Energy Conservation in Power Utility
• A power plant produces electrical energy and also consumes a substantial amount of energy in the form of auxiliary consumption required for various plant equipments and services
• Management attitude -The top management of the company is committed to, and has the right attitude towards energy conservation. This is passed on to the the plant staff for ensuring success by Quality Management Systems such as Tata Business Excellence Model and ISO

Techniques developed through O&M Experience
In addition to techniques adopted at design stage various initiatives have been taken over the years to optimise the Auxiliary Power Consumption. These are
– Modification in Operation Strategy to achieve Optimisation
– Installing energy efficient devices– Monitoring of Aux Power Consumption –
continuously improving the levels and accuracy – Knowledge sharing and benchmarking with
other power utilities

VFD for Heater Drip Pump OF 2 UnitsIdea Description
Earlier case :
– Heater drip pump was loaded up to only 40 % of its capacity & header pressure is 20 % higher than the design value with control valve throttled at 69 %.
Present case :
– VFD installed to operate the pump at lower RPM with control valve fully open to meet the flow requirement.
KPI Impact Savings
Rs. 40 Lacs
Investments
Rs. 80 LacsSpecific Power Consumption
Risk Factors
• Required header pressure & control cannot be controlled at lower loads
Risk Mitigation
• Operate control valve at lower loads

VFD for CRP & BFP
CRP - Condensate Recirculation Pump : CRP is provided for recirculation condensate water of feed water tank through CPH (Condensate pre-heater). Its main function is to maintain cold end temperature of CPH. Normally when it operates its control valve is throttled up to 65% indicating power loss in form of throttling losses. Reduction in speed results in increase in control valve opening & thereby energy saving.
Low Pressure Boiler feed Pump : LPBFP is provided for feeding water to LP drum. Normally when it operates at full speed its control valve is 55 % open in full load condition indicating power loss due to throttling. Reduction in speed results in increase in control valve opening & thereby energy saving.

BENEFITS
The main benefit is the electrical energy saved which is ~ 2 MUs per annum. Also the project has pay back period of less than 2 years.
This project can qualify for CDM ( Clean development mechanism) for getting Carbon Credits.
Reduction in throttling of control valves increases its life & reduces corresponding maintenance cost.
Due to soft start of the 415 V motor its high inrush current during starting is prevented. This reduces the motor heating & increases its life.

LIGHTING ENERGY CONSERVATION DONE IN TWO MAIN PARTS
Operation Area-Operation staff – 24 hours
-Light required whenever Operator takes round or when there is an emergency
-Implemented by using Push Button Station at all entrances
Office and Service Area & street
lighting-Staff in General shift and some staff waits back. Not there on Holidays
- Implemented by installation of timers
-Timers give Off command every 1 hour after office timing
