Andrew DeLeone, Managing Director - GE Power India Ltd said, "World over, the economics of power generation have become tighter and regulations have become even stricter. As India strives to attain the right mix of fuel sources to meet increasing demand and emissions goals, curbing SO2 emissions is a foremost priority. FGDs will play an instrumental role in transforming power plants to reduce their environmental impact. It is a proud moment for GE to be associated with this project and with NTPC, a customer we deeply value. The successful completion of trial operation of this turn-key full flow FGD system puts GE Power in a unique position in the country as India gears-up to implement DeSOx solutions in an installed base in excess of 150 GW."

GE is an industry leader in cleaner power generation from coal with a broad portfolio of air quality control systems that can help further lower atmospheric emissions. For thermal plants, GE offers emission control solutions with high collection efficiency, reduced capital costs, and low auxiliary power loads.
