NTPC plans new plants at old sites
New delhi. NTPC, the state-owned largest power producer in the country, has plans to build new units at existing plant sites and phase out the old ones.
The government wants to move away from modernisation of old power plants and instead encourage investment in new and efficient capacity.
Union Power Minister Piyush Goyal said earlier this week the government did not favour modernisation because the plants were not efficient. “We should move to supercritical and ultra-supercritical technology,” he told reporters.
