A consortium of Hitachi Energy India and Bharat Heavy Electricals (BHEL) has won an order from Power Grid Corporation to design and execute the high voltage direct current (HVDC) link to transmit renewable energy from Khavda in Gujarat to the industrial center of Nagpur in Maharashtra.
The ±800 kV, 6,000 MW bi-pole and bi-directional HVDC link is part of the transmission system to transfer power from the potential renewable energy zone in the Khavda area of Gujarat under Phase-V (8 GW): Part A, which was awarded to Power Grid on tariff-based competitive bidding (TBCB) basis. This project crosses 1,200-kilometer (km) and feeds into the country’s 500-gigawatt (GW) renewable evacuation and interstate transmission system. The scope of the project includes converter transformers, AC/DC control and protection, gas-insulated high-voltage switchgear, thyristor valves, 765kV/400kV substation and auxiliary systems to be delivered by Hitachi Energy India along with its consortium partner BHEL, a leading Indian public sector company.
This project demonstrates Hitachi Energy’s sustained commitment to ‘Make in India’ efforts. In 2023, Hitachi Energy inaugurated a new advanced power systems factory in Chennai to support the acceleration of the energy transition, enabling the company to increase its production capacity. The new factory serves both the fast-growing Indian market and the large global demand for clean energy solutions as well as it caters to the rising number of HVDC projects in India and export to support global HVDC installations.
Hitachi Energy India is a global technology leader that is advancing a sustainable energy future for all.
