Power Mech Projects Limited (PMPL), a prominent player in the industrial engineering, construction, and services sectors, has won a major contract from Bharat Heavy Electricals Limited (BHEL). The company will deliver the Balance of Plant (BoP) Package on an EPC (Engineering, Procurement, and Construction) basis for the 1 x 800 MW Singareni Thermal Power Station (TPS) Stage-II project. The contract, valued at over ₹2500 crore (excluding GST), further strengthens PMPL’s position in India’s rapidly growing power sector.
Under this agreement, PMPL will be responsible for the design, procurement, and construction of key systems including the coal and biomass handling systems, ash handling system, utilities, Induced Draft Cooling Tower (IDCT), water and wastewater treatment facilities, fire protection system, and associated civil, structural, electrical, and instrumentation works.
Commenting on the award, Sajja Kishore Babu, Chairman and Managing Director of PMPL, expressed confidence that this project would bolster the company’s already robust order book and showcase its strengths in executing large-scale engineering and construction projects. He added, “This award aligns with our vision for growth and supports India’s mission to boost its power generation capacity, ensuring reliable energy security through sustainable and efficient thermal power plants.”
He further highlighted the continued importance of thermal power, despite the ongoing shift to renewable energy sources. “Thermal power remains essential for maintaining uninterrupted electricity supply and grid stability,” he said. “The Government of India’s future roadmap includes high-efficiency supercritical and ultra-supercritical thermal units, with cleaner combustion technologies and biomass co-firing, which balance performance and environmental concerns.”
