Thermal Power Plant: Carbon emission to

carbon assimilation
• Indian National Electricity
grid has Capacity of
370GW.

• Thermal Power plant

contribute 230 GW.

• These thermal power

plant are the major
contributor of
greenhouse gas.
Generation
next?
• Greenish grid(A grid with lesser emitted carbon)…A concept…..
• Economic Emission Based Dispatch.
• Load dispatch to different power plant in order of merit of emission.
 • Multi-objective minimization.

• Minimizing Fuel cost & Emission Cost.

Total cost TC can be calculated
• TC= Min(Objective Function) =Weightage*Cost of
generation+(1- weightage)*cost of emission
Implementation
to achieve the • Scheduling of power plant in the grid can be given by
Green grid minimization total function rather than only cost.

• SLDC can schedule not on merit order of cost but of both

cost & emission. Means a plant with less emission should
be given a priority for generating maximum.
Thank You

I will be happy to be in touch for any

quarry…….
