26 Oct 2015 Evaluate

ABB India has launched its first 800 kilovolt (kV) converter transformer manufactured at its Vadodara facility in Gujarat for the ultra-high voltage direct current (UHVDC) transmission link. It will be installed at PowerGrid’s Agra substation, part of the North East-Agra 800 kilovolt (kV), 6,000 MW, 1,750 km long, UHVDC transmission link.

UHVDC is the technology of choice for long-distance bulk power transmission and enables evacuation and transmission of clean energy from the North East to load centres of North India. It also brings cheaper power from the states of Madhya Pradesh and Chhattisgarh to the North Eastern Region with minimal losses.

ABB is a leader in power and automation technologies that enable utility, industry, and transport and infrastructure customers to improve their performance while lowering environmental impact. The ABB Group of companies operates in roughly 100 countries and employs about 140,000 people.
