Power Grid Corporation of India (PGCIL) has operationalised its ultra-high voltage 1200 kV National Test Station (NTS) at Bina in Madhya Pradesh. This will help the company in increasing power carrying capacity.
The NTS is a research and development project which now will be monitored for two years and after that the Central Electricity Authority will take a call on replicating this technology in various parts of the country. This 1,200 kV station has the power carrying capacity which is five to six times more than the 400 kV stations for transmission of power. Thus this station will augment country’s transmission capacity many folds.
Power Grid Corporation of India is an Indian state-owned electric utilities company headquartered in Gurgaon, India. Power Grid transmits about 50% of the total power generated in India on its transmission network.
