2. INTRODUCTION OF THE PROJECT/BACKGROUND INFORMATION 2.1 Identification of Project and Project Proponent The Singareni Collieries Company Limited (SCCL) is a Government Company jointly owned by the Government of Telangana and Government of India on a 51:49 equity basis. The Singareni coal reserves stretch across 350 km of the Pranahita – Godavari valley of Telangana with a proven geological reserves aggregating to 8791 MT The studies of Geological Survey of India attribute as much as 22207 million tonnes of coal reserves in the Godavari valley coalfield. The inventory covers up to a depth of 1200 meters and it includes reserves proved, indicated as well as inferred. The SCCL has been exploiting coal for more than 127 years the Company had expanded its mining activities in Mancherial, Komaram Bheem Asifabad, Peddapalli, Jayashankar Bhoopalpalli, Bhadradri Kothagudem and Khammam districts of Telangana. The coal produced by SCCL in the Godavari valley coalfield in the year 2016-17 was 61.34 Million tonnes. The targeted production for the year 2017-18 is 66.06 Million tonnes.

SCCL also operating small captive power plants since 1960 and recently SCCL is foraying into large scale power generation. SCCL constructed Non pithead power station of 2x600 MW units located at Pegadapalli village, Jaipur Mandal in Mancherial district of Telangana which is commisioned in the year 2016.

The Environmental Clearance was accorded by Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change vide Lr. No. J-13012/88/2008-IA.II (T), dated 27.12.2010 and Consent for Establishment (CFE) under Air (Prevention & Control of Pollution) Act and Water (Prevention & Control of Pollution) Act by State Pollution Control Board vide Order No. 64/PCB/CFE/RO- NZB/HO/2010-818, dated 16.06.2011 and Consent For Operation (CFO) under Air (Prevention & Control of Pollution) Act and Water (Prevention & Control of Pollution) Act by State Pollution Control Board vide Order No. TSPCB/CFO/NZBG/HO/2017-42,Dt.04.04.2017 and valid up to 30.04.2022 under Auto Renewal for the 2x600 MW Thermal Power Plant which is under Operation. In view of the power crisis in the newly formed state of Telangana, State Government vide letter dated 16.03.2017 accorded approval for setting up 1x800 MW as expansion and directed the SCCL to establish one more unit of 1x800 MW in addition to 2x600 MW Thermal Power Plant.((From 1200 MW to 2000 MW by adding 1x800 MW)

As SCCL is already constructed 2x600 MW units and are in operation, some of the BOP facilities of these units have spare capacities which can be utilized for the proposed 1X800 MW unit. The review of existing system reveals their adequacy for the proposed additional unit. The spare capacities of the existing system have been worked out after meeting the requirements for the 2x600 MW units in operation.

Infrastructure facilities such as land, water transport arrangements, railway line, roads etc. are available. The advantages of proposing the additional unit at same location are:  No new infrastructure facilities are required for expansion unit.  Total required land is available with SCCL.  No Re-settlement is involved.  Availability of adequate raw water from Pranahita River.  Water will be pumped through the existing pipe line and pump house.  There is no forest land involved for the project.  Since existing facilities are being used, cost of the power would be less.

2.3 NEED FOR THE PROJECT AND ITS IMPORTANCE TO THE COUNTRY AND OR REGION POWER SCENARIO OF TELANGANA STATE - POWER SUPPLY SCENARIO As per the report “Power for All – Telangana State” A joint initiative of Govt. of India and Govt. of Telangana State, energy deficit in Telangana for last year’s was in the range of 4%-12%. Energy requirement in Telangana was 50,916 MU in FY 14-15, of which only 2,128 MU could not be met resulting in an energy deficit of nearly 4.2% with a maximum historic peak demand of 8,331 MW in 2014-15.

As can be seen from the table below, peak demand has increased by over 2,588 MW during the period FY 2008-09 till FY 2014-15 as against which peak met has increased by 1,345 MW.

