- With this addition, AESL’s order book now totals ₹54,761 crore, reflecting significant growth in its project portfolio.
- The project is set to be completed in 4.5 years on a Build, Own, Operate, and Transfer (BOOT) basis, showcasing AESL’s commitment to timely and efficient project delivery.
- Upon completion, AESL’s transmission network will expand to 25,778 circuit kilometers (km) and 84,186 megavolt-amperes (MVA) of transformation capacity, strengthening its position as a leader in India’s power transmission sector.
The country’s largest private transmission and distribution business, Adani Energy Solutions Ltd (AESL), has announced the purchase of a massive 25,000 crore project, marking a major step towards strengthening India’s renewable energy infrastructure. AESL’s largest order to date, this High Voltage Direct Current (HVDC) project will create a reliable transmission link between Bhadla in Rajasthan and Fatehpur in Uttar Pradesh.
This complex project’s main goal is to make it easier for 6,000 megawatts (MW) of renewable energy produced in resource-rich areas of Rajasthan to be transferred to northern India’s energy-demanding centers. The project’s seamless integration of this enormous amount of green energy into the national grid aligns with India’s objective for an environmentally benign and sustainable energy future.
The HVDC system has a 7,500 megavolt-ampere (MVA) transmission capacity and spans over 2,400 circuit kilometers (ckm). The project will be carried out on a Build, Own, Operate, and Transfer (BOOT) basis and is expected to be finished in 4.5 years. This approach demonstrates AESL’s commitment to effectively and sustainably completing major infrastructure projects.
AESL’s order book has grown to an astonishing 54,761 crore with the acquisition of this project, demonstrating the company’s strategic growth and its crucial role in India’s power transmission industry. When finished, AESL’s transmission network will have a transformation capacity of 84,186 MVA and span 25,778 ckm, further establishing its dominance in the sector.
The project’s importance was underlined by AESL CEO Kandarp Patel, who said, “AESL is playing its role in India’s decarbonization journey by enabling efficient evacuation of renewable energy from some of the most inhospitable regions of the country and connecting them to the national grid.” In addition to lowering carbon emissions, this program helps the country achieve its objective of raising the proportion of renewable energy in its total energy mix.
As the only private sector company in India to own an HVDC asset, AESL distinguishes out since this technology is favored for long-distance power transmission because of its dependability and efficiency. After the successful completion of the Mundra-Mahendragarh project and the continuing Aarey-Kudus project, which is being carried out by its subsidiary, Adani Electricity Mumbai Ltd (AEML), AESL’s third HVDC endeavor is the Bhadla-Fatehpur project.
This historic project demonstrates AESL‘s steadfast dedication to developing sustainable and creative solutions to improve India’s energy infrastructure. By utilizing state-of-the-art technology and following industry best practices, AESL hopes to complete the Bhadla-Fatehpur HVDC project on time and with the least possible environmental impact, greatly advancing the country’s goals for renewable energy.
