Defence PSU Bharat Electronics, which is restructuring its businesses, is planning to enter the nuclear power space, designing and manufacturing instruments. The expenditure on the initiative had not been finalised as the discussion is yet to take place. Nuclear power instrumentation is one of the areas suggested by consulting firm KPMG, appointed by BEL to help identify future market opportunities for growth.

 

Areas such as nuclear power instrumentation, railways, homeland security and solar energy have been identified as new growth engines for BEL. BEL is aiming to generate an additional business of Rs 500 crore annually from these new lines of business.

In these relatively new areas of business, BEL is looking to make an investment in the region of Rs 300 crore - Rs 500 crore, as the company already has much of the infrastructure in place. Some factories would take additional load as the company is in the process of restructuring its businesses.

 

BEL and power equipment maker BHEL are currently studying the financial viability of their proposed joint initiative in solar energy, where the investment by the two companies would be almost Rs 2,500 crore if the PSUs decide to go ahead with the project.crackcrack
