Overview
Vikram Cement is a 46 MW coal power plant located in India. It is operational and owned by Vikram Vikram cement.
Vikram Cement is a coal-fired power plant with a capacity of 46 megawatts, located in India. The facility is currently operational and owned by Vikram Vikram cement. As a coal power plant, it contributes to the country's energy mix, supporting industrial and residential electricity needs. The plant operates under India's environmental regulations, including the Environment Protection Act and emission standards for coal-fired power plants. With a capacity of 46 MW, it falls into the small-scale category for coal power generation in India, where larger plants often exceed 500 MW. The use of coal as primary fuel involves typical emissions such as CO2, SOx, and NOx, which are subject to monitoring and control measures. Vikram Cement plays a role in local power supply, likely serving nearby communities and industries. Its location in India places it within a rapidly growing energy market, where coal remains a significant energy source despite increasing renewable energy adoption. The plant's operational status indicates ongoing contribution to grid stability and economic activity in the region.
Environmental context
The plant's coal combustion generates CO2, SOx, and NOx emissions, contributing to local air quality considerations. Its capacity of 46 MW suggests a relatively smaller environmental footprint compared to larger coal plants, but cumulative impacts depend on proximity to populated areas and adherence to emission norms. India's regulatory framework, including emission standards for coal plants, governs its operations.
