Co-Generation |
Looking at the power deficit the country is facing cogeneration technology seems
to be one of the option left with us. Cogeneration makes sense both from macro
and micro prospective. At the macro level, it allows a part of the financial
burden of the national power utility to be shared by the private sector. At the
micro level, the over all energy bill of users can be reduced, particularly when
there is a simultaneous need for both power and heat at the site and a rational
energy tariff is practiced in the country.
|
Cogeneration is a thermo-dynamically
efficient use of fuel. In separate production of electricity, some energy must
be rejected as waste heat, but in cogeneration this thermal energy is put to
good use. |
On the basis of this approach, financialOn
the basis of this approach, financial position of the mills and the boiling
house requirement (exhaust), The Sonipat Coop. Sugar Mill Sonipat installed the
smallest and most lowest steam pressure cogeneration plant in 2004-05. This
plant was commissioned and synchronized with UHBVNL grid on 30.11.2005 by
replacing its old 1.5 MW power turbine. One 3 MW, 440v, 50HZ, 20 kg steam
pressure was installed during the crushing season 2004-05. When this plant was
commissioned the average electrical load of the plant 1350-1450 KW and after
exporting the power of 700-800 KW, it was 2000-2100 KW. At this load boiling
house consumed all the exhaust steam and mill exported power year wise as under.
Whereas the per unit rate for export was very minimum i.e. Rs. 2.35/- KWH.

But during the last 2-3 crushing
seasons mill increased some electrical load for increasing the efficiency of the
plant i.e. better cane preparations, waste heat recovery system and
strengthening of some machineries. Due to which mill has sufficient exhaust
steam for boiling house. Therefore mill did not run the co-gen plant because of
house requirement and the rate of the bagasse, which was also very high. Sugar
Mill, Sonipat has the highest bagasse sale realization during the year 2011-12
in Haryana Coop. Sector. |
