Training and development is an attempt to improve the current and future employee
performance. It is an organized by which employees will learn knowledge skills and attitudes
for a job purpose.
Training and development need = standard performance actual performance. The
department head will raise a note of approval to the GM through the finance commercial and
administration manager regarding certain essential contribution to the organization but also
with the following aspects.
Increase morale of employee
Employees efficiency and
Better human relations
Reduced supervision
Increase organizational viability and flexibility
IMPORTANCE OF THE STUDY:
The importance of human resource management to a large extent depends on human
resource development. For human resource development, training is the most important
technique. As stated earlier, no organization can get a candidate who exactly matches with the
job and the organizational requirements. Hence, training is important to develop the
employee and make him suitable to the job.
The increasing competition among other things increases the significance of training.
Training matches the employee with the job from time to time. Further the trained employees
invite organizational change and ready to take up any type of assignment. The success of any
organization to a greater extent depends on the amount, qualitative and timely training
provided by that organization.
NEED FOR THE STUDY:
Cost factor in training should be taken into consideration in evaluating the training
effectiveness. Cost of various techniques of training and their value in the form of reduced
learning time, improved learning and higher performance can be taken into account. Cost of
training includes cost of employing trainers, providing the means to learn, maintenance and
running of training centers, wash low level of production, opportunity cost of trainees etc.
The value of the training includes increased value of human resource of both the
trainee and trainers and their contribution to raise their contribution to raise production,
reduce wastages breakage minimization of time requirement etc., cost-value relationship of
training programmer or a training technique is helpful determining the priorities for training
matching the employee and job through training.
Training is the corner stone of sound management. It makes employees more effective
of productive. It is connected with all personal and managerial activities there is present need
for training measures so that new changes techniques may be taken advantage and
improvement affected in new methods.
Therefore there is a need to study the effective implementation of training and

INDUSTRY PROFILE
The electric power industry provides the production and delivery of electric energy,
often known as power, or electricity, in sufficient quantities to areas that need electricity
through a grid connection. The grid distributes electrical energy to customers. Electric power
is generated by central power stations or by distributed generation.
Many households and businesses need access to electricity, especially in developed
nations, the demand being scarcer in developing nations. Demand for electricity is derived
from the requirement for electricity in order to operate domestic appliances, office
equipment, industrial machinery and provide sufficient energy for both domestic and
commercial lighting, heating, cooking and industrial processes. Because of this aspect of the
industry, it is viewed as a public utility as infrastructure.
Energy is required for everything that we do, and it is the next important thing apart
from the food upon which the lives of nations depend. Lack of power could cause economies
to cripple. The flourishing power generation industry is considered to be a sign of prosperity
for any nation.
Energy comes in various forms but electrical energy is the most convenient form of
energy since it can be transported with ease, generated in a number of different ways, and can
be converted into mechanical work or heat energy as and when required. In this article we
will learn about a few of the most commonly used methods of generating electrical energy.
THE POWER PLANT:
Power or energy is generated in a power plant which is the place where power is
generated from a given source. Actually the term generated in the previous sentence is a
misnomer since energy cannot be created or destroyed but merely changed from one form to
the other. More correctly, a power plant can be said to be a place where electrical energy is
obtained by converting some other form of energy. The type of energy converted depends on
what type of power plant is being considered.
In the industrial use of the word, the term power plant also refers to any arrangement
where power is generated. For example the main engine of a ship or an airplane for that
matter.
Nuclear power is a significant energy source in some countries like Germany and
France. Its critics always cite safety concerns because of what happened at the Chernobyl
reactor. The meltdown and resulting explosion spewed clouds of radioactive material into
much of Europe and is the leading cause of birth defects due to genetic mutations. There is a
new nuclear reactor technology that uses ceramics for its core. Ceramics can prevent
meltdowns because it has a very high tolerance for extreme heat.
Hydroelectric power is the alternative energy chosen by some countries who do not
want nuclear plants due to safety concerns. This is a viable alternative when a country has
sufficient water supplies. The largest dam for years is the Hoover Dam in the U.S. between
the borders of Arizona and Nevada. Today, that distinction now belongs to the Three Gorges
Dam in mainland China. When it becomes operational in 2011, it will be the largest
hydroelectric power station in the world producing some 22,500 megawatts.
