Rungta Kamanda power station is captive power capacity related to the Kamanda Steel Plant in Odisha, India.

Rungta Mines of India may operate additional captive capacity at other sites, such as at the Dhenkanal Steel Plant ("AFBC/CFBC: 635 MW power plant based on coal, coal fines, washery middlings and char from DRI kilns" proposed).

Background

In August 2017, Rungta Mines of India was seeking approval for a captive coal plant expansion to fuel a proposed expansion of its integrated steel plant in Kamanda village, Odisha.

Environmental Clearance was granted in November 2017.

The EIA noted the plant reportedly included 142 MW of captive power capacity related to the Kamanda Steel Plant. This appeared to involve a 66 MW Waste Heat Recovery Boiler and a 76 MW Atmospheric Fluidized Bed Combustion / Circulating Fluidized Bed Combustion; a 56 MW expansion appeared proposed, of 21 MW and 35 MW. (However, the document listed other capacities making the situation unclear. For example: "The power requirement of existing plant is fulfilled by existing captive power plant of 40 MW. Now it is envisaged to meet the power requirement for the additional proposed facilities from the proposed Captive Power Plant of 198 MW (111 MW AFBC + 87 MW WHRB).")

The capacity is omitted from Global Energy Monitor's Global Coal Plant Tracker (January 2022).
