The state power utility has completed the work of laying the electricity line required to provide adequate power supply for the development of the Noida International Airport at Jewar.
“We have completed the work of laying the electricity line so that the power supply meets the demand of the Yamuna International Airport Private Limited, which has started work on the boundary wall. They have 11 kilovolt and 33 kilovolt supply lines to draw the requisite amount of power necessary to carry out the development work,” said Punit Gupta, executive engineer of the Uttar Pradesh Power Transmission Corporation Limited, Gautam Budh Nagar district.
The UPPTCL has completed laying a 7km line that connects the power sub-station in Sector 32 to the site along the Jewar-Bulandshahr road, where the airport is being developed. Officials said the airport authority needs power for boundary wall work, levelling and digging related work.