The argument against building dams to produce electricity is dislocation of the people
living nearby and the resulting changes to the environment.
The dam made many historical monuments, archaeological sites and cultural villages
now underwater and gone forever. This Chinese dam spans the Yangtze River in the Hubei
province and is the largest civil works project since the construction of the Great Wall. A
reason for building this giant dam is flood control along the entire Yangtze River. Estimated
total cost of this project is US$25 billion when completed and it needs to generate about
1,000 terawatts in 10 years for its construction costs to be fully recovered. China has a 14facility hydropower long-term development plan in place until 2020.
DIFFERENT TYPES OF POWER PLANTS:
Steam power plants use fuels such as petroleum, coal, or biomass are burned to heat
water to create steam, the pressure of the steam spins a turbine turning the copper wire inside
the generator.
Geothermal power plants are steam power plants that tap into steam released from the
earth. Once used the water is returned to the ground.
Gas power plants use fuels that are burned to create hot gases to spin the turbine.
Nuclear power plants nuclear generators use nuclear fission to turn water into steam.
This drives the steam turbine, which spins a generator to produce power. A pound of highly
enriched uranium can power a nuclear submarine or nuclear aircraft carrier is equal to
something on the order of a million gallons of gasoline.
Wind power plants use the wind to push against the turbine blades, spinning the
copper wires inside the generator to create an electric current.
Hydroelectric dams use falling (or flowing) water to spin the turbine blades. Coal
plants burn coal to drive a steam engine. Coal is plentiful, but the collateral damage is
extreme.
Fossil fuel power plants burn oil to drive a steam engine. Burning fossil fuels is increasingly
expensive, and highly polluting. Oil supplies will run very thin in the coming decades.
PERFORMANCE:
The capital-intensive power industry suffered tremendous losses due to the economic
recession. Industry analysts have revealed that there was a staggering 50% decline in the
number, value and capacity of new projects between the beginning of the credit crunch in Q3
2008 and Q3 2009. There is a silver lining though, as analysts believe figures for Q3 2009
have shown signs of positive growth.
Going forward, it is believed the hotspots of activity will primarily be in India, China
and the UK. As well as new builds, there are also significant opportunities for synergies
across the global energy supply chain with industry and governments keen to invest in and
adopt new technologies. In order to best capitalize on these new opportunities, major
contractors and companies across the energy supply chain have begun to work together more
closely, to streamline their operating and procurement procedures.
India has the fifth largest electricity generation capacity in the world. The total
installed capacity of India is ~150,000 MW, of which majority of generation, transmission
and distribution capabilities with either public sector companies or with State Electricity
Boards (SEBs). Only ~15% capacity is from the private sector, though this is now beginning
to increase. Market research suggests ~65% of Indias total installed capacity is contributed
by thermal power with the Western and Southern regions each accounting for ~30%.
Due to unbalanced growth and rural-urban disparity, only ~40% of rural household
have access to electricity versus ~80% of urban households. Key players include National
Thermal Power Corporation Limited, Nuclear Power Corporation of India Limited, North
Eastern Electric Power Corporation Limited, Power Grid Corporation of India and Tata
Power.
GROWTH POTENTIAL:
The Indian power sector is experiencing a large demand-supply gap. At present, the
energy shortage in the India is ~10% but there are States where the energy shortage is as high
as 25%. To combat this, over 80,000 MW of new generation capacity is planned in the next
five years. A corresponding investment is required in Transmission and Distribution
networks.
The Indian Ministry of Power has set a goal, Mission 2012: Power for all and
released a comprehensive sector development blueprint. The main objectives, in addition to
providing 100% access to power, are to provide sufficient power to achieve targeted GDP
growth rate of 8%, provide reliable and good quality power and to enhance commercial
viability.
A huge capital investment of about US$ 200 billion is required to meet Mission 2012
targets. This has welcomed numerous global companies to establish their operations in India
under the famous PPP (public-private partnership) programs. Additional massive capital
investment is further required over the subsequent years with the countrys power requisite
expected to touch 800,000 MW by 2031-32.
