Engineering major Larsen & Toubro (L&T) announced that its Power Transmission & Distribution (PT&D) business has secured new orders valued at up to Rs 50 billion in India and the Middle East.

In India, the company will implement an Advanced Distribution Management System (ADMS) in West Bengal, integrating functionalities of the Outage Management System and Distribution Management System. This technology will enhance network reliability through real-time monitoring, quick fault isolation, and faster power restoration.

In the Middle East, L&T has secured multiple significant orders. In Saudi Arabia, it will construct a 380kV substation to facilitate solar power evacuation. In Kuwait, L&T’s PT&D vertical has won an order for a 400kV substation at a major city project. Additionally, in Dubai, the company will establish several Extra High Voltage (EHV) substations, including a 400/132kV substation, as part of the Emirate’s efforts to expand its power transmission infrastructure.

L&T's PT&D vertical has consistently secured high-value international contracts, including Rs 100 billion worth of orders in October 2024 for electricity grid expansion in the Middle East and Africa. The latest projects reaffirm L&T's strong presence in global power transmission and distribution markets.
