Captive Power Generation

WHRB-Based Power Plant

Our Waste Heat Recovery Boiler (WHRB) based power plant, which operates with an installed capacity of 16 MW, generates electricity by utilizing flue gases from Direct Reduced Iron (DRI) kilns. This process not only produces power but also promotes energy conservation as it does not require additional fuel. By harnessing waste heat, we not only contribute to energy efficiency but also exemplify our commitment to innovative practices in manufacturing. This approach aligns with industry best practices in sustainability.

AFBC-Based Power Plant

In addition, we operate an Atmospheric Fluidized Bed Combustion (AFBC) boiler-based power plant with an installed capacity of 9 MW, which is designed to efficiently combust low-quality fuels, such as Dolochar—a by-product of the sponge iron manufacturing process. This innovative approach not only reduces waste but also maximizes resource utilization, aligning with our commitment to sustainability. By integrating alternative fuel sources into our operations, we enhance our energy diversification strategy.

Benefits of Captive Power Generation

Cost Efficiency: By generating our own power, we can significantly reduce energy costs and better manage our operational expenses. This financial advantage allows us to allocate resources to other critical areas of our business.

Reliability: Having a dedicated power generation facility ensures a continuous and stable power supply, minimizing production downtime. This reliability enhances our operational resilience, allowing us to respond swiftly to market changes.

Sustainability: Utilizing waste heat and low-quality fuels contributes to our environmental initiatives, reducing our carbon footprint. Our commitment to sustainable practices not only benefits the environment but also enhances our brand reputation among eco-conscious consumers. In summary, our captive power generation capabilities are integral to our operational strategy, enabling us to maintain high production levels while optimizing costs and supporting sustainability initiatives. By continually investing in our power generation infrastructure, we position ourselves for long-term success in a rapidly evolving industry.
