The New Indian Express
|November 09, 2024
TAMIL Nadu Power Generation Corporation (TNPGC), despite facing challenges in keeping up the Plant Load Factor (PLF) at its coal-based thermal power plants, is aiming to improve efficiency by raising the PLF that indicates how much of a power plant's full capacity is being utilised.
At a time when green energy is the trend, TNPGC hopes increasing the PLF in its coal plants will lead to more effective operations.
The corporation operates five thermal plants in north Chennai, Mettur and Thoothukudi, with a combined capacity of 4,320 MW. As of March 31, 2024, the average PLF across these plants was 67.14%.
