Bharat Heavy Electricals Limited (BHEL) had dispatched its 42nd nuclear steam generator to Nuclear Power Corporation of India Limited (NPCIL) for setting up a 700 MW Atomic Power project in Rajasthan.

The steam generator was flagged off from the Trichy plant of BHEL in the presence of senior officials of BHEL and NPCIL.

BHEL has achieved a milestone with the despatch of its 42nd nuclear steam generator to NPCIL.

BHEL has been catering to the needs of the nation's nuclear programme since 1976 by designing, manufacturing, testing and supplying critical nuclear power components such as reactor headers, steam generators, steam turbine generators, and others.

The first stage of the indigenous nuclear power programme of India by BHEL had attained maturity with operating 18 Pressurised Heavy Water Reactors (PHWRs).

About 12 PHWRs account for 74% of the indigenous nuclear power capacity, fully-equipped with BHEL-supplied steam turbine generator sets.
