Abstract
The proposed project is to perform Energy audit of Feed water system at Abhijeet MADC Nagpur Energy Private Limited (AMNEPL), 4X61.5 MW Mihan Power Plant, Khairy Khurd, Hingna, Nagpur. The objective of the audit is to identify and obtain energy efficiency through operation of boiler feed pump by means of scoop control in auto mode (DP method) during daily operation of the plant at varying load conditions. The scope of the audit covers the boiler feed pumps and the feed water system in each unit of the AMNEPL power plant. Boiler feed pump is one of the equipments in a power plant with the highest auxiliary consumption.
