Monitoring Greenhouse Gas Emissions
As part of a research partnership initiative between NTPC, EDF and the University of Toulouse (France), a comprehensive assessment has been carried out to identify net greenhouse gas (GHG) emission into the NT2 hydro system.
This research has enabled to develop a predictive water quality model to provide reliable estimation of GHG emissions for man-made reservoirs in tropical conditions.
Data collected to date indicate that the NT2 reservoir GHG emissions rate is far below from alternative thermal power stations.
