Bharat Heavy Electricals Limited (BHEL) has achieved a breakthrough in its international business by making its maiden entry in the Turkish power market by bagging Rs.130-crore contract for rehabilitation of electrostatic precipitators (ESPs).

Against stiff international competitive bidding, the company, which has heavy plate and vessels plant here, bagged the contract for rehabilitation of three units of ESPs for the 430 MW Tuncbilek Thermal Power Project in Turkey on engineering, procurement and construction basis.

For the prestigious contract, ESPs will be manufactured and supplied by BHEL’s Ranipet unit, motors and other auxiliaries by its Bhopal facility and controls by the company’s Bengaluru unit.

Valued at Euro 16.96 million (approximately Rs.130 crore), the order envisages dismantling, supply, civil works and erection and commissioning of the electrostatic precipitators.

The order has been placed on BHEL by Electricity Generation Company (Turkish: Elektrik Üretim A.S. Genel Müdürlügü; EÜAS) which is the largest electric power company in Turkey.
