India Approves 7.34B Clean Energy Power Corridor
India has approved a high-capacity power transmission corridor costing 688 billion rupees to transport clean energy from western hubs to eastern demand centers. The 1,150-kilovolt system will support the nation's 2030 renewable energy targets.
India approved a 688 billion rupee ($7.34 billion) high-capacity power corridor to transport clean electricity from western generation hubs to eastern demand centres over a six-year period. The project introduces the nation's highest-voltage power network at 1,150 kilovolts, replacing standard 765-kilovolt lines to move larger volumes of energy nationwide. The national transmission panel cleared the initiative per meeting minutes released late Tuesday.
