BHEL Bags New Orders from MAHAGENCO & Hitachi Energy India
Bharat Heavy Electricals Limited (BHEL), a leading heavy electrical equipment company, has secured two major orders, further expanding its order book. The company has bagged one order from Maharashtra State Power Generation Company Limited (MAHAGENCO) and another in consortium with Hitachi Energy India.
In a significant development, BHEL has been awarded a massive order from MAHAGENCO for the BTG (Boiler, Turbine, and Generator) package of the 2×660 MW Koradi Thermal Power Station. The order is valued at a whopping ₹8,000 crore, making it one of the largest orders in the company’s recent history.
The Koradi Thermal Power Station is a significant project aimed at increasing the power generation capacity of Maharashtra, and BHEL’s involvement will ensure that the project is completed efficiently and effectively. The company will be responsible for designing, manufacturing, and executing the BTG package, which includes boilers, turbines, and generators.
The second order, secured in consortium with Hitachi Energy India, is for the BF800 HVDC Project. This project involves the design and execution of an HVDC (High-Voltage Direct Current) link to transmit 6000 MW of renewable energy. The HVDC link will enable the efficient transmission of renewable energy from remote locations to consumption centers, thereby reducing the carbon footprint of the power sector.
The BF800 HVDC Project is a landmark initiative aimed at promoting the integration of renewable energy sources into the grid. BHEL’s partnership with Hitachi Energy India, a leading global player in the field of HVDC transmission, demonstrates the company’s commitment to innovation and its ability to collaborate with international partners.
The orders are a testament to BHEL’s expertise in the field of power generation and transmission. The company has a long history of delivering complex projects on time and within budget, and these orders are a demonstration of its capabilities.
“BHEL is pleased to have secured these significant orders, which further reiterate the company’s position as a leading player in the power sector,” said a senior company official. “We are committed to delivering high-quality projects that meet the needs of our customers and contribute to the growth of the country’s power sector.”
The orders are also a significant boost to BHEL’s order book, which has been growing steadily in recent months. The company has secured several major orders in the past year, including orders from Adani Energy Solutions and other leading power sector companies.
In conclusion, BHEL’s orders from MAHAGENCO and Hitachi Energy India are a significant development in the company’s journey towards becoming a leading player in the global power sector. The orders demonstrate BHEL’s expertise in power generation and transmission, its ability to collaborate with international partners, and its commitment to delivering high-quality projects that meet the needs of its customers.
