The first project, “Transmission scheme for evacuation of power from Ratle HEP (850 MW) & Kiru HEP (624 MW): Part B,” has an estimated cost of ₹177.38 crore for Part I and ₹41.17 crore for Part II. It is set for commissioning by July 14, 2026, or in sync with Part A. This project will ensure seamless power evacuation from hydroelectric plants.
