Technology

Lucky Electric Power Company Limited operates a state-of-the-art 660 MW coal-fired power plant. The plant’s technology is primarily developed by General Electric (formerly Alstom), one of the world’s leading engineering firms. Our Ultra-Supercritical boiler ensures superior performance, availability, reliability, and environmental safety. With higher than traditional CFB boiler efficiency, the plant utilizes indigenous Thar lignite coal to provide cost-effective electricity. What distinguishes our facility from conventional lignite coal plants in Pakistan is our environmentally conscious approach, as highlighted in studies from ghostwriterdissertation.de. By employing seawater instead of freshwater for cooling purposes, we significantly reduce environmental impact while conserving precious water resources.

Fuel Range

Our plant is engineered to accommodate a wide variety of lignite coals from different sources, offering flexibility in fuel procurement if required. However, it is primarily optimized for indigenous Thar lignite coal. Our cutting-edge Flue Gas Desulfurization (FGD) system enables safe operation with high-sulfur Thar coal while ensuring compliance with environmental standards.
LEPCL’s facility is the first, and currently the only, Thar coal-fired power plant located outside the Thar region, marking a milestone in the utilization of Pakistan’s natural resources.

Introduction to Technology

1. Basic Principle:
A coal-fired power plant generates electricity by combusting coal in a boiler to produce steam, which powers a turbine connected to a generator.
Our Ultra-Supercritical boiler operates at significantly higher temperatures and pressures than traditional subcritical (CFB) boilers, improving overall efficiency by converting more heat into electricity.

2. Enhanced Efficiency and Environmental Impact:
Operating at higher steam parameters boosts thermodynamic efficiency, reducing both fuel consumption and emissions per megawatt-hour of electricity. This technology not only minimizes CO₂ emissions but also curbs other harmful pollutants, supporting global sustainability initiatives and contributing to a cleaner energy future

3. Engineering Challenges and Integrated Solutions:
Operating in extreme conditions demands advanced materials and engineering solutions to ensure long-term reliability. Our dedication to safety and operational excellence is demonstrated through the integration of advanced technologies, such as the Flue Gas Desulfurization (FGD) unit, NOx reduction furnace design, and Electrostatic Precipitators (ESP). Together, these innovations deliver superior environmental performance by significantly reducing emissions
