PGCIL Secures Projects to Evacuate 5.5 GW Renewable Power

Power Grid Corporation of India Limited (PGCIL) has recently secured major contracts for transmission projects designed to evacuate 5.5 gigawatts (GW) of renewable energy. This development is set to enhance India's capacity to integrate and distribute clean energy across the grid.

The awarded projects include critical infrastructure that will facilitate the transmission of electricity generated from various renewable sources, including solar and wind. These initiatives are crucial for meeting the country's growing demand for clean energy and supporting its ambitious renewable energy targets.

PGCIL?s new projects are expected to improve grid stability and efficiency by enabling better management and distribution of renewable power. The expansion of transmission infrastructure is essential for accommodating the increasing volume of renewable energy being added to the national grid.

This investment in transmission infrastructure aligns with India?s broader strategy to enhance its renewable energy capacity and reduce reliance on fossil fuels. The successful implementation of these projects will contribute significantly to achieving national energy goals and advancing the country?s sustainability agenda.
