GIPCL Vadodara Gas based Power Station is Gas turbine based combined cycle power plant. It is located at Dhanora village in Vadodara, Gujarat. The power plant is run by state-owned Gujarat Industrial Power Corporation Limited (GIPCL).[2][3] The primary electricity generation is through the Gas turbines. Waste heat from the gas turbine is recovered by a heat recovery steam generator (HRSG) to power a conventional steam turbine. The HRSG recovers heat from a hot gas stream and produces steam, the steam utilized to power the steam turbines.
Gujarat Industrial Power Corporation Limited (GIPCL) is a Public Limited company incorporated in 1985. The company has been promoted by Gujarat's Public Sector Undertakings (PSUs), namely GSFC, GACL, Petrofils Co-operative Ltd., and GUVNL. In 1992, GIPCL commissioned its first power plant at Vadodara. It is a gas bases combined cycle power plant with 145 MW capacity. The concept of this power plant is a group captive power plant, which supplies power to promoter companies; the power distribution to the promoters is in proportion to their original equity holding.[4]