FUTURE PROSPECTS:
Due to the influx of foreign companies, and the ramping up of operations by domestic
companies, the industry is experiencing a hiring spike. New graduates would be advised to
seek an initial position in one of the larger companies as there will be specific training
courses and more opportunities for someone starting out. Given the breadth of the power
industry, it is possible to work with a range of different technologies and disciplines
depending upon your preferences.
All of the large power-generation companies are looking for graduates and
A law passed by the state legislature receives acknowledgment from the President of
India.
POST LIBERALIZATION:
Understanding the critical part played by the power industry, the Union government
passed several laws and restructured the Power Industry to gear it up to meet the challenges
posed to the Indian economy post Liberalization.
ELECTRICITY BILL 2001
Learning from the experience gained through various reform initiatives, the Indian
government passed the Electricity Bill 2001.The Bill seeks to
To address the issues of developing industry including regulation, power trading, non
discriminatory open access, choice of dispensing with vertically integrated state
enterprises and encouraging private enterprise.
COAL:
It is the most easily available fossil fuel in the world. It is mostly carbon and is used
as a combustion fuel, especially after the Industrial Revolution. Coal can further be divided
into lignite, bituminous and anthracite. Lignite and Bituminous have lesser percentage of
carbon and therefore burn faster. They are not environmentally friendly, Whereas Anthracite
has about 98% carbon and therefore burns slowly and is more environmentally friendly. Coal
can be found in both underground mines and open mines.
Though Petroleum gained prominence through the 20th century, coal still continues to
be the most used raw material for power generation.
OIL AND GAS:
Oil and Gas is mostly found in underground rocks. Millions of years ago when plants
and animals died, they got buried in layers of mud and sand. The earth's crust changed its
shape and put immense pressure and heat on the dead plants and animals. Over a period of
time, the energy in those plants and animals changed into hydrocarbon liquids and gases.
They then turned into chemicals called hydrocarbons .Most of the hydrocarbons is found
under the sea bed. Oil has a disastrous effect on the environment and many scientists believe
the
main
reason
for
global
warming.
Natural gas is usually found near a source of oil. It is a mixture of light hydrocarbons.
It is lighter than air and is odorless. It is therefore mixed with a chemical that gives it a strong
our and thereby easy to detect in case of a leak. It is the cleanest burning fossil fuel.
RENEWABLE ENERGY:
Because of the environmentally disastrous effect of non renewable energy, an
alternate source of energy which would not pollute the environment and which can also be
renewed was tapped. They are known as renewable energy. The various types of renewable
energy.
SOLAR ENERGY:
It is the most easily available renewable resource. After the oil shock in 1970's many
countries conducted research work to tap solar energy. It is believed in the next few years
millions of consumers across the world would switch to solar energy. In India the Indian
Renewable Energy Development Agency and the Ministry of Non Conventional Energy
Sources are devising strategies to encourage the usage of solar energy.
Solar energy can be used for cooking, heating, drying, distillation, electricity, cooling,
refrigeration, cold storage etc.
HYDEL ENERGY:
Energy available in fast flowing water can be used to generate electricity. Waves
occur due to the interface of the wind with surface of sea and represent a transfer of energy.
This energy can be tapped for commercial purpose.
HYDRO POWER:
It is the one of the best, cheapest and cleanest source of power, though large dams
could have environmental and social repercussions. In view of these problems associated
with larger dams, experts have advocated the construction of smaller dams. New
environmental laws to safeguard the planet from the effects of global warming have made
smaller hydropower projects more viable.
WIND ENERGY:
It is the kinetic energy used for many centuries in water sports like sailing and for
irrigation. It converts kinetic energy into more usable forms of power. Wind turbines help to
convert the energy in the wind into mechanical energy which can be used for generating
power. Since the late 1980's the viability of wind energy has gained in prominence across the
globe. In India the states of Tamil Nadu and Gujarat lead in the field of wind energy.
BIOMASS:
It is sourced from the carbonaceous waste of animals and is also the by products from
timber industry, agricultural crops, raw material from forest, household waste and wood. It
can be used to generate power with the same power plant that are burning fossil fuels and is
very much environmentally friendly.
