Evolving EPC Models for High-Voltage Power Lines in India's Clean Energy Shift.

Image
India's power grid faces a tough challenge. Overinvesting in transmission could cost up to ₹9 trillion in stranded assets, while underinvestment risks leaving 50 GW of renewables unused and causing outages. EPC models , experts in engineering, procurement, and construction, are adapting their models for high-voltage power lines (400 kV to 1,100 kV) to efficiently deliver clean power from remote solar farms to cities (India's clean energy). India's aiming for 500 GW non-fossil capacity by 2030, heavy on solar and wind from spots like Khavda or Rajasthan deserts. The legacy 220 kV lines are no longer suitable for 500+ km and lead to losses. Now EPCs are rolling out 765 kV AC and HVDC lines that have 5-20 GW with losses under 5%. Overhead towers are a better option than underground cables, as they cost 10 times more and work best in cities, not over long distances. In the past, EPC work was straightforward: sketch towers, source steel, and place them on the ground. Howeve...

Building Reliable Power Infrastructure Through Disciplined Execution
