New Plants of MHI's JVs in India Launch Full-scale Operation, Producing Supercritical-pressure Boilers and Steam Turbines/Generators

-- Aggressive Response to High-efficiency Coal-fired Power Generation Needs –

 

Tokyo, January 11, 2011 - Two new plants belonging to two joint ventures between Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Ltd. (MHI) and Larsen and Toubro Limited (L and T) of India, created to manufacture supercritical-pressure*1 coal-fired boilers and steam turbines/generators respectively, have been completed and launched full-scale operations. The two JVs were established to respond aggressively to India's strong electricity demand, which is sharply increasing along with that country's robust economic growth, through the manufacture and supply of high-efficiency coal-fired power generation equipment.

 

To celebrate the completion and commencement of full-scale operations at the two new plants, a ceremony took place in India today. Attending were A. M. Naik, Chairman of L and T, and Hideaki Omiya, President of MHI, as well as many guests and persons concerned, including officials of India’s central government related to power and industry and Gujarat state government members.


The two new plants were built on a site adjacent to L and T's existing plant in an industrial park at Hazira in Gujarat state, in northwestern India. The 54,000 square meter (m2) boiler production plant, located on a 280,000 m2 property, is managed by L and T MHI Boilers Private Limited (LMB), a JV headquartered in Mumbai. By using advanced equipment, the boiler production plant has commenced welding and assembly work of boiler parts. On the same site LMBPL has also built a 9,900 m2 plant to manufacture coal mills, which are used to crush coal – fuel for boilers, and inaugurated assembly of machines. Plans call for the plant to start machining of related parts this autumn.


The plant for manufacturing steam turbines and generators is operated by L and T MHI Turbine Generators Private Limited (LMTG), a JV based in Mumbai, of which Mitsubishi Electric Corporation is also a JV partner as generator technology licensor. The 53,000 m2 factory, situated on a 280,000 m2 site, consists of a turbine production building and a generator manufacturing building, in which large manufacturing machinery and test equipment are installed. The plant is currently producing supercritical-pressure steam turbines for a coal-fired plant under construction in Andhra Pradesh state*2 and began delivery to the site last year.


Since their establishment in 2007, the two JVs have been establishing solid foothold in thermal power generation equipment market in India, respectively, securing firm orders for seven boilers, ranging from 600 megawatts (MW) to 800 MW, and nine turbines.


L and T, headquartered in Mumbai, is a high technology-driven engineering and construction organization and one of the largest companies in India’s private sector. As a comprehensive manufacturer of heavy machinery, L and T also produces machinery and equipment for chemical plants and pressurized vessels. Establishment of the two JVs meshed the aspirations of both MHI and L and T. MHI had been seeking a foothold in power generation operations in India’s rapidly growing market, while L and T had been looking for a partner possessing advanced technologies.

 

 

BHEL-ALSTOM, L AND T-MHI IN FINAL ROUND OF NTPC TENDER

 

BHEL-Alstom and L and T-Mitsubishi Heavy Industry have made it to the final round of NTPC’s supercritical boiler tender, estimated at over Rs 10,000 crore. NTPC has set the deadline for bids to January 20.

 

A senior executive in one of the companies, requesting anonymity, said NTPC had issued letters to the BHEL and L and T-led consortia for the prestigious tender today. This was the second time that NTPC called for bids for the contract after L and T was disqualified on technical grounds in the first round.

 

L and T and BHEL were the only two qualified bidders in the first round. Bids from L and T Power, a 100 per cent subsidiary of L and T, was disqualified in June on the grounds that the company lacked experience to supply super critical boilers and lacked equity partnerships in manufacturing of boilers.

 

L and T’s joint ventures with a Japanese company – L and T MHI Boilers Private limited and L and T-MHI Turbine Generators Private limited – are between L and T and MHI, and not between L and T Power and MHI.

 

NTPC had issued a tender for bulk orders of supercritical power equipment with a cumulative generation capacity of 7,200 Mw. The tender had said that the bidder must have a manufacturing facility in India.

 

Though L and T had challenged its disqualification, the Supreme Court rejected its petition in October. The Delhi High Court had earlier rejected the company’s plea for staying the re-bid process. Besides formalising partnerships, the tender conditions also required the bidders to have acquired around 70 per cent of the land for putting up the manufacturing facility.

 

NTPC’s orders are for 11 boilers — nine for its own projects and two for the Damodar Valley Corporation. According to the tender, the lowest bidder for boilers would be given an order for six units. If BHEL is not the lowest bidder, the government will award the order for the remaining five units if it agrees to match the lowest bid. The option will be given to others, in case BHEL does not match the bid.

 

NTPC had floated the bulk tender for 660 Mw in October 2009. The last date for the submission of bids was January 28. Only BHEL and L and T had bid for the boilers but the boiler package was retendered in June. Besides L and T and BHEL, a consortium of Gammon-Ansaldo and BGR-Hitachi had also joined the fray.

 

The country’s biggest power generator had earlier selected a consortium of Bharat Forge-Alstom for the turbine and generator package of the bulk tender. Contracts for the boiler and turbine packages will be awarded simultaneously, said a NTPC official.

 

The government had last week approved another bulk tender for procuring nine supercritical units of 800 Mw capacity each.
