KEC International, an RPG Group company, has bagged substation orders from the Kazakhstan Electricity Grid Operating Company (KEGOC) and Power Grid Corporation of India (PGCIL) totalling Rs 980 crore.
Two orders from KEGOC worth Rs 942 crore are for the execution, including rehabilitation of 38 substations that are across the North-East and South of Kazakhstan.
The first order is for 21 substations of 1150 KV, 500 KV and 220 KV levels, while the second is for 17 substations of voltage levels 500 KV, 220 KV and 110 KV.
The work is scheduled for completion in 33 months and bid in consortium with a local partner.
