Alstom Projects bags order worth over Euro 285 million from THDC

30 Jun 2011 Evaluate

Alstom Projects India (APIL) in consortium with Hindustan Construction Company (HCC) has bagged a contract worth over Euro 285 million by Tehri Hydro Development Corporation (THDC) to install a 1,000 MW variable speed pumped storage hydro power plant on the river Bhagtrathi in the state of Uttarakhand. It will be India’s first pumped storage power plant to use variable speed technology. The Tehri pump storage plant project is Alstom’s first contract with THDC and illustrates their confidence in Alstom’s technology and project expertise.  Alstom’s share of the contract is worth around euro 180 million.

According to the order, Alstom will supply four 250 MW variable speed turbine & generator units and other equipment including main inlet valves and control and protection systems. On completion, the plant’s electricity output will provide much-needed power to the country’s northern grid.

Pumped storage is the most efficient and flexible form of storing electricity on a large scale, enabling utilities to respond quickly to demand and replacing the fossil fuels traditionally used during peak demand periods with renewable, CO2 free energy. Variable speed pump turbines, which offer even greater efficiency, represent the latest innovation in pumped storage technology.

Alstom Projects is India’s leading environmental control systems provider with 3 GWs worth of orders, accounting for about 50% market share.