It is being used in the western countries for applications such as combined heat and
power generation. In India 90% of the rural households and 15% of the urban households use
bio mass fuel.
NUCLEAR ENERGY:
Nuclear energy can be created in nuclear reactors under strict human control. The
nuclear power can be generated by the fission of uranium, plutonium or thorium or the fusion
of hydrogen into helium. Nowadays mostly Uranium is used for generating nuclear power.
With a view to increase India's dependence on nuclear energy to offset the energy crisis in the
country, the Indian government entered into an agreement with the government of USA called
the 123 agreement. This agreement aims to assuage greater cooperation between the two
countries in the field of nuclear technology.
FUTURE TRENDS:
According to experts the private sector would play a greater role in power generation
and foreign investments would increase considerable in his sector.
The government of Indias Hydrocarbon vision 2025 gives in details the guidelines for
the policies in India for the next 25 years to attract investment in exploration,
production, refining and distribution of petroleum products.
Thermal Power in India is mainly generated through coal, gas and oil. India coal
power forms a majority share of the source of power supply in India. The electric
power in India is generated at various thermal power stations in India. The power
generated at these thermal power plants is then distributed all over India through a
network of powergrid at regional and national levels. The power ministry organization
responsible for the thermal power management in India is the NTPC.
Wind Power in India is available in plenty as India witnesses high intensity winds in
various regions due to the topographical diversity in India. Efforts have been made to
utilize this natural source of energy available free of cost for wind power generation.
Huge wind energy farms have been set up by the government for tapping the wind
energy by using gigantic windmills and them converting the kinetic energy of the
wind into electricity by the use of power converters. The wind power advantages start
with the very fact that a wind energy power plant does not require much infrastructure
input and the raw material i.e. wind itself is available free of cost.
Nuclear Power in India is generated at huge nuclear power plants and nuclear power
stations in India. A nuclear power plant generates the electricity using nuclear energy.
All the nuclear power plants in India are managed by the Nuclear Power Corp of India
Ltd (NPCL). The electricity from all India nuclear plants is distributed by the NPCL
as per the nuclear power project scheme.
Biogas Production in India is still in its infancy stage. Also the number of biogas
plants in India is still very low. India being the largest domestic cattle producer has
plenty of biogas fuel and thus utilization of the fuel for mass biogas production by
setting up more biogas plants in India would solve the power shortage problem to
some extent.

TABLE 1.0
A generating station, which converts heat energy of coal combustion into electrical
energy, is known as thermal power station.
A thermal power station is basically works on Rankin cycle. Steam is produced in the
boiler by utilizing the heat of coal combustion. The produced steam is the expanded in the
steam turbine (Prime Mover) and is condensed in condenser to be fed to the boiler again. The
steam turbine drives the alternator, which converts mechanical energy of the turbine in to
electrical energy. These are located where coal and water are available in abundance.
Although thermal power station simply involves the conversion of heat of coal
combustion in the electrical energy, yet it embraces many arrangements of proper working
and efficiency.
The whole arrangement of production process can be divided into the following stages.
Coal and ash handling arrangement
Steam generating plant.
Steam turbine
Alternator
Feed water
Cooling arrangement
COAL AND ASH HANDLING ARANGEMENT::
The coal is transported to the KTPS byroad or rail from near by Singareni Collieries
and is stored in coal storage plant. Then coal is diverted to coal handling plant where it is
crushed, thus the crushed coal is fed to the mills through belt conveyers. Coal is pulverized in
the mills then fed to the boiler through belt conveyers.
Coal is pulverized in the mills then fed to the mills through belt conveyers. Coal is
pulverized in the mills then fed to the boiler through vapor fans. The coal is burnt in the
boiler and the ash handling plant for further disposal. The removal of ash from boiler furnace
is necessary for proper operation of boiler.
and LP. In turbine the super heated steam is converted into mechanical energy, which in the
condenser from LP turbine is condensed by means of cold-water recirculation.
ALTERNATOR:
The steam turbine is coupled to an alternator. The alternator converts mechanical
energy of the turbine into electrical energy. Then the electrical power is delivered to the grid.
