management, new & renewable energy, efficiency
improvement and cost reduction besides providing scientific
support to NTPC and external utilities for improving
availability, reliability and efficiency.
22. NETR's emphasis is on developing cutting edge technologies by
carrying out applied research which will translate into cost
reductions as well as a greener & cleaner tomorrow. NETRA is

climate change, new & renewable energy, efficiency & reliability
enhancement of thermal power generation and CO2
mitigation/fixation. It is also in touch with many International
institutes/organisations for networking in these areas.
Initiatives are taken to develop technologies for reducing forced
outages, installing intelligent online monitoring of critical
components, understanding the likely damages due to corrosion
and providing appropriate solutions etc. Effort is being made for
reducing cost of generation by either increasing the overhaul
cycle or reducing overhaul duration through correct and proper
health assessment of critical components, developing diagnostic
tools and ensuring environmental & safety compliances. The
prime thrust is towards clean and economic power generation.

26. ASH UTILISATION
Fly ash is a byproduct of power generation with coal. Sustainable
ash utilisation is one of the key concerns at NTPC. The Ash
Utilisation Division (AUD), set up in 1991, strives to derive
maximum usage from the vast quantities of ash produced at its
power stations. The ash is now being looked at as a commodity
that could generate wealth for the company in the long run. The
AUD proactively formulates policies, plans and programmes for
ash utilisation. It further monitors the progress in these activities
and works for developing new segments of ash usage. Ash
Utilisation Cell at each station handles ash utilisation activities.
Research has shown that the quality of fly ash produced at
NTPC’s power stations is extremely good with respect to fineness,
low unburnt carbon and has high pozzolanic activity and conforms
to the requirements of IS 3812 - 2003-Pulverized Fuel Ash for use
as Pozzolana in cement, cement mortar and concrete. The fly ash
generated at NTPC stations is ideal for use in the manufacture of
cement, concrete, concrete products, cellular concrete products,
bricks/blocks/ tiles etc.
