Thermax has won a repeat order worth Rs 351 crore from a leading African industrial major. The new order is also for supplying a captive power project for one of the conglomerate’s cement plants. The scope of work includes system design, manufacture, supply and supervision of erection and commissioning of the plant.
The order was won against stiff global competition. As a back-to- back repeat order, it further strengthens the company’s credentials to provide lump sum turnkey solutions for African customers.
The power plant, to be commissioned within a time frame of 15-16 months, will utilize the latest generation AFBC (Atmospheric Fluidized Bed Combustion) boilers and high pressure steam cycle to facilitate optimal plant efficiency. Air-cooled condensers will ensure low water utilization by the power plant, which has also been designed to respond to varying load requirements of the cement plant.
