New Delhi, Aug. 28

Power Grid Corporation of India Ltd (PGCIL) has announced the synchronisation of the North, East, North-East and western grids following the commissioning of the transmission system associated with the Tala hydel project in Bhutan and the East-North Interconnector system.

This is one of the largest synchronously connected grid in the world with a total generation capacity of 88,000 MW from 250 power plants, a PGCIL release said here. The synchronisation would facilitate free flow of power from surplus to deficit regions, it said.

The Tala transmission line project has been implemented by a joint venture of PowerGrid and Tata Power, the country's first public-private partnership in the transmission sector.
