Comprehensive technical study, assessment service for repurposing (Renovation and Modernization) of 2 × 75 MW Kutch Lignite Thermal Power plant Unit #3 and Unit #4

CEEW has awarded a contract to SMARTLùth for Comprehensive technical study, assessment service for repurposing (Renovation and Modernization) of 2 × 75 MW Kutch Lignite Thermal Power plant Unit #3 and Unit #4.

Objectives are as below:

  1. On-site technical assessment of boiler and turbine systems proposed to be continued, decommissioned, or repurposed at Kutch Lignite Thermal Power Station (KLTPS).
  2. Lead on assessment of the current condition and residual technical life of boiler and turbine assets.
  3. development and application of a boiler–turbine assessment framework, based on site inspections, review of operational and maintenance data, and evaluation of parameters affecting health, residual life, and suitability under different operating and repurposing scenarios.
  4. Lead on evaluating the suitability of existing boiler and turbine systems for potential repurposing applications, including continued operation under flexible, cycling, or part-load regimes
    • de-rating or modified operating configurations; and
    • compatibility with the shortlisted repurposing pathways identified under the project.
  5. Identify key technical constraints, risks, and upgrade or retrofit requirements associated with boiler and turbine systems under shortlisted decommissioning and repurposing pathways, including safety-critical considerations.
  6. Provide indicative inputs on refurbishment, modification, replacement, or retirement requirements, including high-level cost ranges and implementation timelines, based on professional judgment, secondary benchmarks, and available plant information.
