Quality Power Unit Secures Rs 409 mn FACTS Project

A material step-down subsidiary of Quality Power Electrical Equipments Limited has secured an order for a Flexible AC Transmission Systems (FACTS) project valued at Rs 409 million (mn) exclusive of taxes. The contract represents a notable addition to the company’s project pipeline in the power transmission and energy infrastructure segment. The announcement highlights continued activity in high-voltage grid-stability solutions as utilities and developers seek to enhance network performance.

FACTS installations provide dynamic voltage control and reactive power compensation across transmission corridors, improving utilisation of existing assets and reducing losses on long-distance interconnections. Such systems support more stable voltage profiles and enable operators to manage congestion without immediate investment in new lines. The technology is widely used to integrate variable renewable generation while maintaining system reliability.

Deployment of FACTS equipment generally involves detailed engineering, supply of power electronic modules and transformers, integration with existing substation control systems and comprehensive testing prior to commissioning. These stages demand coordination across suppliers, contractors and grid operators to meet technical specifications and regulatory requirements. Efficient project execution therefore contributes to timely augmentation of transmission capacity and operational flexibility.

For Quality Power Electrical Equipments Limited, the order strengthens the firm’s order book and adds visibility to near-term execution within its transmission segment. The contract bolsters the unit’s credentials in delivering grid modernisation solutions to utilities and large power consumers and contributes to the company’s broader strategy in energy infrastructure. The firm will reflect the addition in its project disclosures and continue to pursue opportunities in high-voltage and grid-stability markets.