FEED WATER:
The condensate from the condenser is used as feed water to the boiler, some water
may be loosed in the cycle, which is suitable made up from DM plant. The feed water on its
way to the boiler is heated by water heaters (LPHs and HPHs) and economizer. This helps
in raising overall efficiency of the plant.
COOLING ARRANGEMENT:
In order to improve the efficiency of the plant the steam exhausted from the turbine is
condensed by means Condenser. Water is drawn from a natural source of supply such as river,
canal or CW pump house, and is re circulated through the condenser. Circulating water take
up the heat of the exhaust steam and itself becomes hot. This hot water coming out from
condenser is discharged on cooling tower at CW pump house. The cold water in the cooling
tower is reused in the condenser.

TRAINING METHODOLOGY:
INTRODUCTION:
Employee training is a specialized function and is one the fundamental operative
functions for human resources management.
Training is a shout-term educational process and utilizing a systematic and organized
procedure by which employees learn technical knowledge and skills for a definite purpose.
In other words training improves, changes, moulds the employees knowledge, skill,
behavior, aptitude, and attitude towards the requirements of the job and organization.
Training refers to the teaching and learning activities carried on for the primary purpose of
helping members of an organization , to acquire and apply the knowledge, skills, abilities and
attitudes needed by a particular job and organization .
Organization and individual should develop and progress simultaneously for their
survival and attainment of mutual goals. So every modern management has to develop the
organization through human resource development. Employee training is a specialized
function and is one of the fundamental operative functions for human resources management.
MEANING:
After an employee is selected placed and introduced he or she must be provided with
training facilities. Raining is the act of increasing the knowledge and skill of an employee for
doing a particular job. Training is short-term educational process and utilizing a systematic
and organized procedure by which employees learn technical knowledge and skills for a
definite purpose. Dales definition beach define training as,
DEFINITIONS:
Training can be defined as The organized procedure by which people learn
knowledge and |or skill for a definite purpose. (Dale S. Beach)
In other words, training improves, changes, moulds the employees knowledge, skill,
behavior, aptitude and attitude towards the requirements of the job and organization.
Training consists of planned program designed to improve performance at the
individual group and/or organizational level which in turn gives measurable change in
knowledge, skill, and/or social behaviour. (Wayne Cassio)
Training is the process of teaching a new employee the basic skill they need to
perform their job. (Gray Dessler)
PRINCIPLES OF TRAINING:
MOTIVATION:
As the effectiveness of an employee depends on how well he is motivate u
management, the effectiveness of learning also depends on motivation. Thus the training
must be released to the desires of trainee such as more wages or better job, recognition,
status, promotion, etc. The trainer should find out the proper ways to motivated experienced
employees who are already enjoying better facilities in case of re-training.
PROGRESS INFORMATION:
It has been found by various research studied that there is a relation between learning
rapidly and effectively and providing right information specially and as the trainer should not
give excessive information that can be misinterpreted. So, the trainer has to provide only the
required amount of progressive information especially to the trainee.
REINFORCEMENT:
The effectiveness of the trainee in learning new skills or acquiring new knowledge
should be reinforcement are promotions, rise in pay, praise etc., negative reinforcement is
punishments. Management should take proper care to award the successful trainees.
PRACTICE:
A trainee should actively participate in the training program in order to make the
learning program an effective one. Continuous and long practice is highly essential for
effective learning. Jobs are broken down into elements from which the fundamental physical,
sensory and mental skills are extracted.
FULL Vs PART:
It is not clear whether it is best to teach the complete job at a stretch or deciding the
job into parts and teaching each part a time. If the job is complex and requires a too long to
learn, it is better to teach part of the job. Generally the training process should start from the
known and process should start from the known and process to the unknown and from the
easy to the difficult parts are thought. However, the trainer has to reach the trainees based on
this judgment on their motivation and convenience.
INDIVIDUAL DIFFERENCE:
Individual training is costly, and group training in economically viable and
advantageous to the organization. But individuals vary in intelligence and aptitude from
person. So the trainer has to adjust program to the individual abilities aptitude.
