Texmaco Completes HM Systems for 2,000 MW Subansiri Project

Texmaco Rail & Engineering has recently completed the erection and commissioning of Hydro-Mechanical (HM) systems for the 2,000 MW Subansiri Lower Hydroelectric Project located on the Arunachal Pradesh–Assam border, marking a major milestone in India’s renewable energy development.

The project is being developed by NHPC, which has already declared the commercial operation date for the first generating unit, with three additional units commissioned. The remaining four units are scheduled for phased commissioning through FY 2026–27.

As the sole hydro-mechanical contractor, Texmaco Rail & Engineering was responsible for the complete design, manufacture, supply, erection, testing and commissioning of the HM systems. These systems play a critical role in the safe and timely commissioning of the generating units.

With an installed capacity of 2,000 MW, the Subansiri Lower Hydroelectric Project is among the largest renewable energy projects in India and is expected to significantly strengthen power supply to the national grid while reducing dependence on fossil fuels.

The completion of the HM systems reinforces Texmaco’s capabilities in delivering complex, large-scale hydropower infrastructure and strengthens its position as a key contributor to India’s clean energy transition and Aatmanirbhar Bharat vision.
