Ahmedabad: Power transmission major, Sterlite Power, on Monday announced it has commissioned what is pegged as the largest green energy corridor project near Vadodara with an investment of Rs 2,024 crore. Some 5,000 MW power will be delivered from Bhuj and Kutch to the national grid under the Lakadia-Vadodara Transmission Project Limited.
The inter-state transmission line connects the 765/400kV substation at Lakadia to Vadodara through a 335-km long 765 kV double-circuit transmission line. The project also forms a critical part of the world’s largest 30,000 MW Hybrid renewable energy park coming up in Kutch. With 812 towers spanning seven districts in Gujarat, this power transmission corridor is also one of the largest transmission corridors built in India till date.