Implementation of 24X7 supply across the State is likely to increase the electricity consumption substantially. Various factors that have been considered for future energy projections include:  Demand from Domestic segment  Agriculture supply from 7 hours to 9 hours in a day  Implementation of Lift Irrigation Schemes  Urban development in cities of Hyderabad, Warangal, Nizamabad and Karimnagar.  Upcoming major projects such as Hyderabad Metro Rail, Hyderabad ITIR region  Upcoming Bayyaram Steel Plant.  Existing Generation Capacity  Energy availability from existing sources as on FY 2014-15 was about 48,788 MU inclusive of market purchases and coal based power from long-term sources constituted nearly 66% of energy availability. PPAs due to expire in the next 5 years Some of the existing PPAs of TSDISCOMS with generators would expire during the next 10 years. Currently, Telangana is entitled to 53.89% of power from TSGENCO and APGENCO stations. Post expiry of PPA, no capacity would be available from APGENCO stations while 100% capacity of TSGENCO plants would be available to Telangana. This project (Singareni TPP Stage-II) has already been identified in the referred report while calculating the generation capacity and meeting the required supply of power against the demand to energize the power thirsty & development oriented newly formed Telangana State. Considering above facts & data, it is prudent to go for a coal based supercritical unit of 1X800MW utilizing the space available and the facilities of Stage-I.

2.5 Imports Vs Indigenous Production The entire saleable power from the project will be procured by TSTRANSCO independent consumers by utilizing the 400 kV power transmission grids being managed by TSTRANSCO. The saleable power from the additional unit will be of the order of 754 MW after accounting for

THE SINGARENI COLLIERIES COMPANY LIMITED 7 Pre-Feasibility Report for expansion of Singareni TPP (From 1200 MW to 2000 MW by adding 1x800 MW)

auxiliary power consumption of 5.75%.The total salable power from the entire 2X600 MW &1X800 MW will be 1885 MW to the TSTRANSCO.

Indigenous production of the power will be much cheaper, reliable and comfort than the import of the power from other states, The proponent is operating number of coal mines in the area of power plant there will not be any problem of supply of coal to the power plant.

2.6 Employment Generation (Direct & Indirect) due to the Project During the construction period the requirement of manpower will be about 2000 to 3000 persons on temporary basis. During Operational phase, direct employment for 1550 persons (1100 for 2x600 MW and 450 for additional 1X800 MW) will get and about 1000 persons will get indirect employment.

The proposed 1x800 MW Coal Based Thermal Power Plant of STPP, Stage-II is super- critical pulverised boiler technology. Coal received from the mines (expected bridge linkage from SCCL mines) at -200 mm size is crushed in the crusher house to -20mm size, which is subsequently pulverized in the coal mill. The powdered coal is burnt in the furnace to generate steam in the boiler. The steam generated in the boiler is expanded in the HP, IP & LP turbines and power is generated in the generator. The steam after expansion in the turbine is condensed in the condenser and the condensed steam is circulated back to the boiler. The hot gasses from the furnace after losing heat in different areas goes through the Electrostatic Precipitators, where ash is collected. The clean gas goes through the chimney. The bottom ash from boiler is collected in hydro-bins where water is separated and Ash in dry form is sent to underground mines of SCCL. The separated water will be reused / recirculated in the system.

9 Analysis of proposal (Final Recommendations)

9.1 Project cost estimates and financial analysis

For additional 1x800MW

The objective of this section is to estimate and analyze the project cost, cost of generation and Levelised tariff for the proposed project in order to assess overall financial viability of the project.

