Alstom T&D India said on Tuesday that it has secured an order worth ₹ 151.50 crore from Rajasthan Rajya Vidyut Prasaran Nigam Ltd to supply a 400/220 kV sub-station in Bhadla and expand the existing sub-station in Bikaner.
“The new 400 kV sub-station will help evacuate power from the Bhadla solar park and other upcoming solar parks in the area, while expanding the sub-station at Bikaner will facilitate the exchange of solar power generation with the national grid,” the company said in a statement.
Alstom T&D will design, engineer, manufacture, install and commission the sub-station for Bhadla, while in Bikaner it will provide eight 400 kV bays, transformers, circuit breakers, control and protection relays. All the equipment will be from Alstom’s manufacturing facilities in India.
The projects are part of Rajasthan’s initiative to upgrade and scale the State’s transmission infrastructure for the transmission of clean energy to the national grid.
