| Project Detail |
The project aims to strengthen the State of Assam’s electricity transmission system by way of a) constructing new
transmission sub-stations and laying new transmission lines with the associated infrastructure, b) upgradation of existing
substations and associated transmission lines, and existing ground wire to optical power ground wire (OPGW). The project
will comprise three components:
(i) Component 1. Construction of about 24 new extra high voltage grid substations (400 kV, 220 kV and 132 kV) along with
the associated transmission lines.
(ii) Component 2. Upgradation of a) about 14 existing substations and associated transmission lines, and b) existing
ground wire to OPGW.
(iii) Component 3. Technical Assistance including a) engaging consulting services to strengthen Project Management during
the Project implementation, and b) organizing trainings and workshops on project implementation, and procurement of
new testing tools to improve the capacity of the Implementing Agency, c) Setting up of Enterprise Resource Planning
(ERP).
Objective To improve the reliability, capacity and security of the power transmission network in the State of Assam
Expected Results The Project is expected to result in improvement of the transmission network and a reduction in transmission losses. The
key results indicators are:
(i) Reduction in transmission losses (%)
(ii) Capacity of power transmission added in the State of Assam (unit: MW) |
