Overview

JOJBERA is a 427.5 MW coal power plant located in India. It is operational and contributes to the country's power generation capacity.

JOJBERA is a coal-fired power plant located in India, with a capacity of 427.5 MW. The plant is operational and plays a role in meeting the energy demands of the region. As a coal-based facility, it is part of India's diverse power generation mix, which includes a significant share of thermal power. The plant operates under India's environmental regulations, including the Environment Protection Act and emission standards for coal power plants. The technology used is typical for coal plants of this scale, with subcritical or supercritical boilers depending on the age of the facility. India's coal power sector is subject to evolving norms for emissions of SOx, NOx, and particulate matter. The facility's location in eastern India places it in a region with significant coal reserves and industrial activity. The plant's output supports local grid stability and economic development. As with many coal plants, its environmental footprint includes CO2 emissions and resource consumption, balanced by its role in providing reliable baseload power.

Environmental context

The plant's coal fuel source results in CO2, SOx, NOx, and particulate emissions, typical for coal power generation. Its location in eastern India, a region with coal mining and industrial activity, may contribute to local air quality concerns. The plant's capacity of 427.5 MW places it in the medium-to-large scale for Indian coal plants, with potential environmental impacts proportional to its output.
