RECPDCL Hands Over Lakadia Transmission Project to Reliance

Reliance Industries has been awarded the highly anticipated Lakadia B Power Transmission project, marking a significant development in India’s power transmission sector. The project, which falls under the ambit of the Tariff-Based Competitive Bidding (TBCB) route, was handed over by REC Power Development and Consultancy (RECPDCL), a subsidiary of the Maharatna CPSU, REC. The project will be developed on a Build, Own, Operate & Transfer (BOOT) basis, further solidifying Reliance’s foothold in the energy sector.

As the Transmission Service Provider (TSP), Reliance emerged as the winner after successfully navigating the competitive bidding process, which was managed by RECPDCL, the Bid Process Coordinator. This development is a significant step towards enhancing India’s power evacuation capabilities and fortifying its transmission infrastructure, particularly in Gujarat. The project is aimed at augmenting the transformation capacity at the Lakadia Pooling Station, a critical node in the country’s power transmission grid.

The estimated cost of the project is Rs 512.58 crore, with an implementation period set at 24 months. Once operational, the project will facilitate the evacuation of power from renewable energy generators in the region, particularly wind and solar power projects, thereby contributing to India’s renewable energy goals. The emphasis on power evacuation through this project will aid in managing the fluctuating nature of renewable energy generation, ensuring stable and reliable power transmission.

Reliance Industries’ involvement in this project underscores its growing presence in the infrastructure and energy sectors, where it continues to play a pivotal role in the nation’s energy transition. By securing such large-scale transmission projects, Reliance not only strengthens its portfolio but also supports India’s broader objective of sustainable energy development and enhanced energy security.

This transmission project is poised to make a significant impact on Gujarat’s energy landscape, facilitating better power distribution while meeting the rising energy demands of the region. The successful execution of the Lakadia transmission project will also likely set a precedent for future developments in the transmission space, proving essential in the long-term goal of achieving energy sustainability and grid stability across India.
