REC Power Development and Consultancy (RECPDCL) handed over Khavda IV C Power Transmission to Sterlite Grid 38 to evacuate 7 GW of renewable energy from the Khavda Renewable Energy Park in Gujarat.

Sterlite Grid 38, a subsidiary of Sterlite Power, won the project in the tariff-based competitive bidding process. It will commission the project in the next 24 months on a build, own, operate, and transfer basis and maintain it for 35 years.

The work involves the establishment of 4×1500 MVA, 765/400 kV and 2×500 MVA, 400/220 kV Boisar-II (GIS) S/s with 2×330 MVAR, 765 kV bus reactors and 2×125 MVAR, 420 kV bus reactors.

The scope of the work covers establishing, operationalizing, and maintaining the project and completion of all the activities for the project, including survey, detailed project report formulation, arranging finance, project management, necessary consents, clearances and permits, land compensation, design, engineering, equipment, material, construction, erection, testing, and commissioning.

The Phase-IV (Part A to E) transmission program has been planned to enable the evacuation of an additional 7 GW (beyond 15 GW) renewable energy from the Khavda RE park.

The scope of work also includes setting up a STATCOM station at Boisar-I and Navsari, offering a safe and stable system to balance sudden power imbalances.

RECPDCL had handed over Tumkur-II REZ Power Transmission to G R Infraprojects (GRIL) to evacuate 1.5 GW of power from the Tumkur Renewable Energy Zone in Karnataka.

Recently, Adani Energy Solutions bagged Khavda IV A Power Transmission to evacuate 7 GW of renewable energy from the Khavda Renewable Energy Park.

In August 2024, RECPDCL handed over Bhadla-III Power Transmission to Power Grid Corporation of India. The project involves developing an additional 20 GW transmission system for the evacuation of power from Bhadla-III PS as part of the Rajasthan Renewable Energy Zone Phase-III.
