Project Details
The project, officially titled the "Transmission System for Green Hydrogen/Ammonia Manufacturing Potential in Mundra, Gujarat," involves a series of critical infrastructure upgrades. AESL will enhance the existing Navinal (Mundra) electrical substation by adding two large 765/400kV transformers. Additionally, a 75 km-long 765kV double-circuit transmission line will be constructed to connect this substation to the Bhuj substation.
Upon completion, the project will add 150 circuit kilometers (cKM) of transmission lines and 3,000 megavolt-amperes (MVA) of transformation capacity to AESL’s growing transmission network. This expansion will strengthen the electricity supply to Green Hydrogen and Green Ammonia production facilities, enabling large-scale sustainable energy generation.
Strategic Importance
This project plays a crucial role in India's clean energy transformation, aligning with the government's ambitious Green Hydrogen Mission. By enhancing power transmission infrastructure in the Mundra region, AESL is helping to establish a robust foundation for renewable energy-based industrial development.
The project was awarded through a Tariff-Based Competitive Bidding (TBCB) process, ensuring a fair and transparent selection of the best-suited bidder. PFC Consulting Limited acted as the bid process coordinator. The project’s special purpose vehicle (SPV) was formally transferred to AESL on March 20, 2025, marking a key milestone in its execution.
