MORDI PLANT - Coal Power Generation Facility in India

MORDI PLANT is a coal-fired power generation facility located in India, with coordinates 23.5496° N, 74.4072° E. The plant has a capacity of 46 MW and is currently operational. It is owned by Rswm Rswm ltd, a company involved in the power sector. The plant operates on coal as its primary fuel, a common choice for base-load power in India. With a capacity of 46 MW, it falls into the small-scale category for coal power plants. India's coal power sector is regulated by the Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change (MoEFCC) under the Environment Protection Act, with emission standards for SOx, NOx, and particulate matter. The plant likely uses subcritical technology, typical for older and smaller units. MORDI PLANT plays a role in meeting local electricity demand, particularly in the region near its location. Its relatively small capacity suggests it may serve a localized area or industrial user. The plant's environmental footprint includes CO2 emissions and other pollutants, which are subject to national regulations. Continued operation depends on compliance with evolving emission norms and the availability of coal supply.

The plant's coal combustion releases CO2, SOx, NOx, and particulate matter, contributing to local air quality concerns. Its location in India, a country with growing energy demand, places it under regulatory oversight for emissions. Proximity to populated areas could increase exposure to pollutants. The 46 MW capacity indicates a moderate environmental impact per unit of electricity generated, but cumulative effects from multiple such plants are significant.
