Bharat Heavy Electricals Limited (BHEL) has successfully commissioned a 250 MW coal-based thermal power plant at Gujarat State Electricity Corporation Limited’s (GSECL) Sikka Thermal Power Station (TPS) on EPC basis.
 
Two units of 120 MW each, supplied and executed earlier by BHEL, are already in operation at Sikka TPS, which is located near Jamnagar (Gujarat). Another 250 MW unit, presently under execution at Sikka TPS, is also in an advanced stage of commissioning. The sets of this rating class, supplied by BHEL, are considered significant in the Indian power sector.
 
BHEL has so far contracted 251 sets of this rating class. GSECL has also recently entrusted BHEL with an order for setting up an 800 MW supercritical coal-based project at Wanakbori, on EPC basis.
