Kakkad Hydro Electric Project

The Kakkad Hydroelectric Power Plant is located near Seethathode, in the Pathanamthitta district of the Indian state of Kerala. It is operated by the Kerala State Electricity Board. This hydropower plant has a design capacity of 50 MWe. It has 2 turbines, commissioned in 1998 and 1999. Features The project is in the second stage of development. The installed capacity is 50 MW (2 x 25MW). This scheme utilizes the tail race water from Sabarigiri power station and water from the Moozhiyar and Velluthode rivers. Two dams store water for the powerhouse. The main reservoir is on the Moozhiyar. The second reservoir is formed by the Veluthodu dam, across the Velluthode river. After generating power, water is released to the Kakkad River. Ullunkal and Karikkayam power stations use this water for power generation and then release it into the Maniyar reservoir for power generation at the Maniyar power station.

ГЕС Каккад

ГЕС Каккад — гідроелектростанція на півдні Індії у штаті Керала. Розташована між ГЕС Сабарігірі (вище за течією) та малою ГЕС Уллумкал (7 МВт) і входить до гідровузла у верхній частині сточища Памби, яка впадає в Лаккадівське море за пів сотні кілометрів на південь від Кочі. Відпрацьована на ГЕС Сабарігірі вода потрапляє у сховище греблі Moozhiyar, яка перекрила однойменну ліву притоку річки Каккад, котра в свою чергу є лівою притокою Памби. Ця комбінована земляна та мурована споруда має висоту 34 метри, довжину 177 метрів та потребувала 52 тис. м3 матеріалу. Вона утримує невелику водойму з площею поверхні 0,15 км2, корисним об'ємом 1,16 млн м3 та коливанням рівня поверхні в операційному режимі між позначками 181 та 193 метри НРМ. Окрім води від першого ступеня гідровузла, сховище дозволяє захопити сток із верхньої течії Moozhiyar, після чого ресурс спрямовується у прокладений через лівобережний гірський масив дериваційний тунель довжиною 11 км. На своєму шляху він отримує поповнення з річки Veluthode (ліва притока Moozhiyar), на якій зведена гребля висотою 22 метри та довжиною 107 метрів, котра потребувала 15 тис. м3 матеріалу та утримує водойму з площею поверхні 0,06 км2, корисним об'ємом 0,6 млн м3 та коливанням рівня поверхні в операційному режимі між позначками 186 та 192 метри НРМ. Машинний зал, облаштований на лівому березі Каккад після впадіння Moozhiyar, містить дві турбіни типу Френсіс потужністю по 25 МВт, які при напорі у 133 метри забезпечують виробництво 262 млн кВт-год електроенергії на рік. Продукція видається до мережі по ЛЕП, розрахованих на роботу під напругою 110 кВ. Примітки

Brahmapuram Diesel Power Plant

Brahmapuram Diesel Power Plant is a 106.6 MW public sector power station in Kochi, India run by the Kerala State Electricity Board, commissioned in 1997. It is controlled by Kerala load Distribution Center(KLDC). Overview The plant is based on large-bore 4 stroke diesel engines from MAN B&W, Germany. The plant has a total of five machines with capacity to generate 21.32 MW power each. Though the station is still known as diesel power plant, it has been using low sulphur heavy stock (LSHS) -- a residual fuel processed from indigenous crude, provided by IOC—in place of diesel. LSHS is in semisolid form. It is heated by steam to make it liquid form. When melts it becomes the same form of diesel. The transfer of diesel to LSHS is done by a three valve mechanism(first diesel, then a mixture of diesel and LSHS, then LSHS). Number of Cylinders : 18 Cylinder configuration : V type Engine capacity : 18000 cc/cylinder Engine power : 30,000 bhp Fuel used : Diesel (for starting), LSHS(low sulphur heavy stock) Electrical section The engine is coupled with an alternator. The alternator consists of a stator and a rotor and the entire assembly is under one case. Switchgear of 220 kV, 25000 A is used to control the supply. Then the load is reduced to 11 kV for transmission, with the help of step down transformers It uses direct current for all its applications (easy to store). The cost of power production at the existing diesel plant at Brahmapuram is Rs. 13 per kWh, considering the cost the three machines are operated only when it is absolutely necessary. The power produced from here is connected to the KSEB grid and supplied to the consumers in the state of Kerala. Expansion The Kerala State Electricity Board has decided to set up a 400MW combined cycle power generation facility on the premises of the existing power plant at Brahmapuram, using natural gas as the feedstock. GAIL will be supplying LNG for the new power plant from the Petronet LNG Terminal. The power plant is likely to be completed by early 2017. See also Bhramapuram landfill References
