8RECPDCL has quietly issued Amendment-V to its tender documents, revising key bay layout configurations in the Velgaon substation project. 8This subtle update reflects REC’s recalibrated assumptions on load flow and future interconnectivity strategies, signaling a strategic shift in Maharashtra’s evolving power infrastructure landscape. 8Central to this amendment is the inclusion of an additional 500 MVA Inter-connecting Transformer (ICT), complementing the existing three ICTs specified earlier. This forward-looking provision highlights REC’s intent to future-proof the Velgaon substation, positioning it as a pivotal node in Maharashtra’s north-west corridor to meet increasing grid demands and ensure long-term network integration. 8The Velgaon substation’s upgraded design also enhances its role in regional power flow and grid reliability. Five critical Line-In Line-Out (LILO) connections, including major routes like Tarapur-Kudus and Dahanu-Versova, will be routed through this hub. This makes Velgaon a cornerstone for transmission equipment tenders and Indian power projects aimed at stabilizing the regional transmission grid and improving load balancing. 8As Maharashtra strengthens its transmission network, Amendment-V marks a significant development in the Indian power sector by aligning project specifications with the latest system studies and long-term strategic planning. 8The Velgaon substation is thus poised to become a high-leverage asset within India’s expanding transmission infrastructure, underpinning the reliability and scalability of power supply in the region.

8Rs. 800+ crore civil package for hydropower project faces multiple deadline extensions amid bidder readiness concerns 8This civil package encompassing powerhouse construction, tailrace channel, switchyard installation, and pressure shaft development—has experienced several deadline extensions. This has raised concerns about bidder readiness and the inherent complexity of the hydroelectric project 8The latest deadline shift intensifies questions surrounding the preparedness of contractors and the challenges of executing large-scale civil works in the hydropower sector. Multiple extensions often indicate ongoing backend alliance-building and joint venture (JV) negotiations. This is especially common in complex hydropower civil packages where the scope covers critical elements like shaft lining and switchyard infrastructure 8Large-scale hydro civil EPC contracts typically see delays in finalizing last-mile JV agreements, highlighting the intricacies involved in hydropower project execution and tendering processes. These factors collectively impact the timely commissioning of hydroelectric power projects and contribute to evolving project timelines in India’s renewable energy landscape.

8In a landmark push, CEA has mapped out a 63440 MW phased R&M/LE upgrade plan until 2046, targeting central, state, and private sector units aiming to optimize legacy capacity while meeting decarbonization goals. 8With grid stability at stake, the CEA mandates all TPPs to operate at 55% minimum load by 2026. Over 72% compliance achieved, as India ramps up for a 500 GW RE future. 8Facing escalating renewable intermittency, India leans on R&M/LE to extend plant life by 15–20 years, sidestepping the long gestation and cost of greenfield thermal projects. 8A six-chapter R&M framework now guides utilities on plant selection, bidding, viable business models, and regulatory compliance bringing structure to India’s ageing fleet overhaul. 8With only a fraction of 209 GW retrofitted for SO-control, vendors cite material shortages, high costs, and import restrictions. Penalties loom for non-compliant TPPs past 2027 8A JCOAL-led pilot suggests converting agricultural waste into “curl chips” matches Indian coal calorific value offering a scalable, cost-neutral path to cut emissions. 8As part of Phase I rollout, legacy units in Tamil Nadu and Karnataka undergo ESP retrofits, turbine revamps, and control system overhauls to enable low-load operations. 8Tests at major plants achieved 40% load operation, but fell short on ramp-up/down rates highlighting the need for hardware upgrades and operator retraining. 8From simulator-based operator training to co-fired fuel technology, international MOUs with Denmark and Japan are bringing critical technical depth to India's push for flexible, low-emission coal-fired operations. 8A three-phase ambient SO? survey reveals location-specific disparities.

8With tunneling and shaft construction at the heart of the project, the latest bid extension pushing the deadline into mid-June 8This raises fresh questions on bidder preparedness and terrain-specific challenges. 8The tunnel-intensive civil works tender has yet to close despite early announcements in February, with geological risk, access challenges, and contractor bandwidth emerging as possible factors. 8Revised guidelines in the latest corrigendum tweak scope parameters and timeline expectations particularly for steel liner and vertical shaft integration, a key challenge in Himalayan construction. 8With three parallel tender packages now running under one umbrella for the dam construction part, project authorities may be aiming to fast-track the work but will contractors bite?

81. India’s Pumped Storage Ambitions Hit 84 GW — 69 Projects Now Tracked 8With 69 projects totaling over 84,000 MW at various stages, India is quietly building a formidable pumped hydro backbone. From Maharashtra to Andhra, the off-river pipeline is booming. 2. Off-River Dominates India’s Pumped Storage Pipeline at 75% Share 8Of the 84 GW under development, nearly 64 GW comes from off-river projects — a clear signal of India’s pivot to flexible hydro capacity without river dependency. 3. Adani, Greenko, JSW, Tata Power, Torrent Among Key Developers in India’s PSP Boom 8Private players are driving the S&I phase, with DPRs underway for 47 projects. From Chhattisgarh to Andhra, industrial majors are securing terrain to match RE intermittency. 4. CEA Clears 4,100 MW of New PSPs — More Await Concurrence in 2025 8Turga, Bhavali, Upper Indravati, and Gandikota projects now hold CEA concurrence. But dozens more, backed by MoUs with states and PSUs, await clearance. 5. Maharashtra, Andhra, and Uttar Pradesh Lead in PSP Projects Under Survey 8Of the 47 projects under Survey & Investigation, these three states host more than half.

8Despite being marked for flexibility upgrades in CEA’s roadmap, NTPC’s Talcher STPS underperformed against daily schedules in both weeks, revealing persistent dispatch and maintenance challenges. 8GMR Kamalanga’s sharp drop in scheduled generation on 22 May from near-peak to partial load raises flags about fuel logistics or internal constraints in a plant otherwise known for low ECR 8NTPC’s Barh STPS ramped up scheduled and actual generation by over 20% between 14 and 22 May, but its ECR edged higher indicating load balancing came at a cost. 8While touted as nimble, private players in the ER like Hiranmaye and SJK saw larger gaps between scheduled and actual generation, exposing operational inconsistencies under peak load pressure. 8DVC units maintained flat, low ECRs and consistent generation yet remain absent from the CEA’s Phase I flexibility pilots, highlighting a possible policy blind spot. 8A week-on-week drop in generation at TVNL, Jharkhand, coupled with ECR increases, underscores legacy inefficiencies and supports CEA’s call for urgent R&M at the site. 8As eastern India entered a mini heatwave, several thermal units failed to match their schedules implying that even without RE ramping up, base-load units are struggling to stabilize the grid. 8Weekly ECR variations at plants like Bandel and Bakreswar highlight how theoretical flexibility benchmarks often don’t translate into cost-efficient ramping in operational timelines. 8 A nearly 30% generation jump at Darlipali between the two weeks suggests either a strategic dispatch reallocation or completion of maintenance, aligning with CEA’s flexible fleet targets. 8The weekly data shows state-run plants maintaining steadier ECRs despite fluctuating loads, whereas private IPPs displayed greater volatility, raising questions about cost-recovery and risk appetite Click on Details for moreDetails
