L&T secures several orders to construct the grid components that will form the foundation of the shift to sustainable energy.
MUMBAI, JULY 29 : Engineering major Larsen & Toubro said on Monday that its Power Transmission & Distribution (PT&D) business has won new orders in India and abroad for establishing substations and transmission lines, which are crucial elements of the vast, interconnected electricity network. A strengthened grid speeds up the clean energy transition and ensures a reliable, resilient power supply.
In India, PT&D has received orders to execute two 765 kV double-circuit transmission line packages that are associated with the evacuation of power from Jaisalmer/Barmer Renewable Energy Zone in Rajasthan to substations in Madhya Pradesh for further interconnections.
In its pursuit of providing sustainable and efficient power supply, Saudi Arabia is strengthening the 380 kV network in the central region. PT&D has secured orders to build a 380kV substation and 380kV overhead line segments.
In the United Arab Emirates, PT&D has secured orders to construct a 220 kV substation and three 132 kV substations. Adding these substations to the network will help the utilities keep pace with the increasing electricity demand in Dubai and Abu Dhabi.(UNI)
