Feasibility study of gas based power plant under private sector

Abstract

This project was designed to analyze the feasibility for installation of Power Plant. This report deals basically with the feasibility study and evaluation of the project: ‘Feasibility Study of Gas Based Power Plant Under Private Sector’. The main objective of the study focuses on feasibility analysis using both financial and economic appraisal including BCR (F), BCR (E), IRR (F), IRR (E) and discounted payback period to check the viability of the project. Feasibility of proposed plant location is evaluated on the basis of site selection criteria. Plant capacity is determined on the basis of raw materials supply and profitability. Fixed Capital Investment cost is determined by „Ratio of plant capacities Power factor‟ method on the basis of the cost of 150 MW combined cycle plant at Chandpur in 2012. Plant operating costs, overheads and other expenses are also taken from the similar costs of Ashuganj Power station and Shikalbaha Power Station. Economic and Financial Evacuation are performed on plant capacities of 150 MW, 225 MW, 300 MW and 450 MW with duel fuel option (Gas and HFO). Conclusions are made on the findings of above mentioned evaluations.
