State-run Power Finance Corporation Limited (PFC) has announced the incorporation of a Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV) named Kurnool IV REZ Power Transmission Limited through its wholly owned subsidiary, PFC Consulting Limited (PFCCL). This new SPV has been created to facilitate the development of the “Transmission System for Kurnool-IV REZ – Phase-II (3 GW)”.
The initiative aligns with Gazette Notification No. CG-DL-E-30032025-262168 issued by the Ministry of Power (MoP) on March 27, 2025, which designated PFCCL as the Bid Process Coordinator (BPC) for the project.
