Maharatna power PSU, Power Grid Corporation of India Limited (PGCIL), has been awarded a transmission project worth Rs 2,735 crore in Rajasthan. The project is part of the government’s comprehensive plan to evacuate 5.5 GW of renewable energy from the Jaisalmer and Barmer Complex.

PGCIL announced on Thursday that it had received the Letter of Intent (LoI) for the Rajasthan Ph-IV (Part 2: 5.5GW): Part F project. The scope of work includes the construction of a 765/400/220 kV Barmer-I pooling substation, along with 765 kV and 400 kV transmission lines and bay extensions.

Approved by the National Committee on Transmission (NCT) in its 14th meeting, this project is seen as a crucial component of India’s broader strategy to bolster transmission infrastructure for renewable energy. The new Barmer-I substation will integrate renewable energy into the national grid, contributing to the country’s ambitious renewable energy goals.

This transmission line development underlines the government’s commitment to enhancing green energy capacity and reflects PGCIL’s continued role in expanding India’s energy infrastructure. With the completion of this project, the country will move closer to achieving its clean energy objectives.
