India’s transmission network is witnessing rapid growth to cater to the country’s rising power demand and expanding generation capacity. In recent years, this growth has been marked by the physical expansion of the network and […]
As India accelerates towards its ambitious targets of achieving 500 GW of renewable energy capacity by 2030 and attaining net-zero emissions by 2070, the development of a robust power transmission network will play a pivotal […]
The road to energy transition in India depends not only on the speed of renewable energy capacity addition, but also on the transmission sector’s ability to move power across regions in the country. As per […]
Cross-border interconnections are becoming increasingly important as countries seek to strengthen energy security and integrate renewables into their grids. These links allow surplus power to flow across national boundaries and thus help balance seasonal and […]
The central government has set a 37 GW offshore wind target for 2030 and has approved Rs 7.45 billion viability gap funding package. Of this funding, roughly Rs 6.85 billion is dedicated to supporting the […]
The transmission segment in India has seen considerable growth in the past few years owing to increasing power demand as well as generation capacity addition. The need to evacuate large-scale renewable energy is further driving […]
Over the years, transmission tower designs have evolved significantly in order to reduce the right-of-way (RoW) requirement, ensure speedy execution of projects and withstand diverse environmental conditions. Utilities are increasingly adopting monopoles and multicircuit transmission […]
With increasing urbanisation, space is getting constrained in most parts of the country, thereby necessitating the installation of conductors requiring less right of way (RoW) and having high current carrying capacity. A number of new […]
Transmission line engineers involved in planning new lines and upgrades use aerial surveillance techniques to determine routes, select right tower foundations, etc. Further, the routine monitoring and inspection of power transmission lines through aerial surveys […]
Transformer technologies have evolved considerably to meet the emerging requirements of utilities and adapt to the changing grid. New designs and features have been driven by considerations such as space optimisation, lowering costs, increasing asset […]
