ANDRITZ has secured an order from Torrent Power for 3,000 MW Saidongar pumped storage project (PSP). The order value is in the low three-digit million euro range and will be included in ANDRITZ’s order intake for the first quarter of 2026.
The project, Saidongar-1 karjat, located in the state of Maharashtra, will be India’s largest pumped storage plant. Once operational, it will reduce carbon dioxide emissions by 4.55 million tonnes per year, roughly equivalent to taking around 1 million cars off the road annually. The annual energy production from the project will be 6,241 GWh.
ANDRITZ’s scope for the Saidongar-1 karjat project comprises the design, manufacture, installation, testing, and commissioning of ten reversible pump turbines, motor-generators, and related electromechanical equipment. The project with maximised local content, will be executed using ANDRITZ’s state-of-the-art manufacturing facilities in India, supported by the company’s global network.
