Tata Power Company Limited has commissioned two 765 kV extra high voltage (EHV) transmission corridors in Uttar Pradesh comprising the Mainpuri to Bara line spanning 380 circuit kilometres and the Mainpuri to Unnao line spanning 194 circuit kilometres, totalling 574 circuit kilometres. The corridors have been developed under the South East UP Power Transmission Company Limited (SEUPPTCL) project and are expected to strengthen the Northern Grid while enabling large scale power evacuation across the state. Once operational, the lines are expected to facilitate evacuation of over 3,000 MW of thermal power generated within Uttar Pradesh. The project, acquired by Resurgent Power Ventures Pte. Limited., a joint venture led by Tata Power, ICICI Bank and global investors, is part of the resolution of previously stressed power assets. The execution involved over 42,000 metric tonnes of tower steel, 6,900 kilometres of conductor stringing and completion of more than 100 major crossings, including railways, rivers and existing transmission corridors.
