elsewhere. Lower Plant Efficiency in India Typical variation due to above = 3.0 to 4.0 % points (Approx.)

26. Efficiency Improvement through Renovation and Modernization A COST EFFECTIVE APPROACH …… CONTINUE GETTING THE BEST OUT OF EXISTING FLEET

27. Improvement in performance parameters – PLF, Availability, heat rate/efficiency, auxiliary power consumption, partial loading & forced outage. Restore derated capacity Extension of economic life. Obsolescence & non availability of spares (eg C&I) Environmental issues/other statutory requirements. Safety requirements. NEED FOR R&M – EXISTING UNITS

28. A large number of 200/250 MW & some 500 MW Units are in operation for more than 15/20 years and have considerable potential for life extension & efficiency improvement POTENTIAL FOR EFFICIENCY INTEGRATED R&M

29. Shift in focus from ‘Generation Maximization to ‘Plant Performance Optimization’ – Older units have many more opportunities to reduce heat rate than newer units. Retirement of very old small size low efficiency units and replacement with higher efficiency units. Use of high end technology solutions for efficiency enhancement to manage rising costs & reduce carbon, foot prints, e.g., Steam flow path modification Steam turbine and boiler upgrades Improved plant control FUTURE APPROACH TOWARDS R&M

30. Additionality in efficiency improvement Efficiency improvement as a result of normal R&M, aims at to minimising losses ( to approach design values) Efficiency improvement through technology intervention/enhanced R&M, targeting efficiency enhancement even beyond design value. FUTURE APPROACH TOWARDS R&M …

31. Parameters For Performance Monitoring • Unit Heat Rate • Unit Auxiliary Power consumption • Unit Specific secondary fuel oil consumption • Unit Specific coal consumption • Plant Load Factor (PLF) • Planned Maintenance, Forced outage and Operating availability
