AREVA wins $69.9 million Indian power grid deals

AREVA won four orders worth approximately US$69.9 million to supply Power Grid Corporation of India Ltd. 765 kV substations.

AREVA’s Transmission and Distribution division will deliver these projects in Lucknow and Ballia in Uttar Pradesh and Bina and Satna in Madhya Pradesh, in partnership with Larsen and Toubro Ltd. AREVA will manufacture a portion of the 765 kV equipment for these substations at its three recently inaugurated manufacturing sites in India dedicated to Extra High Voltage Transmission Products.

In 2007, the group had already supplied India’s first substation of this kind for the National Thermal Power Corporation at SIPAT, Chhattisgarh.

AREVA T&D India has now won six of twelve 765 kV substation projects so far awarded in India.

"We will continue to be actively involved in Power Grid’s plans to enhance its transmission capacities by developing its extra and ultra high voltage transmission networks," commented Michel Augonnet, Executive Vice President for AREVA’s Transmission and Distribution Systems business unit.
