The Central Electricity Authority (CEA) is actively monitoring the progress of the under-construction power projects through regular site visits, discussions with developers and regular review meetings with stakeholders. The aim of the effort is to identify and address the critical issues for timely commissioning of power projects. Going a step further towards monitoring these thermal power projects, this online thermal project monitoring portal has been developed to facilitate power project developers towards monitoring a digital process. NTPC has helped develop this portal.
The newly launched prompt portal is designed to facilitate real-time tracking and analysis of thermal power projects. This online platform enables project managers and stakeholders to make quick informed decisions, ensuring that potential delays and issues are quickly identified and addressed promptly.
Salient features and benefits of prompt
Real-time tracking and analysis: The portal provides a centralized platform to monitor all aspects of project implementation, enabling speedy identification and resolution of potential problems.
Transparency and Accountability: Digitising the monitoring process ensures greater transparency in the management of the portal project, thereby resolving the issue on time, reducing time and cost, and increasing project execution efficiency.
Resource Optimization: This portal supports the availability of predictable resources, which helps meet the country’s electricity demand at a reasonable price, ultimately benefiting the consumer.In order to inform the stakeholders about the implementation of the portal, hand-held training sessions have been organized for all the project developers. As a result, most of the developers have started entering the data on the portal on a monthly basis, which has further increased the monitoring process.
