Alstom T&D India bags contract worth Rs 106 crore

Alstom T&D India has received a contract worth Rs 106 crore (€13 million) from Reliance Industries (RIL) to provide power transformer packages for the expansion of Jamnagar refinery, the world's largest single location refinery complex located in Gujarat, India.

The contract is part of an ongoing expansion known as J3, which denotes phase three expansion of the jamnagar complex. Alstom T&D India had earlier teamed up with RIL for phase two expansion to supply generator transformers of 220 kV. In the third phase, Alstom will provide transformers to receive power at high voltages, and lower them to acceptable levels for distribution to newly expanded complexes; this includes Gasification plants, the Ethylene Cracker complex, and the Paraxylene plant.

The scope of the new contract includes designing, engineering, manufacturing, supply, supervision of erection, and commissioning of 14 gasification service transformers (174 MVA, 220/34.5 kV) and 3 generator step-up transformer packages (160 MVA, 14.5/231 kV). These transformers are integral components, essential for safe and efficient transmission of power on the electric grid. All transformers will be manufactured from Alstom T&D India's manufacturing facility in India.

Alstom T&D India flags off India’s largest 765 kV class generator single-phase transformer for Jaypee Group’s Bara Thermal Power project, Uttar Pradesh. Alstom T&D India is the leader and has the largest market share for 765 kV generator transformers among Indian manufacturers.
