Hazira’s Energy: 155MW Gas-Based Combined Cycle Project

Hazira’s Energy, in the pursuit of sustainable energy, Hazira unfolds its ambitious plan with the establishment of a 155MW gas-based combined cycle power plant. Executed through the specialized entity Bhander Power Limited (BPL), this project signifies a crucial step towards cleaner, more efficient energy generation.

Energizing the Future:

The heart of the initiative lies in the setup of a 500 MW natural gas-based combined cycle power plant, strategically executed in two phases. The initial phase, a formidable 155 MW, is a testament to Hazira’s Energy commitment to progressive, eco-conscious energy solutions. Essential inputs, such as natural gas from Essar Steel Limited (ESTL) and water sourced from the Tapi River, form the backbone of this dynamic power plant.

Strategic Collaboration:

BPL and ESTL solidify their commitment through a Power Purchase Agreement, outlining the supply of power from BPL to ESTL. This collaboration ensures a seamless energy flow and underscores the project’s economic viability.

Green Impact and Emission Reduction:

A distinctive feature of this initiative is its significant contribution to environmental sustainability. By sidestepping the need to purchase power from coal/lignite-based plants in the Western grid of India, the project actively diminishes greenhouse gas emissions. This strategic move aligns with global efforts to reduce carbon footprints and foster a cleaner, greener energy landscape.

Sustainable Development Milestones:

The project stands as a beacon of sustainable development, addressing key indicators outlined by the Ministry of Environment and Forests, Govt. of India.
