State-run power generator NTPC Ltd has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Greater Noida Industrial Development Authority (GNIDA) for the supply of ‘Refused Derived Fuel’ (combustible fraction of the municipal solid waste).
As per the MoU, GNIDA would be supplying 20 tonnes per day (TPD) of Refused Derived Fuel (RFD) to NTPC for 10 years.
The initiative would help NTPC to demonstrate an environment-friendly technology to produce green power and chemical from RDF and is planned under the theme of ‘NETRA Green Campus’ where the campus will have 24*7 green power from solar PV, battery storage, H2 and RDF.
Further, the RDF would be fed into an oxy-steam gasification plant to produce syngas which after cleaning would be fired in a gas engine to generate 400 KW of green power. In the second stage of the project, the syngas would be upgraded to produce liquid fuel/ methanol/ hydrogen-H2.
NETRA (NTPC Energy Technology Research Alliance) is the R&D wing of NTPC that focuses itself on developing and demonstrating technologies for carbon capture, green hydrogen and methanol production using CO2 from its power plant.
The company has an installed capacity of 67,907.5 MW, including 13,675 MW through JVs/Subsidiaries, comprising of 49 NTPC stations (23 coal-based stations, 7 gas-based stations, 1 hydro station, 18 renewable projects) and 26 joint venture stations (9 coal-based, 4 gas-based, 8 hydro, 1 small hydro,2 wind and 2 solar PV). About 13,600 MW of its project is at the under-construction stages.
