This plant is designed to capture 20 tons of CO2 every day. This initiative shall pave the way for scaling up CO2 capture technology and \u2018Greening the Coal Power Generation.\u2019<\/p>\n<h4>2\/5<\/h4>\n<p>At the same location, NTPC is also setting up a \u2018Green Hydrogen\u2019 Generation Plant which will use \u2018Proton Exchange Membrane\u2019 Electrolyzers to produce 2 Tons per day of hydrogen. Subsequently, 20 tons per day of captured CO2 and 2 tons per day of hydrogen shall be utilized to produce 10 Tons per day of \u2018Green Methanol\u2019 through a heterogeneous catalytic process.<\/p>\n<h4>3\/5<\/h4>\n<p>The integrated CO2 to Methanol Project has been conceived, designed, engineered, and awarded by the research &amp; development (R&amp;D) wing of NTPC i.e. NTPC Energy Technology Research Alliance (NETRA), and executed by VSTPS Green Chemical Department in coordination with NETRA.<\/p>\n<h4>4\/5<\/h4>\n<p>The total installed capacity of the NTPC is 69,454 MW, NTPC expanding its footprint in new business areas like green hydrogen, waste-to-energy, and e-mobility. India\u2019s largest power producer is also aiming for a 10 percent reduction in net energy intensity by 2032. NTPC has become India\u2019s first energy company to declare its energy compact goals as part of the UN High-level Dialogue on Energy (HLDE).<\/p>\n<h4>5\/5<\/h4>\n<p>Besides power generation, NTPC has diversified into producing energy through cleaner and greener sources such as hydro, wind, and solar and also Green Hydrogen solutions. The power major has also forayed into a variety of business areas including fuel cells, e-mobility, and waste-to-energy.<\/p>\n<p>Source: https:\/\/psuwatch.com\/<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>NTPC captured its first CO2 on August 15 from the flue gas stream of a 500 MW coal-based power plant at Vindhyachal Super Thermal Power Station 1\/5 New Delhi: As part of its commitment towards net-zero by 2070, NTPC Limited, India\u2019s largest integrated power company has captured its first CO2 on August 15, 2022, from [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1401,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[12,15],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1400","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-latest-national-news","category-net-zero-co2-by-2070"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/coalgasifiers.in\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1400","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/coalgasifiers.in\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/coalgasifiers.in\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/coalgasifiers.in\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/coalgasifiers.in\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1400"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/coalgasifiers.in\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1400\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/coalgasifiers.in\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1401"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/coalgasifiers.in\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1400"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/coalgasifiers.in\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1400"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/coalgasifiers.in\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1400"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
