Bakreswar Thermal Power Plant, WB, 5 x 210 MW Coal Fired
Bakreswar Thermal Power Project, under The West Bengal Power Development Corporation Limited, is one of the most reliable and prestigious coal-fired power plants in West Bengal and in India as well. In two stages the total capacity of the plant is (05 X 210)MW. Funded by the Overseas Economic Co-Operation Fund(OECF) of Japan Govt. - subsequently costituted as Japan Bank for International Co-operation (JBIC) - this project is one of the first Fast Track projects to be successfully completed within scheduled time frame.
BkTPP started operations in 2001 with three units of 210 MW each. A pond was created close to the rivers for collection of fly-ash generated from the power plant. It was then estimated that the pond would last 15 years before getting completely filled with fly-ash. In 2008, two more units of 210 MW each were added to BkTPP. However, no additional facility was created for collection of fly-ash from the new units.
