NTPC has begun transporting fly ash through inland waterways, as a pilot project, from Kahalgaon, Bihar to Pandu, Assam for use in cement manufacturing.



“For this pilot project, the first mile activity of bagging and loading of fly ash into barges will be done by NTPC and the cost of transportation will be taken care of by the Inland Waterways Authority of India and Star Cement,” an NTPC statement said.



“There is a huge demand for fly ash in this (North East) region, but due to limited availability of railway rakes and route congestion, only 15-22 rakes per month are being dispatched from NTPC Kahalgaon plant as against the potential of about 30 rakes per month,” it added.
