Overview

Manikgarh Cement is a 50 MW coal power plant located in India, operated by Manikgarh Manikgarh cement. It is currently operational.

Manikgarh Cement is a coal-fired power plant located in India, with a capacity of 50 MW. The plant is owned and operated by Manikgarh Manikgarh cement and is currently in operational status. As a coal-based facility, it contributes to the regional power grid, supporting industrial and residential electricity needs. The plant operates under India's environmental regulations, including the Environment Protection Act and emission standards for coal power plants. With a capacity of 50 MW, it falls into the small-scale category for coal power generation in India. The technology employed is typical for smaller coal plants, often using subcritical boiler technology. The facility's location in central India places it in a region with significant coal reserves and industrial activity. Its operation supports local cement production and other industries, while its emissions are subject to national air quality standards. The plant's role in the grid is to provide baseload power, contributing to energy security in the area.

Environmental context

The plant's coal fuel source results in CO2, SOx, and NOx emissions, typical for coal power generation. Its location in a region with moderate population density means local air quality impacts are a consideration. The 50 MW capacity indicates a relatively small footprint, but coal combustion still contributes to regional emission inventories. Regulatory compliance with Indian emission standards is essential for minimizing environmental harm.
