Companies under state-owned power producer NTPC Group recorded a generation of 104.4 BU in the first quarter from April to June 2022, an increase of 21.7% from 85.8 BU generated in the corresponding quarter last year. In the month of June ’22, generation was 34.8 BU, higher by 29.3% compared to 26.9 BU in June ’21, indicating improved performance and an increase in demand for power in the current year.

NTPC Talcher Kaniha in Orissa (3,000 MW) is the top performing thermal power plant with 94.2% Plant Load Factor (PLF) between April and June 2022.

Overall Plant Load Factor of NTPC Coal stations was 80% from April to June 2022 against 69% in the same period last year, a testimony to the high levels of operational excellence and the expertise of NTPC in operation and maintenance of the power plants.

NTPC is expanding its footprint in new business areas like green hydrogen, waste-to-energy and e-mobility. India’s largest power producer is also aiming 10 per cent reduction in net energy intensity by 2032. NTPC has become India's first energy company to declare its energy compact goals as part of the UN High-level Dialogue on Energy (HLDE).
