"Our Product viz. Electricity gets completely consumed and hence there is no scope of its recycling. Guidelines have been issued in line with National Environment Policy for disposal of hazardous wastes from NTPC power stations. The hazardous wastes generated at our power stations such as used transformer oil, used lubricants, lead acid batteries etc. are sold only to government approved recyclers or given back to the sellers for recycling under buy back arrangements, which takes care of 100% recycling of such wastes. Around 50.58% of the total ash generation from electricity generation has been used for various productive purposes during 2016-17. Important areas of ash utilization are – cement & asbestos industries, ready mix concrete plant (RMC), road embankment construction, brick/ block/ tile manufacturing, mine filling, ash dyke raising, and land development."
