Hitachi Energy to power hydroelectric project in J&K

The operators of the site, Voith Hydro chose Hitachi Energy for its generator transformers and control and protection systems.

Hitachi Energy will power the Pakal Dul Power Project situated on the Marusudar. The project is possibly the biggest hydroelectric project in J&K, constituting a 548-feet-tall concrete-face rockfill dam expected to enhance the region’s power generation capacity through nature’s bounty. Underpinning this mammoth project is an underground powerhouse, capable of generating 1,000 megawatts of green electricity.

Germany-based Voith Hydro, which operates the site, chose Hitachi Energy for its generator transformers and control and protection system to ensure uninterrupted efficient and safe transmission of power at higher voltages from the hydropower plant.
