Sterlite Power has teamed up with Infravision to modernize India’s power transmission infrastructure using advanced, technology-driven construction methods.
India’s plan to build 50,000 ckm of transmission lines by 2030 underscores the need for efficient, scalable solutions, and Sterlite Power aims to be a key player in this transformation.
Through this partnership, Infravision will provide its innovative transmission construction technology to support 100% of Sterlite Power’s stringing needs across high-voltage projects, ranging from 400 kV to 765 kV.
This collaboration aims to expedite infrastructure delivery, aligning with the time-sensitive tariff-based competitive bidding (TBCB) model.
Sterlite Power is also committed to national capacity building, using this partnership to train local teams in advanced systems and enhance construction capabilities within India’s transmission sector.
