22 May 2023 , 03:31 AM

L&T’s PT&D business has achieved two significant orders in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) for the construction of 380kV overhead power transmission lines. These transmission lines will connect major cities located along the Red Sea coast. The implementation of these systems will enhance ongoing projects that entail the installation of 400 kilometers of transmission lines, catering to the increasing energy needs of industrial and tourism centers in the region.

L&T’s PT&D business has also been awarded a contract to undertake the design, supply, and construction of a pivotal 380kV substation in the central region of Saudi Arabia. This substation holds significant importance as it will facilitate the integration of renewable energy capacity into the Kingdom’s electricity mix, aligning with their efforts to diversify towards non-fossil fuel sources. The substation will play a crucial role in efficiently evacuating renewable energy generated in the region.

In the domestic market, L&T’s PT&D Business has extended its successful track record in securing projects under the Revamped Reforms Based and Results-Linked Distribution Sector (RDSS) Scheme. The business has recently been awarded new orders from a notable Gujarat DISCOM, further strengthening its presence in this sector.

The projects involve upgrading and expanding the distribution infrastructure in three districts of southern Gujarat. The objective is to create a more efficient and resilient distribution network in these districts, including the towns covered under the AMRUT program.
