Background : The significant growth of the Indian economy, a changing demography, rising urban population and socio-economic developments have all contributed to the increasing demand for commercial energy. Meeting this demand is an enormous challenge for the power equipment industry, but it is also an opportunity. With the Indian power ministry’s resolution of “Power for all by 2012” taken in 2002, as well as the Electricity Act of 2003, the power industry opened up from the confines of the Central and State governments, and facilitated the entry of the private sector. It was formed to fulfill India’s need for quality power at optimum cost, by manufacturing subcritical and supercritical boilers, the preferred technologies for thermal power generation. A joint venture between Thermax Limited, Pune, India and Babcock & Wilcox Power Generation Group, Inc., USA, TBWES was registered under the Companies Act 1956 on 26th June, 2010 and a license agreement was signed between the two companies on 18th August 2010.
