2022-05-04
The Poringalkuthu Small Hydro-Electric Project (also called as Poringalkuthu Left Bank additional extension Hydro electric project) envisages the utilization of the spill water from the existing Peringalkuthu reservoir by the construction of the water-conducting system of 2 km length and a powerhouse with an installed capacity of 24 MW near to the existing Poringalkuthu Left Bank Extension powerhouse. The project is situated along the Chalakudy River basin in the Chalakudy Taluk of Thrissur District. The water conductor system of the project consists of an Intake Structure, Power tunnel, Surge shaft, Valve house, Pressure shaft and steel penstock leading to the machine of 24 MW capacity in the powerhouse. The power generated from this project is fed into the 110KV switchyard for power evacuation to the system grid. The annual generation target is 45.02MU.The PLBAE power project was officially inaugurated on May 04, 2022, by Sri K. Krishnankutty, the Honorable Minister for Electricity of Kerala. The powerhouse is equipped with a single vertical Francis turbine coupled with a 3-phase 24MW generator. The turbine and Generator were designed and manufactured by M/S Hunan Allonward Hydro Generating Co. Ltd, China. The power generated is transmitted to the Chalakudy 110kV grid substation through two 110kV feeders. The third feeder is connected to the Sholayar power station and the fourth feeder is connected to the Malayattoor 110KV substation.
