SJVN has begun the river diversion work of the 210 MW Luhri Stage-1 hydro-electric project in Himachal Pradesh. With this, Luhri-1 Project enters the advanced stage of construction. In November 2020, the government approved an investment of Rs 1,810.56 crore for the 210 MW power project located on river Satluj in Himachal Pradesh. This project will generate 758.20 million units of electricity annually.
The completion of the 617-meter-long diversion tunnel is an important achievement for the project. Diversion of river water through the tunnel will pave the way for the construction of a coffer dam taking the company closer to its commissioning target.
SJVN’s principal business activity is electricity generation. The company is also engaged in the business of providing consultancy.