Basis of cost estimates The project cost estimate for the proposed power plant has been worked out on the following basis; i. Unit size considered is 800 MW for financial analysis. Commissioning of the project is considered as 50 months from zero date. ii. Various items of packages covered in the cost estimates are based on most of the packages are based on the awarded rates for various ongoing projects of NTPC and suitably updated to current price level. iii. The cost of Balance of Plant (BoP) and other equipment has been estimated based on preliminary design and on the benchmark cost of the similar projects. iv. The project is financed through domestic funding. Taxes and duties on supply of equipment, civil works, contract and erection and commissioning have been worked out as per the prevalent rates. The economic plant life has been taken as 25 years for depreciation calculation as per CERC norms.

As per the above report, the overall peak demand shortage during 2014-15 in the newly formed state Telangana is 4.2%.

Conclusion As seen from the above, the gap between availability of power and the demand is not likely to be met in the foreseeable future either in Southern region or in Telangana. All out efforts are called for to add capacity considering the fuel availability and evacuation system.

Accordingly, the proposal of Singareni Collieries Company Limited, for extension of unit of 800 MW will further help in meeting the shortfall in generating capacity in the Telangana State.

Annexure E5 Compliance status for implementation of revised emission standards Dated: 7.12.2015 for the existing power plant & proposed project

Existing Power Plant (2x600MW) SCCL TPP (2x600MW) is complying the standards stipulated by the Ministry vide Notification dated 07.12.2015.

The water consumption for existing 2x600MW TPP is 3700 m3/Hour. The specific water consumption is coming to 3.08Cu.m/MWh.(all existing CT based plants reduce specific water consumption upto maximum of 3.5m3/MWh within a period of two years from the date of publication of this notification).

3 3 3 Meeting the stack emission standards of PM 50mg/Nm ; SO2 200mg/Nm ; NOx 300mg/Nm ; and Mercury 0.03mg/Nm3.

For meeting particulate matter emission standard high efficiency Electro Static Precipitator (ESP) has already been provided with microprocessor based programmable type rapper control system and ESP management system to ensure safe and optimum operation of ESP.

For meeting SO2emission standards low sulphur content coal is being used and for meeting NOx emission standard low NOx burners are used. STPP is processing the installation of FGD plant for further reduction of SO2 Emission.

Proposed Power Plant ( 1 x 800 MW) – TPPs to installed from 1st January 2017 Proposed SCCL TPP (1x800MW) will comply the standards stipulated by the Ministry vide Notification dated 07.12.2015.

The water consumption for proposed 1x800MW TPP is 2000 m3/hr (New plants to be installed after 1st January 2017 shall have to meet specific water consumption upto maximum of 2.5m3/MWh and achieve zero waste water discharged) with zero discharge by utilization after treatment within plant for horticulture, ash handling and dust suppression.

3 3 3 Meeting the stack emission standards of PM 30mg/Nm ; SO2 100mg/Nm ; NOx 100mg/Nm ; and Mercury 0.03mg/Nm3 following control measures are provided.

For meeting particulate matter emission standard high efficiency Electro Static Precipitator (ESP) is proposed. The ESP will be provided with microprocessor based programmable type rapper control system and ESP management system to ensure safe and optimum operation of ESP.

For meeting SO2 emission standards Wet Limestone Flue Gas Desulphurizing (FGD) system shall be installed. The FGD system shall have an independent absorber limestone milling systems and gypsum dewatering system. The SO2 removal efficiency will be >/= to 90%.

For meeting NOx emission standards flue gas Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) DeNOx system will be installed. The SCR system shall be planned designed to perform and demonstrate to meet the environmental norms of MOEFCC.

Mercury exists in three forms in coal fired thermal power plants flue gas: (i) Elemental Hg (O) (ii) Oxidized Hg (2+) (iii) Particle bound Hg (P). The Hg(P) fraction is typically removed by ESP, particulate control device. The Hg(2+) portion is water soluble and therefore a relatively high percentage can be captured by wet flue gas desulphurization (FGD) system. The Hg(O) fraction is generally not captured by proposed air pollution control device. However, the proposed SCR for controlling NOx emissions will promote oxidation of Hg(O) to Hg(2+) and enhance Hg capture in downstream FGD.
