The renovation and modernisation (R&M) of power plants has become a key focus area in India’s evolving power sector, particularly as the country seeks to balance rising electricity demand with cost efficiency and sustainability. Over […]
Renovation and modernisation (R&M) of power plants is an effective solution to address the challenges of ageing infrastructure, declining efficiency, environmental non-compliance and increasing operational costs, which adversely impact power plant performance. R&M measures revive […]
Despite India’s push towards cleaner energy, thermal power continues to play a major role in the country’s electricity generation mix. As per the Central Electricity Authority (CEA), energy generation from thermal sources accounts for 74.36 […]
Thermal power plants (TPPs) operate under intense thermal, mechanical and chemical stresses, which degrade critical systems and components over time. As India continues to rely heavily on coal-based power, particularly amid growing demand and renewable […]
In recent years, hydropower has gained traction due to its low-cost energy generation. The importance of renovation and modernisation (R&M) in preserving and enhancing this value cannot be understated. Hydropower projects, unlike most generation technologies, […]
Renovation and modernisation (R&M) of ageing power plants is a cost-effective solution compared to adding new capacity to meet increasing power demand while addressing the challenges associated with integrating a significant proportion of non-fossil fuel […]
The renovation and modernisation (R&M) of hydroelectric power plants (HEPs) presents a cost-effective strategy to address declining production levels. Instead of constructing entirely new facilities, R&M offers a more expedient approach, typically yielding positive results […]
Renovation and modernisation (R&M) is a cost-effective solution for enhancing the generation capacity of existing thermal power stations (TPSs) and optimising asset management due to its affordability and swift implementation. Given the capital-intensive nature of […]
Renovation and modernisation (R&M), and life extension (LE) are cost-effective alternatives to improve the generation capacity of thermal power plants (TPPs), especially when asset life is nearing its time. A large number of thermal units, […]
A hydroelectric project (HEP) typically requires renovation and modernisation (R&M) after 30-35 years of operation. R&M is a cost-effective option for maintaining operational capacity after an old HEP reaches the end of its useful life. […]
Renovation and modernisation (R&M) has been recognised as a cost-effective option for obtaining additional generation and better output from existing thermal power units. R&M can improve the performance, safety and reliability of units, help in […]
The renovation and modernisation (R&M) of power plants is a promising solution to upgrade old units in order to increase generation, reduce emissions and enhance flexibility. A centrally sponsored scheme was launched in 1984 for […]
The R&M programme for thermal power plants (TPPs) has been in place for over 35 years now. The R&M of thermal power generating units is undertaken for operating units well equipped with modified and augmented […]
Renovation and modernisation (R&M) of existing hydroelectric plants (HEPs) is a crucial activity that contributes to improving a dam’s generating potential and operational efficiency, cutting operations and maintenance expenses, improving flood control, and prolonging a […]
The renovation and modernisation (R&M) and life extension (LE) programme has been critical to thermal power plant (TPP) operations since its launch in 1984. While its initial objective was to economically increase generation to meet […]
Renovation and modernisation (R&M) of hydroelectric plants (HEPs) gives a new lease of life to operating units by modifying and equipping them with the latest technologies, components and systems with a view to improve their […]
